AIBU- Someone has used my unusual baby name

[MmmmDonuts]

I wanted my baby to have a one of a kind unique name.
I made up a name that I love. It's definetly never been used before.
(I realise this sounds dodgy already)

Anyway, my baby is 7 months old and someone in my town has just given birth and used the name.
I actually feel really gutted about it.

I realise I am about to be flamed in the comments.
BUt how can I feel less gutted about this? Meh

Is it........Rumplestiltskin😆

Farrah! I was hoping for Fanjo at least...

Even I've met a farrah (must be about 20 now)

Efluvia is a lovely name for a girl ...

Okay so now we know the name. YABU!

lol Jagwa.. hope not!

Didn't expect Farrah

Yeah, you have to have been living under a rock to realise Farrah had "definitely" never been used before. A little unusual in today's world of Sophies and Emilys and Lily-Mays, but not totally out there.

What? It's Farrah?
This is the most disappointing MN reveal ever.

This is a wind up and the thread is pointless. If not, OP would declare the name.

I actually quite like L-a(ray) prounched LLll-ray

Shit, Farrah - really? Boring! Never watched ancient Charlie's Angles, OP?

Where I work I get to see lots of children's names, and nothing in the way of youniqness surprises me anymore. Although when I see twins with virtually identical names such as Oliver and Olivia (not actual examples, but you get the jist) I do raise my eyebrows.

I teach one, she's 11.

You thought you'd made up Farrah?? really?? You had never heard farrah before? I know 3 girls under 4 called farrah. I know of Farrah fawcett, Mo Farrah, and the girl from teen moms a few seasons back called Farrah.

Do you not have TV? Or internet? Or speak to people?

Just call her Tap- job done :)

Well that was disappointing. Kafata is amazing though

I named my little one a very unusual name - 50 babies only a year are made it max, so while not made up utterly unique, it's unusual enough!

But it pissed me off that a few years later, a celebrity used the same.

But luckily, it hasn't taken off and it's not become popular 😂

Seriously, you just have to suck it up and hope they are not going to the same school.

Or Farrah backwards....

Harraf- then she will be totally unique

Also, I live in Boringsville. If it's reached here, it's not unusual.

There were 13,000 fara's in 2016, 609 farah's, and 1000 farrah's.
According to baby centre.
Lovely name, but rather farfetched to get upset if anyone else names their child after a name in every baby list.

Do you not watch teen mom op?

But it's definetly a new word. Not a crazy spelling of an existing name.
Not exotic or what some may refer to as 'chavvy'. Could pass for a surname I guess but cute.

Hmm could pass for a surname... Can anyone think of someone with the surname Farrah? 🤔

Farrah reminds me of peas and I have no idea why!

It always has, can anyone help shed any light?

I'm just disappointed no-one on that other thread suggested Fawcett-Majors as baby Farrah's middle name.

I didn't realise she'd died (Farrah Fawcett that is)
