I've become entranced into the vast amount of surnames that will work for a girl and still sound feminine with the name as a whole or with a nickname. Either way, surname names for girls are becoming very popular (give or take a few hundred Harper's, Mackenzie's, etc.) I've compiled a list of surnames for girls that I've been fond of and some that I can't even imagine on a little girl eventually a woman!
Feel free to comment your favorites or new ones that you love or have seen used that sound out of the ordinary!

Thoughts?
