HelpRe: Most unusual / eccentric current name(s) you would legitimately consider using on an actual human being today?
in reply to a message by Dianatiger
Pretty weird.
If my partner were enthused about an unusual name, I'd be more likely to use it because we'd be committing to it together.
I consider my partner to be a check on giving a too-weird name. Also asking myself whether I would care if people thought badly of it. Like I would not use Cherry. But I might use Iroh under pressure.
Your list is quite florid. If you don't mind me saying. But none of them are terrible ... except maybe Fluri. It's like Flurix without the X. Combo: Fluri Quadra Valentina. har I'm so funny. Fleurie would be cute tho.
I think the weirdest names I'd come up with to give a child, with the support of a partner, are stuff like - (I think all these meet your criteria)
girls
Ardra, Arka, Mellisant, Mera, Meridy, Merida, Dari, Ala (prn like the name Al + a, AL-uh), Rosemarine, Rosaimy, Medora, Raemi, Iole (EYE-ə-lee), Devon, Viveca, Charisa, Evanna (like Eve + Anna), Glenys, Ivry, Wyla, Riza (REE-za)
boys
Tarn, Diamond, Zeno, Merlin, Wray, Myron, Zephyr, Fenn, Rush, Rand, Valentine "Val", Tracy, Vaughn
