I feel like my name lists are super stale, and none are sparking joy. I was thinking maybe it’s my middle name choices that are weighing them down, but upon thinking about it I don’t think that’s the problem. I love the middle names and they honor family so I’m not looking to change them, which makes me think I need more interesting first name choices. I’ll give you my list which is feeling stale, and I’d love suggestions that are quirky and different. I started working with kids last year so a lot of names that used to feel more “different” to me I’m realizing are sort of what everyone who wants a unique name are picking.
Current ideas:

Talisker [name_m]Daniel[/name_m] (Talisker is a place name, located on the Scottish [name_f]Isle[/name_f] of [name_m]Sky[/name_m]. It’s associated with a whiskey brand, but according to Forebears, in 2014 there were 3 people with Talisker as a first name living in [name_f]England[/name_f] and one in Australia. I just love the sound of it!)

These are great suggestions! I especially love [name_m]Puck[/name_m], it’s one of my favorite names but I used it for my DND character in this years long campaign with my friends so I feel like I can’t use it on a kid now lol
