R'aison (spelt the French way for added chic)
Tufty-Tinker-bell
Foof
L'Oreal (I have actually met one, so not TOTALLY unique. Maybe spell it phonetically to help. Lorry-ell...)
Also really like, but have never met anyone with the name Anusol. Give it a Mediterranean feel by spelling it AnuSol, then people will always be reminded of sunshine :)

You are a cruel bunch! But very funny.

What about patriotic names relating to parts of the UK?
Alba
Albion
Cymru
Taff
Manx
Guernsey
Sark
Kernow
Devon
North
Wight
Tyke
Mackem
Tresco
Bryher
Gugh
Gweal
Ganilly
Rosevear
Geordie
York
Cumbria
Rutland
Brum
Ulster (bit controversial)
Arran
Orkney
Mull
Kilda
Jura
Lindisfarne
Peckham

I think Cockney would lead to too many cruel nicknames though.
Bryher (boy) and Ganilly (girl) sound super-posh.

You could spell it Dandee-Lyonne for added yooneekness.

Caprinihahahaha · 04/04/2016 11:05

Youniquorn would also be an upmarket meatless product.

EnglishFern · 04/04/2016 10:20

I prefer Younicorne with the q spelling, so Youniquorne. It's so common with a c

Younicorne is the best name eva!!! You have to do it, OP, boy or girl!!

hazellnut56 · 04/04/2016 09:06

Oh man! I love younicorne!!
Luckily we've just named our daughter Beatrix...not many of them about apparently, although I predict a rise, thanks to Beatrix potters 150th anniversary...totally not why we named her as such we had the name picked out 3 years ago when we started trying ! Ahh well we're making good use of the merchandise popping up everywhere! Ha!

raisedbyguineapigs · 04/04/2016 07:57

That foreign names thread is great! I wish I was having another baby. I was thinking I'd struggle thinking of another name to match my little Hewrin and Zabaddy

GetifuYaBassa · 04/04/2016 06:33

What about the name Eunice.........I've only ever met 1of them, she was in her 60s and loved decoupage.
But for a modern, one-of-a-kind twist, you could pronounce it as 'You-neek.....'?
Ticks all your boxes!

Voteforpedr0 · 03/04/2016 23:03

Or if you want to go down a more home grown organic type route Marispiper ?
