@ZoyaTheDestroyer

it seems unbelievable 3 People in one year named their kid Winner, Math or Goodluck

Not at all unbelievable in many west African communities where virtue names are the norm. The former president of Nigeria was named Goodluck.

Ah I apologise for my ignorance and am rightly chastised Flowers

@toastofthetown

You've not said what type of name you like, so I looked at names that were only used three times last year, so these all should fit your brief: Aaron-Junior Goodluck Howie Iain Kaique Marmaduke Math Shabsi Thorbjorn Ugochukwu Winner
I'm not surprised those names were used once. But it seems unbelievable 3 People in one year named their kid Winner, Math or Goodluck
