Have been inspired by this thread.

So which names have you only ever heard once?

Can I start of by saying I only know one of the following, all children:

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

we have a Massimo in our beavers group
and know a La Rhys, a Redwa, a leighton and an Erisa

we are surround by a sea of Lewis/Louis so at least the unusual names make a nice change.

Merlin
Shusharna, must be at least fifty or older.
Satasha, not a typo.

One of my customer's DC is called Lincoln - never come across that one before.

My OHs name. He's done his research - there are NO other men on Facebook with his name that he has been able to fine. He's found some women though, but they're also all from the USA.

One of the baristas in my local Starbucks is called Wednesday.

VivaLeBeaver · 11/07/2014 13:29

I'm not sure the parents of Kay1 would have got the name through the registrar though. I'm sure there's a rule about only having letters in names.

I know a KT.
