Unusual real name: Queen Quedith Earth

Olympic hurdler Queen Quedith Earth Harrison has two siblings also named Queen. So her mother calls her by one of her middle names, Quedith (pronounced KWEE-dith), which is a combination of “queen” and “Edith” (her grandmother’s name).

In total, she has eight siblings. All the kids were named by their father, who “chose the names based on the traditions of The Nation of Gods and Earths, an offshoot of the Nation of Islam.”

Her five sisters are named Queen Graceful, Queen Zuequal, Muun, Princess Gemisa Wisdom, and Empress. Her three brothers are King Master, Victory, and God Goldin Zig Zag Zig Allah (who goes by “Goldin”).

Please note that I did include names in the gray area between one syllable and two syllables. The deciding factor on these particular names will be your own interpretation/accent, so be sure to test the names out loud before making any final decisions. (“Hayle,” for instance — would you say it like Hale, or like Hailey? Or “Rise” — is it rize, or ree-sah?)

Many of these names also happen to be unisex, so they appear on the one-syllable boy names list as well.
