My name is really unique - Miriam. Not many people are named Miriam. It's a Hebrew name, the original form of the name Mary. I've only known 2 other people in my life named Miriam. I've grown to really love it!

Just because you change the spelling to something weird does not mean you have named your child something unique. It just means that people will always spell their names wrong and they won't be able to buy things with their names on it like other kids do. This isn't directed at anyone, just advice.

I have a daughter who is almost 8, her name is Dylan Rae. I also wanted something that was not common but that people could pronounce. I just met someone with a daughter named Michael Rose which I thought was pretty for a girl. I am due May 6th. Its a tough decision and I feel I need to see the baby 1st. Good Luck everyone!
