Favorites?

I am a fan of what most people call, 'trendy' names.

Although Christian is a fairly common name and always has been, what are your favorite non-traditional names?

I am going to name my new baby Keagan, but the others on the list were names like "Abram, Landon, Conner, Tanner, Christian, Hagen, and Brayden. Also, my 18 month old son's name is Easton.

My favorites for girls are Teagan, Diem, Aurora, and Makenna.

Love Aurora, hate Makenna.
Connor is ace :-)

Non traditional names..

I don't really like any non traditional names. I do have a soft spot for Caden.

A couple of boy names I was tossing around were Caleb/Kaleb and Ashton.
I don't know whether they'd be considered non-traditional or not.

I finally decided on Brandon, though. :]

If you like Christian, I wonder if you would like Carsten? It's actually a variant of Christian that is used in Germany.

That is adorable. I have never heard of that.

We are going to have one more baby... and since we already have three boys, I am sure baby #4 will be a boy too... thus, I can still use it!

Ephraim. It's from the Torah, he was the second son of Joseph whow as the first son of Rachel and Jacob (my name is Rachel so I like it even more).

I like most of your names, but if you are naming this one Keagan, PLEASE don't name a girl Teagan lol.

and I saw your reply to someone earlier and my HS boyfriend's family had 3 boys and then a girl as did my grandma, so there is a chance you'll get a girl!

Oh I would never do a Teagan/Keagan, that would be awful:)

I think Easton and Keagan sound to much alike, honestly.

I'm ashamed to admit that I really like "celeb trendy" names...
Above all I envy their ability to use the most unique (actually unique, not kree8yve - Mackenyzee-ish names) names and get away with it without ridicule!

My name tastes (especially for boys) are extremly celeb-like:

Boys:
Drake
Deacon
Lyric

Girls:
Bianca
Laila
Carys

for example :)

For girls I like Matti and Ryan. Not Ryanne or anything like that, but Ryan.

For boys I tend to go more traditional for some reason. . .Gabrielle, Ian, Anthony. . .

Although my soon to be sister and law wants to name a girl Addison and I think it's way cute!

Same here, I am into a lot of the "trendy" names and really common names.

Boys: Aiden, Cayden, Shayden, Hayden, Jayden, Ryan, Nathan, Brent, James, Daniel, Caleb, Owen, Lucas, and James.

Girls: Ava, Grace, Adrienne, Jessica, Abigail, Alicia, Brianna, Grace, Faith, Rose, Lily, Sydney, Elizabeth, and Rosalie.

These are really popular names where I live.


I also really like Devin...for a girl
