Well, to start this off....I've been a BIIIIGGGG DAVID BOWIE FAN since I was 12 years when I first discovered him in the movie Labrynth where I also discovered his TIGHT SPADEX LOL Anyway I've taken some names from his songs and decided that my future children should be named these unique names. My two girl's names that are my absolute favorite are....ZOWIE AND HERMOINE...... I don't think you can get unique enough than Hermoine..lol. Another unique girls name is AZURE, although it is not DAVID BOWIE related.

Um... actually I'm not sure how unique Hermione is... it is one of the old fashioned british names that hasn't been used much lately but i think after the harry potter craze there will be a few floating around in the next few years

THANKS FOR THE HEADS UP..LOL. I GUESS IT'S UNIQUE TO MY PARENTS. I TOLD MY MOM THAT I WANTED TO NAME MY FUTURE KID HERMOINE AND MY MOM ALMOST DIED..LOL ( I LOVE DOING THAT TO MY MOM...ITS FUNNY) SHE SAID IF I NAMED MY CHILD THAT SHED DISOWN ME..LOL. THEN SHE ASKED ME WHY I WOULD PUT MY CHILD THROUGH THE INSANITY. I SAID MOM....TELL ME THE NICKNAMES AND NAME CALLING YOU CAN THINK OF FOR THE NAME HERMOINE. SHE SHRUGGED AFTER AN HOUR AND I SAID EXACTLY AND BESIDES ITS DAVID BOWIE RELATED AND I SIGHED. WELL, SHE ENDED UP ROLLING HER EYES I THOUGHT I WAS GOING TO HAVE TO CHASE AFTER THEM.LOL.

One of my favorite names for a girl has always been lily. And the name Lily Grace is so pretty.
There is also Kaia ( pronounced kiya with a long i ), quite unusual and not heard that often.
Good luck.

Our daughters name is Kylie. I have not heard of a lot of other baby girls named that.

A friend of a friend named her daughter Emma Grace, and I think it's so beatiful. I can't think of either name without the other anymore!

I named my daughter Kaileen , and had many compliments.
Its not very common and very pretty!

[huntersmom03]

a couple of girls names that I have always liked are Kiara, Kylie, and Sydney.

HAYDEN!! It's a family name, and also my confirmation name. I absolutely love it, for a boy or a girl. It's unique and just sounds really beautiful.

I saw someone suggested the name "Linley" - I think that is beautiful, too! Really different...what about using a family name? My long-term boyfriend's mom's maiden name (phew!) is Krewson, which would actually make a really unique first name. We've talked about baby names haha -- although there are no babies on the way, or in the works, not for a few years at least!

I like Hayden Krewson for a baby girl, Colin Robert (more family names) and Conor James.

Graicen Faith
or how about doing some family tree surching.
i went back to my great great great grand mother and the names i came up with were very helpful.

[Z&Z'smom]

I can't resist. I have to throw my favorite into the ring as well. Eleana Grace. I came across it on a baby name site once and really like it. The site had recorded pronounciations as well. It was pronounced Ill-lee-aw-nah. I have a short last name so unique four syllable first name for a girl is nice. I almost used it but I could't talk my dh into it.

We are naming our daughter Amanda Grace-

Thought I would share!

We are foster parents of a 28 month old baby girl. We have had her since birth. Her grandfather (paternal bio) is reportedly from Louisiana and of the Creole/cajun background (Spanish/French). After 10 years of miscarriages and failed IVF and failed adoptions and ectopics, we always had names picked out. The boys we wavered on but the little girl's was always Isabella Grace. However, the birth mother named her another name that includes the biomom's first name as the child's middle and a first name that I can't stand. WHen we were first given this child straight from the hospital we were told her name was Kaila. SO that is what we and all my family started calling her. Well, 10 days later (after the birthfather decided he was the father) DCS called and said that they changed her name to this birthname she has now. Well, since this is a legal risk placement and we are just waiting on the tpr, we have continued to call her Kay Kay as a nickname. We only call her by the birthname for legal reasons. Even some of the documents have Kaila on them. Anyway, we had decided that if we got to adopt her we would rename her Isabella DIane (Diane after my mother in law) . Well noone in the family (mother, father etc) thought we should change Kayla. SO we decided on Kayla Diane. Then my sister in law had a baby girl and named her Isabel Diane. There went that idea. We have finally decided that "only by the GRACE of GOD" is this child in our life, so we have chosen Kayla Grace. I also love the middle name Grayson. I had tried to find a name that was of cajun/creole background as a thrid name, but have had no luck. ANy suggestions?

If we get blessed to be able to adopt another child (especially if this child is of hispanic or spnish heritage) I want to name her either Havana or Haven.

I also like Scotland and call her Scottie. I like Aspen but beleive it or not their is a child that lives in our small town that shares the same name (Aspen) as well as the same last name as we have. My son went to school with a child who had the exact same first and last name as my son. My son was constantly getting sent to the office for things the other child had done.

If we adopt a boy we will name him Landon Carter. this is a family name from ole Virginny . There are a set of twins that we were foster parents for for a very short time before they were returned to the mother. It's a good chance these children will be returned to DCS. If so, and we get them back and get to adopt, we want to name them either Ethan and Emma or Eva (AVA).

Another good name if the child is of hawian descent that I love is Leilani or Malia.

Just to add, our neighbors little girls name is Keiann (kay-ann). Simple, and cute!
