M~ Beauregard

F~ Hepzibah

Hephzibah is the correct spelling. It's a fabulous name. I suppose it's unusual, but not that unusual.

The thing is, OP, it depends on whom you know.

I would say that names such as Jayden and Something-Mae were unusual, but that's because I have never met any. My DC's schools are largely populated by children called Benedict, Alice, Sophie, Alex, Sam, Hugo, Lucy and so on, with the occasional Ptolemy and Portia thrown in for good measure (and my own DC, whose names are in the Ptolemy direction, but are not what I would regard as "unusual"). So I suppose it depends a bit on where you live, and where your children will go to school.
