I voted for Donovan, which I really like, but I also like Carsten a lot. Aiden is a great name, but if you are looking for "unusual" RUN in the other direction.


Right now there are five versions Aidan in the top 1000: Aidan (40), Aiden (60), Ayden (182), Aden (305) and Aydan (660).

i selected Donovan, but not sure what was being asked, which liked best or which was more unusual..however, neither are unusual, each are currently given and each are names.

unusual is River, Leaf, Morning Star, Soliel Moon, Betzaiarah (i have known a Betzaiarah).

uncommon is ancient, dated, not popularly given/heard..but are classified as names. Raquel, Warren, Regina, (until recent popularity, Paige, Olivia, Isaac was uncommon) Winthrop, Grover, Oliver (of course, some areas/countries have different popularities)

Hmmm ... I had the same problem with this one as with the girl poll -- I'm not sure if you're wondering which name is the most unusual or if these are just names you like that you think are unusual.

My comments on the names in general:

Carsten - possibly the most unusual of your choices, but very similar to Carsen/Carson, which seems to be gaining in popularity, and kind of has a feminine sound that I think may mean you'd run into a little girl or two with this name (and if that doesn't bother you that's great, just thought I'd mention it)

Donovan - I voted for this one because, although it's not unfamiliar at all, I haven't personally met a baby Donovan and think it's a lovely name, without being overly-popular

Aiden - I actually love this name, but it is uber-popular right now! I hear of a lot of little boys named Aiden, so if you're looking for unusual, this is definitely one to avoid

HTH! :)
