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

I know a young Farrah and a Bruno, plus a late 30's Jolene ... wonder if they are the same ones?

I only know of 1 Loki and 1 girl called Felix.

I quite like the attribute names, just not sure I'd choose them for my DC. Used to know a lovely Patience, think she would be in her 60s now.

Trinity, I'm not sure how old Jolene is - I only met her once a few years ago and although the name stuck in my head because of much singing in my team when she was due for a meeting with a colleague I can't really remember the face. Did your Jolene live in/near Edinburgh? This one appears to have left - have just searched the work directory and she's not there any more.

Meroe - should have an accent over the "e" - it is pronounced Merroway.

She told me she was named after a city in Sudan.

Cheddar - Tamise might be after the French for Thames as in River. Still unusual though!

I've remembered another one - Temisan, pronounced Tem-eeesa.
