Bringing a baby into this world is a wonderful and magical feeling, and so is the task of naming them. Although it may seem overwhelming or daunting at first, naming a baby has always been a cause for celebration. When it comes to the topic of picking out a favorite, there are some names that stand out, and these names can be inspired by just about anything. Your family tree, favorite TV characters, a name from your favorite book, or a random word that just has a special ring to it.
The new trend is to give your baby a name that is unique and a little out of the box. With celebrities naming their child “Blue Ivy” and “Delty”, we see why this trend has caught on. If you want a quirky and creative name for your little bundle of joy, this is the list for you!
Mars
Isn’t this name a dream? Not only can you name your child after the planet Mars but this can be a callback to a famous singer’s stage name, Bruno Mars. If you’d like your child to be musically gifted or you come from a family that loves music or is fascinated with outer space, this is the name for you. It’s also an extremely memorable name as it is not commonly used as a first name.
Ace
If your baby boy is the ace up your sleeve, this is the name for you! If you are a family that loves card games or sports, why not name your son Ace? The short-but-sweet name is fitting for a sweet baby boy but we can also see a fully grown man who has the name, which is important to consider. Not to mention that your son will be in great company as Jessica Simson named her son Ace too!
Future
We can’t say for sure but this name was probably popularized by the rapper name Future. This cool and somewhat mysterious name is a great option if looking ahead towards the future is something you practice intentionally or give a lot of significance to. This is a forward thinking name and while it’s not popular it definitely has character and style. Would you give your baby boy this name?
Rain
Is there anything more beautiful than the rain? This unisex name just rolls off the tongue and is the perfect name option for your little boy. Listening to the calming sound of the rain is one of the simple joys in life. If you’d like a calm son who reminds you of the rain, go right ahead! This is also a great option if your baby boy was born during the monsoon or in a storm! You can also modify the spelling to suit your taste. Try Rainn or Rayne for instance. Such a cool name with a nod to nature.
Royal
If you’d like your little one to feel like a prince or a kind without giving him a name that is too obvious, Royal is certainly the right choice. This name has been slowly gaining popularity as it is unique and non-traditional. The name gives off an imperious and luxurious feeling while still being familiar! Would you like a little Royal for a son?
Bear
Now we know what you’re thinking. The bear is a vi.olent animal, why would we ever name our child after one? Well, the bear is also powerful, loyal and cuddly looking. This makes this name a hit on our list. Famous celebrities like Liam from One Direction and Alicia Silverstone have kids named Bear and they are adorable. If you want a sweet, cozy name for your little squish, this is a great option for you!
Maverick
This action packed name is a favorite. Maverick just sounds like the coolest name ever for your little boy and a great addition to our list of standout names. The name Maverick means independent or non-conformist. So if you want your little one to forge his own path and walk to the beat of his own drum this is the name for you!
