I know a Fox - he lives near Cambridge. Is it the same one?

My dd has a fairly uncommon name but it’s def more popular these days - it’s prompted me to look it up. She was always disappointed not to find personalised stuff as a kid!!

Jonquil

Dee Day - man born on d-day obviously
Cinnamon
Solsksjaer - girl, all siblings has usual names such as James and Mark but Dad got to choose the girls name.
Brothers Harry and Draco

I worked with a Lovely.

Cocobaby

Mine. I’m not going to out myself as mine I don’t think is even a name really! It’s Russian/polish and very similar to a girl’s name there.

Have heard of Moon, and I think some others which I’ve forgotten now. 70s childhood innit!

My DB has given his DS an unusual first name in that it’s not British and one of his middle names is the name of an animal.

I know a Merlin! And a Fox @EmmaGrundyForPM I think it's a not uncommon name nowadays.

Botticelli

My son was at school with a Tuna!

Health visitors daughter was called Flavia Elodie Moonbeam.

I went to school with a boy called Skelton. Not surprisingly everyone called him Skeleton!

Already been outed as an urban myth 🙄

I once met a little girl called Laisirfhíona,.pronounced lassereeona, with the emphasis on ee . It's an old Irish name meaning flame of wine. As someone who loves Irish names, this was unusual to me. The bearer of the name had beautiful auburn hair.

Vismanté, which sounds beautiful and suited her perfectly. I since found out that it's a Lithuanian name, but she's not of that heritage.

Girls
Avalon
Blaise

Boys
Tuskin

I love unusual and creative names so really enjoying this thread

I grew up on a street with a cemetery at the end. In the cemetery there was (and still is) a grave with the names Euphemia and Lancelot Tulip on it. I think these names are beautiful and someday I hope to find the time to write a story with these people as my lead characters 😊 ❤️

Went to school with an Hank in the 70's never heard of another.

I can't remember to be honest, I knew her in infant school so it was a long time ago!

Little boys called Sorley and Sholto. Both unusual Scottish names. Also a toddler called Norrie.

I knew a young lady called Twinkle. She was beautiful inside and out.
