Thalia
__DEGRADED__ Thalia is graceful and timeless, with a one-of-a-kind sound.

The initial Th- sound makes it pretty unusual among girl names. There is only one Th- name in the US Top 500 — Thea — and the next after that is Thalia itself. I’ve also heard it pronounced with a “T” sound, like Talia, linking it with this sweet multicultural name.
