Some possible pop culture influences for the female names include: Mexican actresses Arleth Terán and Karyme Lozano, American singers Beyoncé Knowles and Rihanna, American actress Gwyneth Paltrow, and Mexican reality TV star Jolette Hernández.
(I’ve also done one-hit wonder lists for the 1880s, 1900s, 1920s, 1940s, 1950s and 1990s.)

This si a pretty unique name..My niece was born ”SummerLeigh” on November 23rd 2003..Her litte sister was born 2 years later on Christmas day,her name is KD…Whatcha think??
Summerleigh is actually spelled ‘Summer-Leigh’..She doesn’t have a middle name,its just Summer-leigh Hyder..Pretty unique,eh?
Those are both pretty unusual — thanks for sharing!
PS – Is KD’s full name “KD,” or is it short for something?
Once I saw the name ‘Yver’ but it was pronounced like the word ‘ever’…I thought it was really cute!
