Any recent unusual girls' names?

We're done. But now I'm just curious about girls' names instead. Come across any uncommon or unusual but not weird names recently? There was a baby Hilla in hospital (mother was Finnish, I think?) I had to ask twice, but it has grown on me.

I know a 7 year old Indigo

@VanGoghsLeftEar I was going to call my daughter Soraya but I prefer the pronunciation So-ray-ah as the other reminds me of psoriasis! So it's her middle name instead and I called her 'Soraya Sunshine' Smile

Hesper is like a cross between Hester and Vesper. I like Hester.

@Cosmoa

Like... Paella? BlushHmm

Cosmoa · 02/06/2018 14:27

@Kocerhan3 no... Not like Paella. You don't pronounce the L's when said correctly. It's pronounced pah/EH/yah not Pae-ella like most British people say.

When my dd was in special care there was a baby girl there called Prunella... wouldn’t be my choice but they nicknamed her Pru which was actually really sweet. When she had apnoeic episodes they said she was having a Pru Do, still think of her now, she was an adorable little thing.
