Most random kids name you have encountered in real life….

[Mittemucci]

Today I met a child called Bismarck

i felt like it was one of the names you read about but wonder if anyone is actually called that….

what’s the most unusual name you have ever come across in daily life?

How recently was this? I worked with a Topaz Magenta about 20 - 25 years ago. (NE England)

I've known an Immaculata - as you say RC.

I quite liked it.

I can think of Rue and possibly Dil(l) - can't think or another 3 letter herb.

Takes me right back to "Jesus in the cabbage van".

😂

Bay?

My mum told me today that her friend's grandchildren are called Persephone and Poseiden.....

One of our neighbours is called Ignatius. Known as Iggy. He's very friendly 😊

Barcadi and a Scarlett O’Hara. We know an Edison.

Ive worked in several schools and I know there’s more but never remember.

One of my son's classmates is called Khaleesi. (Game of Thrones)

Born late 90s at a rough guess. But was north eastern, oddly enough!

A colleague is called Karenza - also a lovely Cornish name.

Shades of To Kill A Mockingbird here.

(now with for a "Boo")

I regularly get emails from someone called Marvellous (I am in education and it is about student awards, is it the same guy)?

<SNORT>

😂

Can't be the same one, then. She must have been about 30-35 when I worked with her. Nice woman. No children.

Strange to think that there may be two - but in the same region I suppose they may be related.

I knew a woman once called Cinnamon Lane. She was lovely!

We know a teenage Cloudy.

Not children any more, but I have met a Pusskin and a Daffodil (who would be about 40 by now).

That's a beautiful name.

I see your Beau and raise you Beaux who is a girl. I also met a baby Ace many years ago which I was a bit boggled by.

I really like Beau, Beaux and Ace. I think they’re cool names and really not that ‘out there’.

I knew twins named Lynn and Lachlan in the 80s.

And I know a Linda who named her son Linden.

Where is the imagination? Millions of lovely names out there to be used!

A baby Spike

Having gone back and read the thread, there are definitely examples of these names already so more common than I thought.

Yes. Beau has been mentioned lots but it's a not uncommon name used mainly for boys.

Beaux is ridiculous, especially if you have any French knowledge. Though I think Beau for a girl is similarly wrong, and would presume no French knowledge.
