Have been inspired by this thread.

So which names have you only ever heard once?

Wolfgang but I do know a wolf too.
Paris
Waldon
Sapphire
Emerald
Troy
Leonie

My male friend is onome - lovely name. His mum is from Trinidad. His brothers have fab names too - onajite and ese

ACM Thian prob inspired by Theon , GOT?

As in only ever met one of them:

Gilbertine
Cordelia
Blaise
Charity
Tiger
Paris
Piers
Orlando
Regina
Pandora
Dante

Ursula
Lalage
Dante
St John

I've only met one of each.

Rubina, Kerensa, Keturah, Kaysia - 1& 3 were elderly ladies, 2&4 in their 30's.

Im suprised none of my names have come up on here, although one of my middle names (which I am known by) is almost here, quite close, its the least unusual of them.

Reading this has made me realise how bonkers my parents actually were, funnily enough Ive given my children classic names and DD says she cant believe I gave her such a boring name, but you try living with a name people always say pardon or can you say that again or wow, unusual name. Along with how do you spell that

Although, I do quite like them, now.

Ocean-Leigh

Dante
Hunter

I encountered a little Staniel the other day

DS is at school with a Danny-Boy and a Gin (Gin is Chinese but her name makes me smile every time I see it on the peg )

Denby

There was a midwife that came into my work 1 day, she'd just came off nigh shift and delivered a baby girl who got named.....….........klamydia!! Gods honest truth, and when they asked the mum if she was sure cos it sounded like you know what she said it's fine I'm spelling g it with a k instead of ch!!

Taliesin, Tadgh

Nigel

oh yes i knew a Taliesin.... such a cool name

Tarlac

There was a midwife that came into my work 1 day, she'd just came off nigh shift and delivered a baby girl who got named.....….........klamydia
bullshit

It's not bullshit! It was a 16yr old that had given birth to her and just thought it sounded pretty! Between midwives and family they supposedly tried to talk her outta it to no avail! But tbh i would think it was bullshit if I hadn't heard it 1st hand

My name has been mentioned three!! times on this thread!

I forgot one that I heard in passing (N London friend told me about a girl in her DD's class): Q'munity

Tequila

ant believe this thread is still going and I love some of the new additions, especially Happy

I now have 2 more, Atlantis and Dempsey.

I've only met one of the following;

Daewoo
Quinn
Amadeus
Curtese

DH mentioned a Pagan - the parents had merged Megan and Paige to come up with it

Tippy. Took me aback when I heard it because I had to say 'sorry I didn't catch that' and felt really bad.
Not a name I'd choose but when I told my husband about it he thought it was really nice so it's obviously not as out there as I'd assumed.

burgatroyd I really like Griselda for some reason

I've met a Tykeela, pronounced like tequila.

I've never met anyone else with my DD's name, Celyn :)
