What's the oddest name you've found?

[JAKnighton]

Not really odd, these ones from the top of my head, people I was as school with, and a few friends - don't hear many kids with them these days.  All in their 70s these days.

Lynette, Janice, Maureen, Leonie, Roderick, Tony, Philip, Diana, Geraldine, Yolande, Kevin, Brian, Garry, Glenn, Maurice, Warren. Graeme, Peter, Donald.

My grandmother and aunt are named Yolanda. My grandmother is Scottish and she was named after a (much older) cousin called Yolanda Marchi, who was half-italian.

My goodness JAK - all your names have just triggered memories.  Like you, some are school friends, some are work friend, then some are cousins, one a brother, one an ex husband, one my first kiss, other friends, a caretaker where I live now, 7 crushes - or boyfriends. I also have a friend Yolande, (her parents Dutch).

Maybe not "Oddest" but certainly different & beautiful....forename "Caluna"...love it!!!

Annie

Others which are "different", Cairn, Skye, Brie & Chardonnay although there are others.

Was Cairn used as a forename Annie ? Cairn(s) was my maiden name many moons ago

I love Caluna though it is very beautiful

I have ancestor siblings Alius and Dalius but as yet their gender is unknown.

[Zoe-Hannah]

I know Alexander isn't an odd name, but his middle was, Glass.! his full name Alexander Glass Jones

I know Alexander isn't an odd name, but his middle was, Glass.! his full name Alexander Glass Jones

My guess that was after someone with the surname Glass. His mum or grandmother's maiden name perhaps or someone associated with the family they wanted to either honour or flatter.

Not in my own tree but I know of a person with forename Caluna which is lovely.

My Gt Grandfather was called Fias,

I knew someone named Fia(z)/(s) but can't be sure of the spelling & he was of Eastern origin possibly Indian, he worked in our local Indian Restaurant?

Hi, sorry for the late response. This is interesting as coincidentally my Fias married a lady of Indian extraction. However his own family had no Indian connection that I'm aware of.

Thanks anyway.
