Traditional vs. modern/unique names? Which do you prefer?

[Lucy68]

For me I like the names Felicity and Madeline for a girl. And Benjamin, Caleb, Gabriel, and Sean/Shawn for a boy. What names do you like?

Traditional

Modern/Unique

I like unique names in general.
I love the name Rei which is my name and works for both genders.
Girl names: Fauna, Tori, Kim, Scarlett, Raven, Rain (can be unisex too) Emma, Lia, Lizzy, Beth, Rose and more but this is all I can think of.
Boy names: Ace, Sean/Shawn, Ken, Nico, Reiner, Eren/Erin (can be unisex too) and more but this is all I can think of.

I actually had a classmate names Nico in highschool. He was a funny and cool dude. The name Scarlett is lovely ☺️

[Blackcosmo]

Yeah :)

Completely unique names that I created by mixing two or more names together. And it doesn't sound bad either. Very unique and pretty

[Lucy68]

That's how my name is, it's a combination name

Love it!!

I’ll be honest with you. I don’t see a difference between modern or unique names. I see “what is common in my culture” and “What is new to me but not to another culture”

I like names that are unique but not made up. So for me I will probably choose a unique slavic or Italian name. I’m polish she’s Italian, both with grandparents from those countries. Try to use a name that was once in the family.

I prefer traditional names but I’ll give them a unique nickname. So for example if I have kid named Anthony, I would call him Neels or something like that.

I dont care as long as the name is meaningful to be honest. For the most parent, I rather have my partner name the baby, what could go wrong there after all.

I've tried coming up with names.
Think I'll come up with the best one when they're born when it comes to mind.

Fad names do not do the kid any favors. Kids can be cruel so why give them another way to tease the kid.

I actually have one friend with a more classic name and my other friends name is more unique

[Whatever2929292]

Honestly a mix of both

[SiberFox]

I like old traditional names

[TacosRAwesome]

I like a selective mix of both.
