If you had to change your first name to something uncommon, what would you change it to?

Robert'); DROP TABLE Students

Possibly more annoying choice: The right to leftoverride character
Can we call you little Bobby tables?
- that's how my parents call me, yeah
I was going to write SQL Injection as well! You beat me to it

Bort

Are you talking to me?
- No, my son is also named Bort
Don't do it! Novelty license plates for that name are always sold out. I've been trying to find one for 30 years.
- I was visiting someone at Yale, and as we were walking through town I saw a car with an actual BORT license plate.
  
  I was the only one who got a kick out of it though.
  
  It was 2 phones ago, so not sure where the picture lives these days, but I have proof somewhere!
- Found it!
Now why is that the first thing that came to my mind too??

SomethingUncommon

Not sure how uncommon you're looking for, but I think I already did this.

I chose Sage.

According to some quick googling (read: not sure how accurate this is), Sage wasn't in the top 500 names for my birth year, but my given name was top 100.

Though both names I've used have been trending towards more common for most of my life. Looks like my original name is now a top 35 most common, but Sage is still outside the top 100 for females and outside top 300 for males.(Really wish there was more data for the popularity of nonbinary names. I think Sage is probably one of the more popular enby names, so maybe it's not all that uncommon, depending on how you define it.)

Okay, but are you a lawyer?
- Lol. Yes I am! How did you know?? 😜
Cool name. I have nothing productive to add, but Sage against the machine just came to me as I was reading your comment. Please feel free to do with it as you wish.

Something old, like a name from Sumer, Akkad, Elam, maybe something Hittite.

Epirmupi, Shamsaki, Puzur-Inshushinak, Ninurta, Lugalzagasi, Tiglath-Pileser, Hattusili, Suppiluliuma.

Ea-nāṣir! 😂
- I would absolutely trust someone with this name in commercial dealings.

Dekkia.

I already use that name everywhere online, might as well put it on my passport.

New full name: Theophrastus Bombastus

That would be first and last. Not just first name
- He’s currently Jim Bombastus
Do they call you Mister Bombastic?

I remember that one

I'm loving the creativity here! To me though, "uncommon" implies that it's not like completely unheard of either. so, my choice would be "Midge"

That's just Jim backwards.
- Thanks, I hate it lol

Nebuchadnezzar. It has an air of nobility about it and no-one would be able to spell it, ever.

Peasants shouldn't be able to spell the names of nobility

Batman bin Suparman

Or this one:

I've already got a name that puts me quite comfortably in the 1% of names used in my country. It's not as cool to have a uncommon name as you think. It's easy to get picked on, you never can buy those souvenir mugs or keyrings with 'your name' and it gets misspelled.

I mean I've written a book where my name is on the cover and one review managed to misspell it...

Otoh. I once met someone on holiday in Ireland that said 'i one met a kid with that name and it was in Croatia, about ten years ago'.

That kid was me. If I had a more common name we'd never have known.

Any relation to the name "Otto"?
- None at all, though I do know someone by that name

Jimothy

Rosstopher

I always thought Ziggy was a cool name.

Don’t change your name to that unless you play guitar. As a non-musical man who gets compared to John Lennon a lot, I’m doing you a favor.
- Not all Ziggies play guitar.
- As a non-musical man who gets compared to John Lennon a lot
  
  Is that you, Ringo? 😛

Belize

Puck like Puck from A Midsummer Night's Dream

Reason: that'd be hot

That was my name back in Japan. Had to change it because it would be too easy to vandalize, people could just scratch off the P and turn it into an F or whatever
- Hey Pac-Man! How's Namco treating you these days?

Octavious Shitwagon

I always thought that Fox was a cool name for a dude ever since I watched the X-Files. If I had to change my first name, that's what I'd pick.

Throckmorton. Saw it in an example problem in my highschool physics textbook and I still think about it

Biggus. Now guess what would I change my last name to.

Uncommon in my culture: Makoto (disclaimer: I think Makoto might still be more common in my culture than my real name)

Uncommon in general: Kitty

selphie 😅

cute

Adrienne

"nil" or "null"

I don't know

I would name myself "I don't know"

Growing

Put that with my last name works so well

Johnson?
- To obvious but still funny. No you have to split my last name into parts and say it more how it looks then how you would normally say it.

Telemachus Or Uncommon.

Schamhorst

Galadriel, because of the reactions it would get.

Rrrrrr

I’d probably look at ancient Scythian names

Is McLovin taken?

Fleur

Zach, short for Zachariah. Variation of my fursonas name Zachary (well, technically Zach because he prefers using that over the full name).

Also the name of a Fire Emblem Heroes character I totally want to get more screen time because I think he's cool, as a casual.

I’d probably pick the unique name of someone very famous, in the hopes that I could still hide myself online by having references to me shoved 10 pages deep
