Sedah?

[GretaGip]

Looking for something unique.

Don't want DD or DS to be one of 4 in the class.

TIA

Hades backwards?

[ladybird69]

I've heard of Heaven backwards but not Hades! personally I wouldn't use it.

[MrsLeighHalfpenny]

Did you make it up? It sounds vaguely Hebrew/Jewish, but I've never heard of it before.

[SnuffleGruntSnorter]

Like cedar?

[TiddlyFitShaced]

The only way to get unique is to completely make up a name.

But please don't.

It's not that hard to be a little different without making shit up. I have four children, all if them have names that are known by all as names, are easy to spell, but they are the only ones with their names in the whole school.

[torthecatlady]

Is that pronounced Cedar (as in the wood)? I agree, that it looks like a hebrew name. I'm not fussed on anything ending "eh" or "ah" unless of course it is originally spelt that way. I like traditional names so personally, not for me. But that doesn't mean that someone else won't like it!

[CaptainWarbeck]

Never heard of it, not a big fan.

Setareh is similar though?

[MaelstromOfLunacy]

I know a Seda, pronounced said - a. I quite like it

[Natalie12288]

I also know a Seda! Pronounced Said-ah! I wouldn't use it, but it's okay :)

[GretaGip]

Oh. I thought I'd found a hell of a good, unique, unisex name.

[BettyBi0]

Sounds like a car but spelt weird

[IoraRua]

Hades backwards.
It'd be alright apart from that...

[ScandiManny]

Sounds like Fred Elliot saying Sadie to me, sorry

[midsomermurderess]

It looks like it might be a Turkish name to me, is it or something you've come up with yourselves?

[Sofiria]

I immediately saw Hades backwards.

Selah for a girl, maybe? It's Biblical, but unusual.

[PaulAnkaTheDog]

Yup. Hades for me.

[nooka]

I suspect that the best way to avoid being one of four in your class is to choose an out of trend name, which at the moment probably means looking to names popular in the 70s or 80s.

We used to know a family that made up all their children's names in a quest to be different, only to discover that they weren't unusual in that and two of their three children shared their names with at least one other child in their respective classes.

Plus having a name that's unrecognizable as a name pretty much guarantees that it will always be misspelled and mispronounced, and often be commented on unfavourably. Which is a bit rubbish really.

[ChristineDePisan]

I saw Hades backwards, too - sorry OP, back to the drawing board...


What is it that you are after? Just something that no one else will have, or are there other criteria?

[Seriouslyffs]

Cedar is nice!

[StitchesInTime]

Hades here as well.

[Sophronia]

I prefer Selah.

[ObsidianBlackbirdMcNight]

Did you make it up?
