Snow
Derived from the Spanish word for snow, this name is often associated with the title of the Virgin Mary, Nuestra SeΓ±ora de las Nieves (Our Lady of the Snows). It is a lyrical choice that evokes a sense of purity and the quiet beauty of winter. While rare in the United States, it shares a similar sound and feel to the Irish name Niamh.
