Choosing unique baby names is a growing trend among parents seeking individuality for their child, and it makes sense, especially since millennial parents have grown up with multiple Jessicas or Marks in their class; you don't get this with rare baby names.
Some parents may choose from a host of names beginning with A or maybe from a cool baby names list. Still, more parents embrace distinctive names, like mum-of-two Jasmine, who chose Maddox and Arlo for her sons. "I loved having an uncommon name growing up - it made me feel special, so I knew I wanted to go with more distinctive and unusual names for my boys," she says. And she's not alone, the quest for a truly unique name can be exciting yet daunting as parents try to balance creativity with their child's future happiness.
