What are some really different/rare baby names that actually sound nice?

I don't like really traditional or common names but I also don't want one that sounds really weird. Any ideas?


thanks

What are some really different/rare baby names that actually sound nice?
It can be challenging because just when you think you've come up with something unique and different, it suddenly becomes the latest naming trend! The "collective unconscious" I guess is to blame! I agree you don't want to make something up, that just sounds weird. So here are a few to think about:





Girls:





Allegra


Bianca


Blossom


Camilla


Daphne


Delia


Geneva


Gretchen


Jewel


Kalila


Lorraine


Michael


Nola


Renata


Sylvette


Tamsin


Vida


Zelda








Boys:





Alister


Baron


Clark


Damon


Duncan


Enzo


Forrest


Grant


Irwin


Joachim (JOE -uh-keem)


Lemuel


Milo


Orlando


Pascal


Quentin


Ranger


Seamus


Tige


Ulysses


Van


Xavier


Yanni








Saint names are a good source for "real" names that are unusual and uncommon if there is no religious conflict for you.
Reply:If you don't want something annoying and fictional look into names from other languages that you don't hear in your demographic area. Japanese and African names are Very nice sounding and have really great meanings or stories behind them.


You could also think of something you love like a Rose or Sunrise and find words in other languages for those things and adapt it into a name or use it as is.

Reply:Do your kid a favor and don't give it a stupid, trendy, made-up name.


They are all universally horrible. They don't mean anything, they aren't pronounced like they are spelled, and only dolts like Paris %26amp; Nicole like them.

...I agree with Patrick D below me. Names do not have to be "youneeque" to be different.

Reply:I love the name Cooper. I'm not sure if its rare or different but i don't hear much of it. Also Maslin, I love that name as well.
Reply:My name is Marielle. Unlike Mariel, it sounds like (Mah-ree-l).


If your thinking of a unique, not exactly a celebrity baby name (which we all know are weird) you would consider Marielle!
