What are common Amish women's & girls' names? I take you through 10 of the most common female names - plus 10 rare names.
I give some back story for each name, share where they are found, discuss Amish customs when choosing names for a baby, and more. Many Amish names have a Biblical origin - but many do not.
Beginning in 2004, I sold books door-to-door to the Amish. I visited over 5,000 Amish homes in the process. Since then I've been to dozens of Amish communities in 16 states. I write about the Amish at amishamerica.com/
