For our first child we chose the name that is not very obvious how to spell /pronounce. But it is unusual and I still like it.
Can you please help with suggestions for our second. Not sure if this one should be the same or something more popular although we prefer unusual names. Or are all of these becoming popular and some maybe overdone (i.e. Ruby,Poppy) Thanks!
Our short list is not that short any more:

Imogen
Mabel
Olive
Freya
Melody
Kitty
Charlotte
Lilla/Lila
Isla
Ines
Maia
Annabel
Amber
Poppy
Scarlett
Hannah
Ruby
Sienna
Thea

Out of those, I like Thea and I think it is the most unusual.

Love Mabel and Olive and Thea (as a nn for Dorothea).
Tbh i am a bit bored by the others, they dont have any spark for me.

Mabel is FAB though
