Anyone into unusual names? - Page 3

I’ve heard Atticus before - I really like it, but it does make me imagine someone with an amazing library full of old books and maps

but I think that’s a good thing!

It’s nice until he suggests names like Lagatha or Ragnar hahaha

We found the name Xael for a girl, but aren’t sure if we are sold on it yet. We also like the name Thea.

Atticus reminds me of Atticus Finch from the book To Kill a Mockingbird. I actually kind of like it. Definitely not something your hear very often!

Atticus is a really original name and one I haven't heard of before. And old books and maps are always a good thing! I love old books and maps

Yeah, Lagatha reminds me too much of lager lol I haven't heard of that or Ragna before. Or Xael actually, what does that mean? Sounds good. Thea is also a good name

Lagatha is a character from the show The Vikings, which is where my husband also heard Ragnar and Odin.

Xael is a Greek name meaning from the sea.

We heard Thea on other shows we watch but one pronounces it Thee-a and the other one pronounced it They-a. I like both versions.

Oh I don't know which pronunciation I prefer. They're both lovely!
And Xael from the sea is lovely, the sea is always good

I do like that meaning.
I haven't heard of that show

I'm kinda digging Orion lately

EMS, I tried to convince DH on Lagertha. We aren't caught up on the show but watched the first couple seasons and she's a badass! And my family heritage is nearly 100% Scandinavian so I figure I've got some Viking ancestors. He looked at me like I was nuts.

Thanks Cupcake! I like them both too so it’s probably a good thing we don’t have to decide any time soon! I’m really hoping we get to use our girl names though! Waiting for June to get here so we can start TTC is driving me bananas lol

I only watched like one episode of Vikings, I couldn’t get into it. But he did tell me she was a badass lol I just don’t know if I could name my daughter that... and it would have been awful with our last name lol

Tankel - I love Orion!

I can't think of it being mentioned in the Bible but apparently.

LOVE Cooper and Porter but the kids father never was in favor of them.

Kairi is a character is a Disney game called Kingdom Hearts, Quinn (Harley Quinn but also the name of a little girl in the Movie Santa Paws) and Odin is a Norse God.
