Unique Baby Boy Names

[NotUrsula]

Shamus ... Declan ... Keiran ... Maverick ... Quinton

Yeah, you could say those are unique: 3 are mis-spelled, and one came from a 1950's TV show (or from the movie Top Gun, which is more likely if he is a child.) The only real name in the bunch is Declan.

FTR, the proper spellings are Seamus, Ciaran, and Quentin. (The first two are Irish, the third is Latin.)

Please think twice before deliberately choosing an unconventional way to spell a name. Surveys have actually shown that having a "creatively spelled" name can disadvantage a person over time: http://www.babynamesworld.com/naming_tips/eb12.htm

I did not read through all the posts, so if this was already mentioned, sorry...my DS is Brett!

Wow I'm surprised I haven't seen my DS1 name on the list yet.

Corbin

We have not met anyone yet with his name but we saw his name after we named him in the personal creations catalog.

My son is Linden. Not odd, just not common.

 

[KristinU]

I haven't seen my DS's name yet - Theo
It is one of those names that seems to be well known, yet not terribly common. For us it is a family name on my DH's side, actually short for Theophil, which I'm sure came from Theophilus.

This is fun Random Name Generator

You pick the types of names you want, and how many, and it selects random combos for you.

Our sons are Logan (not so unique here anymore), Ravi, and Solomon (Sol for short)
I have a nephew named Miles which I don't hear too often and another named Reese which I do hear often

We had a baby boy last year and named him Chad. I get positive comments on it all the time. I wanted something that was "mainstream" but not popular. We have yet to meet a Chad in playgroups, swimming or daycare.

 

[TinkTatoo]

We have a Pirate Aidan, too!......

We have the Irish version of Aidan which is Aodhan (pronounced A-Don)

We thought we had picked a not-so-common name for DS2:

Caden

But with a few weeks after he was born, met 5 Caden's (although one was with a K)! But to top it off, we named him "Caden Jhames". When we got home from the hospital there was an email from a couple from our Lamaze class. They had been in the same hospital as us and had their baby two days prior (on the day I was originally scheduled to be induced). Their birth announcement was for their baby boy named "Caden James". We had never discussed names in class and we didn't pick DS's name until after he was born. What are the chances of that?
