  We’re having a girl, so we’re debating Elliot so we can nickname her Ellie 😊

  @cpk3535 like Elliot from Scrubs!  😁
  
  @buggiemarie99 we are considering an unusual name if our baby is a boy.  The name is Nahuel (pronounced nah-well).  My husband is from Argentina and the name is an indigenous name from the Mapuche people of Argentina and Chile.  I just don’t know if people would butcher it.  FWIW I don’t think Lillith or Brennan are strange. They’re both easy to spell and pronounce.  I would say they’re more uncommon than strange.

  We are leaning towards Felix, but we are not 100% set on it.

  My last name is extremely rare,  my first name is rare for my age bracket and uses an alternate spelling.  I plan on giving my kid a traditional name.   
  
  I have zero anonymity.  If you Google my name I'm the only one in the world. I really hate it.

  @KTZ17 Yes! We are Scrubs fans ❤️ I really like Nahuel, but yes, I’m almost positive some people will add the “h” sound on their first attempt at pronunciation. But it’s a beautiful name and really unique, so I would say go for it anyway. Maybe just tell teachers how to say it if you’re worried 👍😊. My name’s not unusual or hard to read and people still get it wrong constantly! @holly321 I think Felix is really cool! Not too common either.

  @bookworm492 if you google my name I am also the only one in the world. I gave DS a slightly unique name for our area but it fits him so well.

  @buggiemarie99 we already have a name thread titled “the name thread”...we try to refrain from starting new ones to help not clutter our boards and to keep things organized! :-)
