Poet is one of the most stylish, stand-out occupational names, and Poetic puts a fresh spin on this artsy, lyrical choice.

Upstanding to a fault.

A big name to bestow upon a baby, but in line with word names that are becoming increasingly fashionable, such as Legend, Miracle, and Royal.

Unashamedly grandiose word name.

Devoted would certainly stand out and make a statement as a first name, but could make for a cool middle name with religious undertones.

An unassuming virtue, that is also a surname name.

Asking for trouble.

Too much pressure to put on a child.

With word names and modern virtue names such as Sunny, Lucky, and even Blessed gaining in popularity, an upbeat adjective name such as Cheerful seems like a reasonable possibility.

Old fashioned nickname that some girls just might be able to pull off. You'd just have to be sure your little Fancy was one of them.

Lyric is a name given to over 1000 boys and girls each year in the US. Could the more feminine Lyrical (given to only 20 girls each year) become more popular as parents look to find less common alternatives to this musical name?

Wise is a lovely virtue to bestow upon a baby, as seen through the increasingly popular unisex choice Sage. Wise would make for a perfect middle name with the one-syllable flow.

A brilliant choice, but one that has more potential for baby girls.

If Victor isn't quite enough, this superlative word name is another option.

A self-assured virtue name that has seen a little more use in recent years.

A modern virtue name, particularly desirable in this pressure-cooker world.

A sunny-sounding surname or an adjective meaning "only when the going's good" – as in, a fairweather friend.

Notorious debuted on the charts for boys in 1995, at the height of The Notorious B.I.G.'s career.

As Ireland becomes fashionable as a place name, bouncing on and off of the US girls charts thanks to Kim Basinger and Alec Baldwin choosing it for their daughter, some parents may start to consider the adjective form Irish. It may feel like an odd choice to those living in Ireland, just as American would stand out as on option in the US, but sound-wise, it probably appeals as an alternative to Iris.
