Here's another giant list of super-rare names, none of which were used in 2016 (and likely for several years beforehand). See the last list here. As you'll notice, some of these treasures could be mixed in with today's popular names with no trouble, and some are still very unusual. Some of them might be too pretty to pass up!

Did you find Esmeray from my videos??? Or had you heard it before. It's one of my new favourites This list is AMAZING. (except for Bedelia...) -AmeliaEverythingBabyNames.
ReplyDeleteI saw it on Nameberry a few years ago and everyone was very into it as an Esme alternative until they realized it's pronounced ez-mer-EYE. Beautiful meaning though.
DeleteHow do I find your videos? I haven't gone on YouTube for baby names yet.
