Edgy/Unused-Rarely Used Baby Names?

Thrdxacharm · December 2014

Hi, I'm new to the bump boards. My Fiance and I have been ttc since April. And I'm thinking we finally have

still have 7days before I can test though. We both have children from a previous marriage and didn't get any say in the naming process. The name doesn't have to flow with our other children's names. This time around we are looking for names that are edgy, unused or rarely used, and that embody a sense of cool. Any Suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Care to explain. I don't think I'm cool enough to understand.

I don't get it either. I don't think a name make someone "cool" or "uncool". Or do you want people to say "Oh, that's a cool name"? I think a name like that would require deep meaning with a "cool" story behind it.

Guys, I think the op is just trying to explain her style. Some names sound cool and that's not necessarily a bad thing.

I think cool is subjective, but I get what you're saying. A little more information would be helpful from the OP.

zebrapanther1311, thank you for attempting to help clarify. I am not looking for "cool"/trendy/or popular. Instead looking for a name that most others wouldn't have used we don't want our child to be "Certain Name" #286. We want a name that others are like that is interesting that you came up with that name, it's different. Obviously not everyone likes tomatoes. And that's the same with names...not everyone will like the names I like. Not everyone will agree with me.

Edgy/cool, for me, often falls into GP territory (I don't have the guts to use, but I do like): Fable, Haven, True, Cypress, Meadow, Lake, River, Winter, Berlin, Amethyst. You know. Nouns and adjectives (kicks rock in shame).

Less out-there but seem "cool" to me are names like Ruby, Stella, Willa, Odette, Marlowe, Marnie, Mara, Mira, Noelia, Inez

Boy names are hard. Felix, Rowan, Ronan, Oscar, Noe (pronounced No-EH), Kelly, Shanon, Kellen/Kellan, Joaquin, Cruz, Luca are cool to me

(sorry for repeats and dupliucates)

Just keep in mind your hipster baby will have to put it on a resume one day. Please don't make up a name.
