RP2211 please also remember that to just play it safe and dump a bog standard, boring, plain, heard everywhere a million times, several kids in same class all called that same name - on your kid can also be seen as cruel for that child. Dare to be a LITTLE different! Let you child have it’s own name, rarely heard that helps them grow as special, unique individuals and contrary to what you say rather than result in bullying most kids know aspire to and wish their parents also had a bit more imagination.

Exactly well said 👏

Please remember that your child has to go to school and bullying WILL happen if the name is too unusual. Your child will have to get a job when they're an adult too. Your child lives with that name for the rest of their lives not you.

Actually please remember that everyone wants and deserves a name that easily identifies them. Being one of 3 Steves or one of 4 Harrys is no fun. Having a great memorable name is a wonderful gift!

P.s. the only name that I've ever heard teased is Willy/William and still loads the f parents choose it.
