An uncommon Italian pick — distinctive and rare.
coda
Coda is a boy's and girl's baby name of Italian origin, from the musical term meaning 'tail' or 'concluding passage,' referring to the final section of a musical composition that brings it to a satisfying close. As a name, Coda suggests a child who represents a beautiful conclusion — or perhaps a perfect new beginning.
Coda was #2248 twenty years ago and has since drifted to #2440, but its charm endures.
