Coolest name you've heard lately?

So, what's the coolest name you've heard lately? Doesn't have to be one you'd use, or a favourite, necessarily, just something unique and interesting (in a good way!)

I heard Ransom the other day, for a boy, and I really thought it was a great name. As a Christian, (and this boy's parents are too) it reminds me of how Jesus ransomed us from sin - paid the price for us - but it's also just a really neat name, I think.

I heard Phoenix for a little still girl the other day - a friend's niece - and although I'm not much of a fan of the name normally, it seems to fit so perfectly for the situation. Phoenix rising from death/flames, etc...

Rocket is a little boy at creche. I love it, but would never use it myself.

I know of ppl who wanna call their (future) little girl Story - dad's a writer.

I like Story, Jenna Elfman named her son Story. It's a pretty word easily moves into the name genre.

I saw a boy names Landon the other day :) I really like that... no more babies for me though!

... wasn't recently but a couple of years ago i met a 2year old beautiful little girl named OCEAN ... yes she had blue eyes like the Ocean :D

(she was the first child to Jehovah parents, don't know why i mention that maybe cause you mentioned religion in your thread)

I was just reading a newspaper article the other day about a little girl named Oceane, who was one of the first babies to under go heart surgery in utero. The surgery was successful, and she just turned one. :)

Chip
Arrow

Ghana
Aspen

I have a friend who named her little girl Hosannah - I think its gorgeous!

Ransom is cool too!

Isn't Hosannah a very old biblical name? It is very pretty though!

A few names of children I have cared for at work recently:

Loic (I think Luke in French?) but I love it!
Axl
Cruiz
Angel
Micah

Destiny
Leilani
Avery

I heard of Justice today. :)

I heard a little girl called Oceana. Pretty :)
I know a Justis too.
Levi Pheonix is a friends DS's name. I think its so cool!

There's a little girl at playgroup named Oasis. I thought it was odd at first but it actually really suits her.

... i met a little boy named Bee ... and a woman named Riane (pronounced Ryan as her parents thought they were having a boy) !!

A boy signed up for touch rugby (I'm the administrator) he's about 20 and his name is: Cody Storm

Storm is his surname... Great combo.

I met an Odessa the other week...i think its really nice..suited her!

I like Ransom...thats cool

I have a friend whos little boys middle name is Chill..if he'd been a girl they were going to call her Chilli, I think thats so cool!

I went to school with a guy called Ransom!

I know twins called Rock and Rose.
I called my DS Lennox and it means "with many elm trees", though the meaning is a bit strange!

I met a little girl on Saturday called Sabre. Not a name I would have even looked at but it was so perfect for her.

think I have posted this name in a thread before, anyhoo, our old neighbour's son's name was Style.

Hehe I was going to say I assisted a delivery of a bubba girl whom was called Chilli which I loved. Never heard of it for a baby/human before but thought it was so lovely so was surprised it was already mentioned by C~Q.

I am glad I read this thread as we plan on calling our son (if we ever get pregnant or even have a son) Desmond and couldn't agree/think of a middle name to go with it. But I found it thanks to Deedles. I love the combo Desmond Lennox with our surname. DH wants John (family name) ewww so common.

Still need a lovely but unusual middle name for a girl.

Oh and I love Hosannah. And it could be shortened to Anna which I also love.

Its settled DH named DD so I am naming the next and he will just have to get over it :lol:

Mildez - have you posted a thread about your need of an unusual girls middle name? How about Sancia? :)

It hasn't grown on me as a girls name yet but i met a girl yesterday called Blade i think its a cool name but for a boy.

Fox - I LOVE it!!

A librarian friend has a daughter called Reade. I love it, kinda olde worlde unique.

Oh, 2 kids that used to live here
Chilli & Dusk I love those 2 names!
