I’m a big proponent of normal/semi obscure normal first name, weird middle name. John W Smith if you work in sales, J Wolfgang Smith if you’re an author. Perfect compromise.
We gave our daughter a somewhat disused but normal and formerly not uncommon name which was the name of a plant. We just wanted a name that wasn’t religious but still normal enough that she wouldn’t get bullied for it (she got bullied anyway). We realized later that it actually made sense in terms of her ancestry because her mother has a plant name, her grandmother has a plant name and her great-grandmother had a plant name. One long lineage of plant names.

Describing it like that makes it really tempting to try and guess the name. Out of respect for your and her privacy, I won’t, though.
Okay, I admit it. Her name is Cannabis Indica.
Ngl having “Wolfgang” as an example for a weird name was really strange to read for me… but I’m German.
