[Opinions] Re: Australian names...
Kirrily and Peta are two other girls' names which seem to have been much more used in Australia than elsewhere. Melba seems to have originated with the Australian opera singer Nellie Melba, which makes it something like Narelle in origin, but I don't know if Melba was actually ever regularly used as a girl's name in Australia like it was in the USA.

Yes, Melba has definitely gone through popular phases here. nt  ·  Chrisell  ·  9/10/2008, 4:04 AM
