Baby names are having a major moment right now. From searching for meaningful baby names on Google to hiring actual baby name consultants, pregnant people are doing what they can to ensure the child has a name that’s both special and memorable. Interestingly enough, some parents are even looking to TikTok to find inspiration.
In what has become the most recent social media trend, many influencers are sharing some baby name ideas they loved but didn’t use (or haven’t had a chance to use yet). Their recommendations aren’t your typical classic baby name ideas, though – but what do you expect from someone like Nara Smith who has children already named Rumble Honey, Slim Easy, and Whimsy Lou?
For a glimpse of some unique baby names from our favorite influencers, here are all of their baby name recommendations they’ve enthusiastically endorsed but haven’t used themselves.
