Most unusual names you’ve heard at baby group!

[Nameenthusiast]

Thought this might be fun and may give some people some new ideas! What are the most unusual baby names you have heard recently? Mine are:
Moses
Claude
Nula
Herbie
Huckleberry

Theano
Bo

And a Jennifer which I think is lovely.

On another note my DD is an Emma and we once got the comment 'how unusual' from the mum of a Nevaeh at baby sensory class. Made me

Bran, although also a Welsh name, is another Game of Thrones name isn’t it!

Ds is at nursery with a ziggy and a zebedee. Such cute kids.

Jakobi

In their accent, sort of pronounced "Jair-kerby"

Ziggy and Kandy

Maccabee is one i observed recently!

Ha my children have unusual names and I am now skilled and managing peoples responses when I tell them (mostly ladies over 60).

No child or teenager has ever batted an eye lid at them and always manage to prounounce them correctly from being told only once.

I think that the days when the same 10 names were used each era has passed.

Humphrey. I wanted to laugh. I couldn’t believe anyone would call their lovely little baby such an old mans name.

Moss - I know a Mossy or two (in their 30s).
Would it be a nickname for Thomas?

I forgot a few.
Woody, Gwyneth, Buster, Rufus and Paisley

Fanta is a common West African name.

Quincy

I met a Brian, I thought that was quite an unusual choice for a modern child.

Some of the names mentioned here are common in parts of London.

My children went to school with siblings Honey-Bee and Dash. Their parents were a bit needy.

Ladies and gentleman, I give you.....Pebble. A girl. Named because her mother had once been madly in love with a man named Stone. He is not her father.

A little boy called Sonshine (yes spelled like that)
And a sibset called Atticus and Scout

Really adorable names for really adorable kids.

Plus, unlike my children they won’t be the seven hundredth Oscar or Martha in their class. 😂

I work in a school, so lots of these don't seem unusual to me any way we have Goldie, Kitten, Gilbert, Princess, Minnie & Calvin in nursery....but Rodger? Now that's unusual!

@pandoraphile I taught a pre teeb teen pebbles a few years ago, thought it was pretty cute

Not baby group but i have met

Nirvana
JayZee
Meadow
Decoda
Moo
Breeze

I love Meadow! Think it sounds lovely. Also love Rufus. Dp said no to that.

I did have a contribution but it’s totally escaped me. Sleep deprivation.

See I know several Meadows of various ages and Rufus is a top 20 baby name where I am.

I do know a Saturn who is very cool.

Also Atticus is not that unusual here. Only know one other scout. But what a cool name.

Judge

Bran means Raven in Welsh. In Welsh legend Bran the Blessed was the son of the god Llyr. I know a baby Bran.

Humphrey. I wanted to laugh. I couldn’t believe anyone would call their lovely little baby such an old mans name.

But all the old Humphreys were once cute little babies!

Exactly. In the 1970’s and 80’s there must have been loads of cute little babies called Paul, Gary or Dave!!! 😁

@starshollow1 would you count winter as unusual? I have a thread asking for opinions on it running atm. Are you not keen/ would think it was a weird name?
