What are unique names of people you actually know?

There’s so much talk about weird trendy names of upcoming generations. I feel like I know a lot of people with uncommon names in the U.S. that stand out from the rest, but still wearable for that person. I’m not sure how well I explained lol just comment names of people you actually know to prove that it’s not just weird for parents to now name their children this way

I have WILD names in my family (No surnames included) but the widest are my two cousins… Craigan Dawn Starshine Ozzy Lee Osbourne After Ozzy Osbourne of Black Sabbath, ofc. They’re 21 and 19… nobody real knows their wild middle names, so it’s a cool little personal thing.

Rain Kaybri Diesel Taivyn Acheron (ack-er-ron) Allerian (a-lare-ee-an) Acee (ay-see), I've actually known 2 Persephone Unique (yes literally the word unique) Sunday

@Joanna My partner's sister is named Leandra!

My name is Moira (Moya), daughter is Kiara I've known a Demelza and a December

I know someone who named their daughter Nerva. Never heard of that name before.

@Patience ooo I see Jasmin.. Ive always loved that name! I've always wanted to spell it Jazmyne though haha same with Kristyl instead of Crystal

My husband’s friend is called Keir, I’ve never met anyone else with that name and always thought it was quite cool. My mums name is Raina. Not that different but I’ve never met another. I went to school with a girl called Kasia (Kas-ee-ah). I use to work with a girl called Eulalia. She was Portuguese, so not sure if it’s common or not, but pretty unique in England.

strawberry sunny lucky i’m sure there’s a few more but i’ve become so used to them that i don’t register them as unique anymore lol

I knew someone with the name “anasore” … 🥲 she was such a lovely person. But damn I can’t imagine giving a baby that name

I don’t know them personally obviously but Rebel Wilson’s siblings always get me…Liberty, Annarchi and Ryot. I think some if not all there may be nicknames but still!

Just off the top of my head of friends names: Dalila (DUH-lee-Luh) Kemina Huda Tyree Jaylen (girl) My actual first name is Amanika which means trustworthy.

Well my name on its own is unique! My first name is oceana-Skye but I go by oceana or oc. My best friend is called Beatrix (Bea for short). Two of my brothers are called Zephaniah and Kailen (the rest of them are relatively normal)

@Nikki-Lee I also know a Reina and Kasia but pronounced Kay-zh-uh

My grandfather’s middle name was Urban - I always thought that was so cool

Zayonna, Ave’Maria (like the song), Avalon, Aire. They definitely seem weird but if you think about it by the time the new generation of kids grow to be adults all the “weird” names will be common.

I used to know someone called agamemnon, after the Trojan war guy

My sons name is kaysani

Harley, Dreama, Emerald(Emmy), Karina Sage (Sage) Galaxy Alora. One of my girls friends is named Chapel,so pretty. I've heard Vi' Lola Divine, Magic, Amethyst,

I used to work with a man called Iggi, it suited him. His brother was called Obi.

@a mom Nerva heard of that before either 🤣 sorry🙈

Harlem Havana Kanta (pronounced Cunt-uh) Leander Marlon Him and Her/She (twins, can't remember which name for the girl, and these were their English names) Keenan Kynan (Kai-nan) Jannika (Jar-Nick-Uh) Taelan Gale (boy) Tex Lulu Cullen Arietta Awhina-Mae (Uh-Fee-Nuh) Harlan Keegan Lennox (girl) Lennon (girl) Wilder Sonny Zane Zion Zephyr Ocean Koa Kairo Haize Madden Jai Kyrie (Kai-Ree) Sage (boy) Milo ❤️

@Anonn Lol! Dont be sorry, i dont like the name 😆

My son's are Mio (pronounced like Rio) & Sonny. I've never come across another Mio yet & he's almost 7 💓

@Parker 又 that is my name backwards (slight difference in spelling!) it was a nickname I had growing up with my friend enilorac (Caroline). Weird choice for a first name 😅

I knew a girl called Pepsi growing up. Her brother was Aston. As a teacher I’ve come across some interesting ones. Aroma, serenity, Bethlehem etc. Think my favourite was a set of twins called Christian and Dior. It actually suited them!
