What is your most uncommon name?

Hi

I also have a Verdun, but this was a boy, brother of Lille!

I have found middle names of Kernon, Durant, Hetherley. I'm sure they must come from someone's surname but not found them yet.

I have found in  my family tree an illegitimate child born 1906 (a girl) who was named Ino I have the birth certificate because I could not believe the name in the baptism record was correct, but it was! I will have to wait for the 1911 census to find out what happened to her.  Inos mother was only 16 when she gave birth to her, and had two other children many years later.  None of the family has ever heard of the child (or so they say) they were so good  keeping secrets.

Kind regards Susan

As well as Andronicus, I have a Napoleon. His father was part of the garrison on St Helena when Napoleon Bonaparte was there. (He also named one of his daughters Helena!)

Amanda

Treandaphelia (female)

I wonder if this name might have some relationship to the Greek word for a rose, which transliterates as 'Treandaphilo' ?
