As a general rule, look at the names that were most popular in the last couple years and steer clear of them. My son was in a grade of like sixty kids with five variations of Sophie!

I see Sophia is still #5. Give it a rest!!
Names that are going extinct:

Yeah, Adolph is still unpopular! Good to know!!
Pamela is a pretty name for a girl, and rare, too! "1804th most popular girls name" according to the uniqueness analyzer.

Verlin or Verlyn, meaning "true" is a boy's name. Short, sweet, and extremely rare!
I'm fond of Roman history, and there are some great names to mine there. Some may have come from old names of the month: Quintus, Sextus, Septimus, Octavius, (those are the masculine forms; replace 'us' with 'a' for the feminine.) No, don't name a daughter Sexta!
Some girl names from Ancient Rome: Lucia, Gaia, Marcia, Publia, Paulla, Quinta, Titia, Tiberia. Again you can swap 'a' for 'us' to get the masculine forms. Beware, Tiberius was a lousy emperor.
Cicero, Cato, and Julius were great orators. Sulla, Scipio, and Trajan were great generals. Augustus and Hadrian were great emperors (Yo, Hadrian).

@Ashly My pleasure! My wife & had the fun of picking two names a while back and I still enjoy the topic. Some of the funny suggestions that came our way: "Professor," (from a fellow grad student) "Agamemnon," (the King of Men) and "Tecumseh." In the book "Catch 22" there is a soldier named "Major Major" who is rapidly promoted to the rank of Major due to a bureaucratic slip-up!

@ElwoodBluesim glad you two had fun deciding on names ☺️

Lily for a girl. I was going to use that name if I had a daughter but I ended up with boys.

It's better not to lumber kids with 'wild and unusual' names. Growing up is an obstacle couse as it is, without adding extra burdens.

@Ashly The book was called [i]'Remarkable[/i] Names of Real People or How to Name your Baby'. I remembered it incorrectly.
I now have a copy! Someone in my family had one years ago and I always thought it was fun, so I got a secondhand copy.
I just opened it at random and found:
A. Toxen Worm
Ave Maria Klinkenberg
Private Baby Cherry, U.S. Army
Bambina Broccoli
Basil Crapster
Sir Basil Smallpeice
Bathsheba Finkelstein
B Brooklyn Bridge
Rev. Blanco White
Mrs Belcher Wack Wack
And so it goes on. All the foregoing are from the USA, with the exception of Smallpeice, who was British. And let's not forget:
Cardinal Sin, Archbishop of Manila
Humperdink Fangboner
John Senior, Jr.
Katz Meow
Lettice Goedebed
🙂

When we were expecting our second, I was really wanting the name Quinn for a boy. Just thought it would be neat to call him "Q". Anyways, it was a girl so my wife and I didn't have to battle that.

Katrina or Trinity for a girl.
I like my son’s names of Keith and Benjamin although Ben hated his name.
