I like unique names, but some are a bit over the top.  I know mine and my daughter’s names are unique, but I don’t think they are unusual.  Well, at least I’ve never seen anyone raise their eyebrows or give me a funny look about them.  We have joked about changing her middle name officially to her nickname “Boo.”  (Key word being joked!)  Any way, I hope you find this list interesting!

baby names complete with origin, background and meanings!

Moon Unit
With siblings, Dweezil, Ahmet and Diva, you know father Frank Zappa had out-of-this-world expectations
for his daughter. This original name means “one that orbits the moon”.

Pilot Inspektor
Jason Lee and Beth Riesgraf were inspired by the Grandaddy single, “He’s Simple, He’s Dumb, He’s The
Pilot” enough to name their song after the tune.

fueled Sage’s creative side as he is an actor, producer, writer and director.

Fifi Trixibelle
Paula Yates and Bob Geldof named their daughter after Bob’s aunt Fifi and Paula wanted a “belle” in the
family. Her siblings, Little Pixie, Peaches Honeyblossom and Heavenly Hiraani Tiger Lily all enjoy just as
exciting given names.

from one of his books. The legacy will live on!

Jazz Domino Daughter of The Clash front man, Joe Strummer, Jazz is a proud feminist who loves crafting and was recently featured in Bust Magazine! Petal Blossom Rainbow Jamie Oliver and Jools kept the trend going after naming their first two daughters Poppy Honey and Daisy Boo. Petal fits in with the floral themes; Blossom is “fresh”, while Rainbow is truly a “symbol of hope”.
