Unique Baby names with their origin and meaning

[BetterBlair0306]

I am looking for unique names with either Celtic or Gaelic origin and their meaning. Names for anybody starting with any letter. Every suggestion is welcome! I'll start off the list with my own name. I have always loved my name and I love getting compliments about it. I didn't know that it was actually a unisex name until I was in junior high and shortly after that I learned that it's actually a more common name for males. Strangely enough, that fact made me love my name all the more. My name is :
Blair. No E at the end. The origin is Gaelic Scottish. It's meaning is: a plain; a pasture; a feild; or a meadow.
I'd love opinions about the name Blair. Do you like it better for a boy or a girl? Do you think the name Blair is better with an E at the end? Is it a cool name or is it lame? I'd love to know your opinions.

Also, if there is a name you've always just really liked please share . And if you know the origin
and meaning, I wanna know that too!

I like Euphemia, of Effie for short. I came across it in a novel called The Flint Anchor by Sylvia Townsend Warner. It’s from the Greek, meaning fair speech (or well spoken).

But you’re talking about unusual names, not unique names. Something that is unique is, by definition, the only instance of it.

I love Blair/e
i have to say that isn’t a unique name though, but unusual yes.
i think unique or incredibly unusual names are typically unusable though
i personally love an old Greek name or anything that may have been in Harry Potter
amycus narcissa Draco abraxus elphias for example
but I wouldn’t give them to a child

I’ve only known one Blair, a boy.

Unique means only used once so they don’t really exist with a cultural heritage.

I really like the boys name Kester which is the Scottish version of Christopher

There are two meanings for this name - one is 'follower of Christ' and the other is 'fortified town'

I'm not really into meanings but have always checked them when we've thought we might use a name, just to check they're not negative IYSWIM

What about Splurg or Zmmammaba? I think they’re probably unique. Or Toopospondialia. Toops for short.

Is that you, Tony?

Pulcheria - saint's name meaning beautiful.
Balonz - not unique but very popular in Surrey

I'd love opinions about the name Blair. Do you like it better for a boy or a girl?
I don't like it as a first name, especially not as a girl's name. It's ok as a surname.
Do you think the name Blair is better with an E at the end?
No, it's worse.
Do I think it's cool? No. Even without the New Labour association I wouldn't like it. I know a male one and a female one.

Blair, from Sc. Gael. blàr, is seen often in place names and usually translates as 'battlefield'. If you are actually speaking Gaelic, it isn't the obvious word you would use for a generic field or meadow. Blàr is usually battle or battlefield, though there are some exceptions, like in one of the words for peatbog.

Are you actually looking for a name for a child, or just wanting to discuss interesting linguistics? Either is fine, but I think there are Gaelic names I love and find interesting but wouldn't actually saddle a real child with. So my suggestions would change depending on why you are asking!

Gobnait. Eternally sexy, echt Irish origins, very cool saint.
