One of a kind name for twins!

It's twins but don't know the genders.

I have the most amazing name. I just love it, it's so unique and I have never met anyone with my name. It's an old greek name that my mum read in a book while on holiday in Greece and was immediately drawn to. It rarely shows in baby name books and is very pretty and easy to spell. I think because of the story and uniqueness I just love it and I want names for my babies which I also love.

Any ideas of one of a kind names?

@SM4713 Did cross my mind but couldn’t figure out why the popularity of OP’s name in current school cohorts would be relevant to her choosing her kids’ names 😄😵‍💫🤷🏻‍♀️ just ignore me!

Read some Old Testament, and check out the names of old kings and bishops from the middle ages, or Homeric names.

Ki and Ka.

Mephistopheles . Never met anyone called that and it's Greek!

You do know Kyrie means 'Lord' ? Lord and Lady could be a unique pairing though if not followed by an actual name.

TheSandgroper · 03/01/2024 13:26

Lord have merceeeee.

Nope. Not Kyrie.

'One of a kind' pretty impossible.

'Unusual' more achievable.

Many of the suggestions on this thread aren't even unusual.

Fred & Rose
Ian & Myra
Adolf & Eva

You won't find any other twins with those names, I can guarantee.

LilyLemonade · 06/01/2024 17:08

I think you shouldn’t hope to recreate your own experience as you’ve no idea if your children will like the names you e chosen for them. I think you’re very lucky to like your own name so much.
