What's the most unusual name you would actually use for a boy?

Question

What is the most unusual boy name you would actually consider using for your own baby boy? I need an unusual name for my story, but a name that other moms would use in real life.

Thanks in advance. x

Well my unusual names that I like are generally all on my guilty pleasures list.

The one that I'd like to use most:

-- August

:) I'd call him Gus for short.

Also these:

-- Reid

-- Cairo (KY-ro)

-- Flynn

:)

Source(s): N.

Answer 2

Well, this is the list of names that I'd consider if I was expecting a boy now, they're all quite unusual:

Alastair Samuel

Everett Charles

Grayson Oliver

Thaddeus Arthur

Callaghan Lucas

William Roscoe

Nicholas Evan

Leo Raphael

Elias Anthony

Tristan Reid

Jude Vincent

Geoffrey Elliott

My main contenders would be Alastair, Grayson & Callaghan.

Hope this helps!

Answer 3

Wow, I have 2 unusual names I'd actually consider using: Penn and August, but since my dear friend Nikki already said she'd use August, I'll go with Penn.

Yes, I know a pen is an object, but Penn just sounds so cute to me. Despite it's cuteness, I think it ages quite nicely :)

Answer 4

London

Answer 5

Cassius (cass-ee-us, not cash-us) - I think Cass is such a nice nickname

Roscoe

Finn - not sure how unusual this is though

Rafe - the traditional pronunciation of Ralph but it makes more sense spelt this way!

River - this is perhaps a little more common too

Answer 6

Angel & Bartholomew. They're probably the most unusual ones that I would actually use, although most likely as middle names :).

Answer 7

I'm partial to:

Greyson

Tucker (I actually really like that one)

Indigo

August

Perhaps Fisher.

Answer 8

Probably Dominic or maybe Jamison. Neither are very unusual.
