I do not think Colt or Scout should be on this list. My little cousin actually has a Wolfgang in her class. I believe his mother is German. She says he goes by Wolfie

Annnd, at least Wolfgang is an actual name (maybe not as common in the U.S.) but still, a very common name in Germany!

I've seen Akira, its a Japanese name meaning Bright or Intelligent.
Wolfgang is a real name and I have seen Fox as well as Foxander (Fox-Zander)
I've seen Talon on a boy, which is a little better than Claw I guess.
Some like Creed, Dragon, Prince, Scout, Cove and Colt are more like words to me, not names.
Baker is more like a word or a surname and Simba just brings up pets and the movie Lion King.
Emjay just sounds like the initials M.J which makes me think of Michael Jackson.
The others all sound made up or possibly foreign in some cases.
I have seen some names that just stun me. They just seem so over the top:
There was a couple that named their son Dovahkiin (Doh-Vah-Keen) after the Xbox Game Skyrim was released.
I've also seen a girl named Brimberly (like Kimberly with a Br- sound instead of K- sound)
Jason Lee named his son Pilot Inspektor while Gwyneth Paltrow named her daughter Apple.
In fact my uncles name is Breeze and my other uncle is Blue.

the circus i was with had...
Shania, Shae, Shakira (not sure of middle names) and Wyatt Wild West
Satchin (after the indian cricketer) and Azalea
Talirra and Braxton
Memphis, Cassius Clay and Pesaeus
and another really off combo is a welsh gymnast and her family
- Romeo Casanova Valentino Romaeo
- Venus Valentine Romaeo
- Angel Aphrodite Romaeo
- Isis Ise Romaeo
- Achilles Spartacus Mars Romaeo
- Caesar Augustus Constantine Romaeo.
this is a quote from the website.... We knew we wanted to give our children unusual names from the start. My husband used to be a male stripper and his stage name was Romeo so we decided to call our first son after the three greatest lovers of the world.'

Scrolling through the SSA list for the year I was born there were a surprising amount of boys called Baby and Male. My uncle knows a woman with a girl named Female (Fuh-mal-uh).

I agree that Colt, Oak, Scout, Santana and Wolfgang shouldn't be on there... I'm not a fan of any of them though.
The rest are pretty bad IMHO, but I suppose it's to each his own.
I know people with interesting names, but most are just due to cultural differences.
Awkward spelling however? The worst I know of is a Danniyelle. [God knows if I've even spelled that right!]

Colt
Santana
Scout
I know a Santana and a Scout and I like both names. Colt is kind of nice fora boy.
But these are the only ones I would use!

Gotcha. Santana just seems like a surname to me. I can't see it being used as a given name.

Yeah, I get you. Though I do think it suits her very well!
I'll be honest, I love her actual name [Naya Rivera's].

And my friends middle name is Willamina. Not sure how to spell it. I remember she told me her parents couldn't think of a middle name for her so they took half her dad & half her mom's names and mushed them together.
Another friend's sister just had a baby and she named her Lanajia.
