So im having my first little one and I can not find a name that fits what im looking for. First girl or boy the name should start with the letter A. Second i'm looking for very unique names Ive been up and down google and havent seen one. I dont mine if its 2 letters or 10 letters, if its a place/thing etc. (with great meaning). I also need girl middle names (dont have to start with an A. I was looking for an odd name that means God is good. And just to throw some things out there I love these things the ocean (I was literally going to do a middle name as Ocean), black history, and movies..

Found this the other day - it's for Scotland, but I assume there's a similar one for elsewhere in the country. All given forenames, number of times used. You can find them in rank order if you prefer, but this link is for alphabetical.

Anjelica is an autocorrect for what I actually wrote - Angelika (Ann-GAY-lick-ah), it is a German name and I think that pronunciation is prettier than the Rugrats version.

I think my phone auto corrected because my friend's daughter is Anjelica and I've written that way more than the name of my old German exchange partner!

Also, Aune is a pretty name (Ow-nah, the first syllable rhymes with how, not low)

How about Afolf? That's quite rare. I believe it has historic associations and has been associated with powerful men in the past! It would certainly get you the attention you're hoping for! 😉

Well Adolf, obviously. My fat fingers are not functional clearly

Look up Welsh baby names e.g. Anwen/Aneurin/Aneira/Alwen/Alwenna/Alun/Aeron/Afan/Anarawd/Alaw (means melody. Love this name!) /Arawn...theres bajillions, and theres definitely a similarity between a lot of Welsh names and Indian names in sound and 'vibe' for want of a better word. Some beautiful meanings too. But do check pronunciation!
