Most unusual name you’ve ever heard?

[ikeakia]

Just wondering what unusual ‘only met one’ names people had come across in their lives?

Hero is from Much Ado not very weird or uncommon imho. Met a few Xanthes too

Myleen Klass has a Hero and Apollo

Juniper

Cornelius
Serenity (although I see that has been mentioned by someone else already!)
Maris

Zeke which I love...

Thor

The strangest was definitely Susej, pronounced soo-jay. I've also met a Jayjay, with that spelling.

Worked with a guy whose kids were called Buddy and Sunshine.

Teacher friend had a boy in her class called Ice.

Mum's best friend's son dated (or was friends with?) a girl called Tinkerbell.

Wolf

I went to college with someone called Stalin, I kid you not

Lumen and Adelia.

@ThighThighOfthigh I wonder if they are relations of the siblings at a school I taught at.. sisters Shimmery, Shola, Shelbie and brother Shanie

Like other teachers I've seen some unusual names on my class lists, most notably Bleu (last name Bell) and Isla Mann

Conlon
Javon
Baran
Chanquin
Taine

Again
Aideen is a very USUAL Irish name

My dd was at school with Lucipher.

I know an adult who changed his name to Lusifer by deed poll, yes really!

Perseus

I know a Selah (little girl) which I had never heard of but now know to be a biblical name.

It’s pronounced Sail-Ah

I then met another Mum with a little girl with the same name but it turns out she is Sailor. As in Sail-or. 😳

Reef
Fox

Names I've only met one of

Genesis
Cordiana (my favourite)
Chaney
Nilufar(love that one too)
Zeno (coolest boy I ever met)
Ishbel (they were scottish - presume this is well known in scotland - I thought it was lovely)
Bronte
Attracta (saint's name in Ireland)

One of my own dds has an unusual Irish name and we have never met another one.

There was a girl in my school called Tangye. Not a name I've ever heard again

Dolcie
Manhattan

I also know a Huckleberry...
Also know of a boy named ‘Praise the Lord George’ - no joke!
And I knew brothers named Axel and Wheeler!

Beefy. His brother was named Ice. I kid you not.
And a little girl called Diesel.
