Lesly
“A variant spelling of Leslie or Lesley, from the Scottish place name Lesslyn in Aberdeenshire, possibly from the Gaelic leas cuinn meaning "garden of hollies" or from a pre-Gaelic source. The surname became a given name through Scottish aristocratic families, particularly Clan Leslie. The feminine spelling Lesley is traditionally used for women, Lesly being a further variant.”
Christian

It began as a descriptive title for early Christians and gradually became a personal name throughout medieval Europe, used for both men and women.”
Gaylord
“From the Old French gaillard meaning "lively, merry, bold" — a complimentary medieval adjective for a vigorously cheerful person. The word entered Middle English as a surname and eventually became a given name in America, primarily in the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. The medieval French root connects it to a tradition of courtly names praising physical and temperamental vitality.”
Graziella
“An Italian diminutive of Grazia, from the Latin gratia meaning "grace, favor, thanks" — the word that gives English its "grace" and "gratitude". Gratia in Roman culture referred to the exchange of favor and goodwill that structured social relationships, while in Christian theology it became the central concept of divine gift freely given. The diminutive form Graziella adds tenderness to the concept.”
Vita

Vita encompasses the entire span of existence from birth to death and was a central concept in Roman philosophy, medicine, and religion. The word gives English "vital", "vitality", "vitamin", and many other life-related terms.”
Marcella
“The Italian and Spanish feminine form of Marcellus, a Roman family name derived from Marcus — itself related to Mars, the Roman god of war, or possibly from the Etruscan. Marcella was the name of a wealthy fifth-century Roman widow who converted her household into a monastic community and was a disciple of Saint Jerome, making the name associated with learned female piety.”
