I know my kids have unusual names but don't go for the celeb names as the kids in my dd's class have some classics and I always think of who they are named after and forget this little unique person

babyonboard · 26/09/2005 16:00

Zoyah
Eden
Jasmine
are all fairly unusual but not too much imo

Enid · 26/09/2005 16:04

Beatrice

lilibet · 26/09/2005 16:16

My dd is Elizabeth Grace, but at the moment I like Miriam, Verity and Jocasta.

None of which have been mentioned!

Rachey1969 · 28/09/2005 18:33

Another couple... they are Welsh/Celtic origin, popular round here but less so in England I imagine:

Lowri (pronounced Lowery)
Nia (Nee-a)
Efa (bit like Ava - f = hard f)
Caitlin
Catrin
Rhiannon
Ffion (pronounced Fion - ff=soft f)
Angharad (Anharad - silent g)
Cerys (Kerris)
Carys (Karris)
