Mongolian female names are primarily Mongolic in origin, often built from two meaningful elements. Several morphemes are strongly associated with girls: -tsetseg (flower), -tuya (radiance), -chimeg (ornament), and -maa (a feminine/diminutive ending). While many Mongolian given names are unisex, these endings mark common feminine forms. Themes for girls frequently reference nature, beauty, and auspicious qualities. Tibetan and Sanskrit elements entered through Buddhism, but the structure remains Mongolian.

Modern usage follows the patronymic-plus-given-name system. Short forms and transparent meanings are popular, alongside occasional revivals of historical women’s names. Examples include Batzorigtsetseg, Batzorigtuya, Bolor, Borte, Byambasuren, Erhanchimeg, Ganaa, Khatun, and Mandukhai.
