Hi everyone,
Can anyone suggest any boys names that are unusual but not weird? We simply cannot agree on a name but we know we don't want a traditional name (nothing wrong with them just not for us!) xx

florascotia thank you knew the Cyan fact but other two are interesting, a female character that kills her kids is prob not an ideal childs name 👍🏼

Tyro means 'beginner' or 'recruit' originally Latin but also in English. In Greek mythology, however, Tyro is a female character who kills her children.

Cyan (sigh-ann) is the technical term for a particular shade of bright blue. It is widely used by printers and others working with coloured inks, TV screens and computer monitors en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shades_of_cyan

Tidus (Tee-dus) is a character in a fantasy fighting game.

We've got a Zephyr and a Montgomery and my brother - in - law has 3 sons - Orion, Cyrus and Ignatius.
You could also try to decide on a theme - space, Greek names, water etc.
