Interesting names from outside the top 50 include…

Þráinn (masc., 3 babies), based on an Old Norse word meaning “obstinacy.”
Krummi (masc., 2 babies), which could mean either “bent, crooked” or “raven.”
And what about the single-use names?
Over 980 names were bestowed just once in Iceland last year. Here’s a sampling of Iceland’s unique baby names of 2023:
Here are simplified definitions for a few of the above…
Friðþjófur (masc.), made up of elements meaning “peace” and “thief”
A name that means “peace thief” seems very appropriate for a newborn baby. :)
Gígja (fem.), meaning “fiddle.”
Ösp (fem.), meaning “aspen tree.”
Röskva (fem.), meaning “vigorous,” “brave.”
Spói (masc.), from the Icelandic word spói, which refers to the whimbrel (a type of bird).
Gíslason — a surname that was likely used as a masculine forename (given that -son ending) — may have been inspired by Icelandic soccer player Rúrik Gíslason.

What other names have topped the rankings within the last few years? Below are Bulgaria’s most popular baby names of 2022, 2021, 2020, and 2019.
2022
In 2022, a total of 56,917 babies (27,813 girls and 29,104 boys) were born in Bulgaria.
Some simplified definitions for a few of the above…
Döggvi, “dew”
Dreki, “dragon”
Dýrleif, “deer” + “heir”
Fanndis, “snowdrift” + “woman”
Feykir, “fire”
Gigja, “fiddle”
Himri, short for himbrimi, “common loon” in Icelandic
Jökla, feminine version of Jökull, the #2 boy name
Myrkvi, “darkness (caused by fog or a storm)” or “eclipse“
Sumarliði, “summer-farer”
Svanhvit, “swan” + “white”
There was also a single non-binary name, Blær (“light breeze”), registered in Iceland last year.
Interestingly, about a decade ago, a teenager named Blær forced Iceland to legally recognize her name — which, at that time, was considered solely masculine — by taking the government to court. Perhaps that court battle paved the way for Blær to become a dual-gender name in Iceland? Hm…
The last time I posted rankings for Iceland, in 2018, the top two names (Embla and Aron) were the same.
