My biggest issue with made up names is that they're typically very close in sound to existing names so there is a good chance people will easily confuse them especially since most people have never heard of them before. For example, I can definitely see people mishearing Brylie as Rylie. That and they lose that sparkle to me when they sound so close to a popular existing name (think of the Aiden, Jayden, Brayden, Hayden craze of the 2000s). Interesting list regardless. I'm curious if any of these will stand the test of time or if they will become dated to the 2020s. I will say that I do love invented literary names and would love a video on those!

I hear ya! They are typically not my style but there seem to be more and more every year

I like Zade a lot. I first heard that name from another KZreadr, lifestyle YT channel... their son is named Zade. I have a son named Zane and Zade would be a great alternative to that name if you want an even more uncommon name than Zane but like the same feel of it. Love your list.

Thank you!!

While the sound is nice, I hear the name Nevaeh made fun of A LOT. I’d personally steer away from it. I’m surprised it’s so high up in the charts.
