I have been on a kick lately about off beat names. Two that I thought of were Fiddle and West. Meh just two ideas I have had in my head. Does anyone else have a name that they love but would never give a person? Haha.

I love the name Shade, but I would never name a child that. Maybe a cute little dog. lol

Fiddle? Gosh that's awful! Reminds me of boys' thingys lol.
I know a Weston who goes by West do that doesnt seem TOO crazy to me, I don't like it personally though.

I don't think i'm ever going to be allowed to use Jet (boy) I do love it though. Perhaps Sirius is out too, because of Harry Potter.

I like Ocean but it's too out there & hippyish for me. Or some plant names, like Damiana (can't think of any more right at the moment).

West is cool. Fiddle is not. ;P

Eep, Fiddle isn't good! Plus it often has sexual connotations in the UK (maybe in the US too?), and 'kiddy-fiddler' is a slang term for paedophile :s

The only West I know of is David Duchovny's daughter's middle name, which I think she may go by. It's kind of cute.

I like Boomer and Echo.

I would NEVER give a child those names but if somehow along the line there was a nickname...I'm fine with that.

hahaha, I had a friend who named her kids Boomer, Joshie, and Alleigh. I had never heard of anyone naming or thinking of naming their child Boomer before that or since then, until now....Do you know where the name Boomer comes from? She said it just came to her one day.

I have no idea where it originated...I just like it because it's an Oklahoma Sooner saying.."Boomer Sooner"...

I've known lots of dogs named Boomer, I just think it'd be a cute nickname for a kid.

I don't think a Boomer would get into law school very well...hypothetically speakng.

I actually know a girl named Echo. I'm not a fan of the name, but I think going to school with her starting in Kindergarten made me think of the name as a possibility for a kid.

Fiddle is all right. West, eh.


I'm rethinking Braille for an actual person.

Otherwise, I'd pretty much do any of the names on my list.

Aren't they from a movie? Or maybe that's Fivel Goes West or something like that.

Haha, that's just what I thought of.

I'd be okay with West as a mn, but I'm not a fan of Fiddle.

I like West, actually. And Noble, Gentry and Wisteria.

I think Gentry is a good name! Would it be for a boy or a girl?

I think it could work for either.

I love the name West, though I'd never use it.

I LOVE Indigo,Magenta,and Fuschia. I also kind of like Burgundy and Lavender. I've actually seen Indigo and the last two in a baby name's book. BUT...I would feel really bad!!
