Strange / Cool Names For A Kid

What is a strange name you have heard? and what is the coolest name you have heard fairly simple.

Strangest name for me was probably apple.

Best name was Sol love that name

I think the all-time strangest kid names I've heard to date were bestowed on Frank Zappa's kids, Moon Unit and Dweezil.

I mean, honestly. Dweezil? Moon Unit?

I knew a girl whose name was Antigone. That was a pretty name.

Apple is a really common one in Hong Kong. It's a sweet name.

I like Brie for a girl, but it could be seen as a touch cheesey.

Herman is not a good name for a boy. I always want to ryhme it with German.

If me and the wife have another son, I want an X word somewhere in the name.

My dad used to tease my mother that he wanted to name me "Xanthippia" so he could call me "Xany." I rather wish they had gone that route, that would have been a great name.

he did the same to my step mother, but said he wanted to call their son Naj.

a few years ago, there was a couple from Colorado ( I think ), that named thier child

Espn - yeah they were so much into sports they named the boy after the sports network...

One of the oddest names I have heard was a girl named after a city which we lived in-Orillia.But then again I named my son Austin.Quite common now though.The most unique name we picked for one of our children was Tyger.Ty for short.

coolest name i ever heard was chipferbitz

I have the strangest story of a name. This is a TRUE story.

A friend of mine is a 1st grade teacher. Every year on the first day of school she would introduce each child. She would read each childs name off her class list. One particular year she was reading the names off her list when she was dumbfounded, and didn't know what to do.
Long story short the little girls name was pronounced Sh-theeed, but it was spelled Sh-thead. Really, it is a true story.

I like the name Nicholas.

I also like the name Soda from seinfield lol

Dalrymple

A girl from high school. poor girl.
Her last name made it even worse..But I'm not going to give out someones full name.

I haven't heard any cool names, except one, I got an Indian friend named Lovedeep.

But I think a cool name for a boy is Pimp Daddy

id love to name my kids hendrix ( clear reason ) , Rizzla or Maynard

I hung out with a good friend that had the name Lightfield. I have no idea where his parents came up with a name like that.
His little sister Juliette was a bit annoying when she was 10 years old, but now she's a famous movie star.

I like simple names like Jason, Emily, Adam, Jane, etc......
I think if I had to name a boy though, I'd call him Quentin.

I've always been partial to flower names for girls. Rose, Jasmine, Iris, Lily...

My grandmother's name is Dolorosa, which means sorrowful mother. It's one of my favoriate names as well.

Boy names I like normal names, Peter, Robert, Nick, Steve, and so on.

Oddest name I always heard for a guy was Nickoli. Sounds funny to me.

xochitl is a cool name

amerika would be the odd name, i wouldn't name my kid after a county

Jimmy and elly would be ideal names from my children.
