I know a Blue too.
Must be a devon thing.
Lots of weird ones here.

Neon though. No, i don't like that. Not sure about using the periodic table as inspiration.

my dd1s name is unique as in both are actual names that are uncommon but still actual names iyswim? but i had to be all awkard and stringed them together in a hyphonated name. i have never met another dc with her full name.
