I am a lover of people's first or middle names, especially if those names are uncommon. Maybe this is because my own first name is pretty uncommon: Sidra (which is Latin for "star"---one of many meanings of it by the way). Everytime I come across someone who has an uncommon name I'll often think: "Cool, I wonder why they were named that?" or "It's cool their name is so different."
I've just started my own collection of unusually uncommon names. I've become quite obsessed and everytime I hear an unfamiliar sounding name or come across one while reading, I make sure I write it down.
 

On this site, I will include various lists of names that are untraditional to traditional names that are spelled untraditionally.
But be patient, the site is still under construction. In the meantime, check out some names I've compiled so far... Enjoy!
