My DS middle name is Harlan... its an old english name, we thought it pretty unusual.
what bout Mekhi?
(pro Mek-Hi)
Thanks everyone for your suggestions! Right now I am so frustrated I hope I have a girl, LOL, cause we have that name sorted out.
OOOh Candice is it Mehkelti?? PMSL!!
Just kiddin ;)
I do love Mehkelti as a girl's name! And I also still really love Maruschke, even though it isn't popular or common. Hmm I wonder if Mischke would work as a girl's name?
Still like Malachi for a boy, but it is not 100% right...
I just realised these are all M names, haha!
M names are great!!! (totally unbiased opinion of course! ;))
I remember when pregnant with DS I had Aricyn for a boy - Anakie Grace for a girl
when pregnant with DD - Mehkelti for a girl - Macarien for a boy..
I seem to get one letter in my head for both sexes!!!
I like Mekhi.
Tahi ( ta-he), it means 1 or first in maori, fitting for a first born son
brin
taj
unaru (a-na ru) andrew in maori
wiramu ( wi-ra-mu) william in maori
thats about all i have hoping the next one is a girl so i dont have to find another boys name
Hi all,
Our daughters name is Aliyah pronounced A-leah.Her middle name is Christine like the car.It sounds pretty together.We got it from the US R&B singer who died in a plane crash some years back although she spelt hers with a double A.
Its Arabic and it means highly exalted
I like Silas and Zane as Boys names
I LOVE LOVE LOVE this name!!!!!!!!:
Anakie Grace for a girl
Unfortunately, my husband is a star wars tragic, and this is too close to Annakin...:
HAHAHA - Yeah everyone asks if I got the name from there - even though I've never seen any of the movies :rolleyes:
Its actually the name of a small town near Geelong :D
I always LOVED the name Avalon and I was so sure I would have an Avalon Rose for my daughter. But then everyone who I said it to said it reminded them of the airport :rolleyes:. And DH said it reminds him of the Toyota. I still love it though!
:
I love maori names.
I know a Tahi & Unaru. But my friend spells it Anaru.
Another maori one is Typihi
Nunka (Aboriginal)
I love the maori name Atahua, but its a girl name.
Rua (Lake - maori)
Tane (maori god of the forest)
Hari (a colour)
Sounds lovely! But reminds me of the Smashing Pumpkins, LOL.:
Mateauz is a good one ;)
hmmm
:dunno: Aspen
Maxamus
Mikeal
Memphis is another good one ;)
Mel - i have a thing for M names aswell :)
Well ... it does take an extra special kind of person to carry the "M" off successfully ;):
grrr double post
jerome
Well, i have decided to join this thread because you guys have some amazing names!! And we need all the help we can get haha!!
I have just fallen in love with Dusk for a girl and Finlay for a boy, i don't think DF will be as keen though. He's more into traditional "strong" names. We have Jackson lined up for a boy and Sianna/Sienna for girl, although neither of them are set in stone yet because we now we'll change our minds a 100 times by the time bub gets here!
Rua is also the number 'two' so could be well suited to a 2nd child. btw-(Tahi means the number one).:
Hari as far as I know is not a colour - its meaning can be used as 'happy' though 'Koa' would be more appropriate. The use of Hari as happy would be in the context of 'happy birthday or happy anniversary'. Hari is a verb used in the meaning of taking/carrying something.
There is no 'y' in the maori alphabet, so the word/name Typihi would be spelt Taipihi. Which the meaning of would probably translate as 'Seagrass'.
I`m not saying you cant say, spell or pronounce a name anyway you want, but just want to help bring more understanding if those mentioned above were to be considered as Maori names.
BTW - Anaru is a transliteration of the name Andrew :)
Hmmm how about for girls
Amari
Sway
Shaye
Shay-Lisa
Harmony
Melody
And for the boys
Titan
Traveon or I have also seen it spelt Treaveon
:
The Maori names here I listed are just ones I've heard. It was a baby name website that had those meanings. Thanks for straightening it out :)
My SIL's uncle was Taipihi, but I've got no idea how it was spelt. Just that it was shortened to Pihi for my neices middle name.
I also know an Atu & I think its Ruki, but not sure.
I have been thinking about names all weekend, and they always come when I don't have any paper!
Cavanagh
Cassius
Scorpio
Ruari (or Rory. I say it because I knew a Dante and a Rory who were great little mates)
I was deadset on Kiah or Zekiah for a boy (but if you look up Kiah it is traditionally an african girls name :doh:).
My friends son is named Raiden.
My brother was going to be named Uri.
Arkaeha is a nice girls name.
Pheonix is a good boys name.
Boys names are hard, thats what we are struggling with.
I think that we will have Amali for a girl, but I would like an unusual middle name to go.
Below are some unusual names of kids I know:
Cedella
Miliani
Lilani
Beppina
Zedekiah
Tobiah
Chelestina
Rocket
MoMo.
I havnt read all posts so may have repeats.

Zeke
Izrael
Baxter

Pierce
Rafferty
Tucker
Tully

Grady
Zade
Zaiden
Zeus
Mak

Hi,
Really interesting thread and names. DS is nearly five and we ended up calling him Benicio. We couldn't pick a boys name and I became completely enamoured with the actor Benicio Del Toro while pregnant. In the end it was the only name we both agreed on.
Some people find it a little difficult to pronounce at first but it sure does stand out and if he doesn't like such a fancy name as he gets older, he can always use Ben. At the moment though he's not budging from Benicio and tells everyone that Ben is not his name.
what about the silent D...:p
I like Django for a boy
Djimon or
Djaron
What about Darion (darry-on)? It is greek for gift.
I've liked that name since I heard it in a movie AGES ago ;)
Phew!!! It's quite uncommon, and we both like it. Now for a middle name that suits my stupid surname LOL.
Thanks Mel :)
i'm pretty creative with names... i can make one up on the spot, usually. just tell me what you prefer in terms of sounds. personally, i like long vowel sounds better than short, and i like v in the name. :)
here are some that you *might* like, lol
Lindiv
Shadyn (australian name)
Hethi
Brantin (derivitive of "brand" meaning sword or beacon)
Dyani ("deer" in native american, not sure what tribe)
Trayf
Zephyr (zephyrus was the greek god of the west wind)
....
Mel - what movie was that??? DH found this name in a fantasy novel LOL.
For a girls name..Fauve...means colourful
can't remember offhand - the mask i think.... lemme get back to you... could have been darian..
eta - nope that was dorian
must have been another movie..
I stumbled across the name Amelithe yesterday...now I can't get it out of my head.
