Adults complain about parents that give their kids weird names: 'This is a human being that will have to go to school, apply for jobs'

No matter what parents choose to name their kids, how they will feel about that when they grow up is one big gamble. What you consider a beautiful, solid name that honors your grandma they might find old-fashioned and unsuited to them. It also can't be denied that you are taking a much bigger risk when you go the creative route in the naming process. When somebody spends their entire childhood correcting pronunciations and facing raised eyebrows, they might not be so flattered that you thought they were special enough for you to get weird with it. 

This has been the subject of a recent thread that complained about those parents who gave their kids extremely unusual names. While some people pushed back on the assertion that this was "super selfish", many were in agreement that it's best not to go wild on babynames.com. Your children are better off standing out in other ways.
