Hipster Baby Names: 322 Really, Really Ridiculously Good Names for Your Kid

We know you're looking for cool baby names for your newbie. After all, cool first names can help determine your kids' cool factor for years to come.

And since some of us (raises hand) had the most unexciting, most popular baby names, this is our chance to think of something more unusual, interesting and dare we say it - rare - for our littles.

You can be like a celeb and go with hipster names - Apollo, Kingston and Zuma all belonging to Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale - or think up interesting names that weren't even names till now - Lyra Antartica is the baby girl of Ed Sheeran and wife Cherry.

We've rounded up some awesome baby names that make for cool first names for boys or girls. They can even find a perfect home as middle names, if you're still undecided on that, too.

What are cool names for a boy?

If you're wondering what cool baby boy names will suit your little peanut, you can't go wrong with a classic. Some of the coolest kids' names come from classic literature, which is why Byron, Atticus and Beckett sound familiar yet unique at the same time.

If you want a more recognizable name with a twist, go for anything with an X, like Jaxon, Maddox and Maxwell. If you think your kid (or their parents) are seriously cool, go with a rockstar name like Bowie or Jagger.

Aleph, Audio Science and Bear Blaze top our list of rare baby names. They may sound odd now, but maybe in time we'll see them as totally unimaginative. (Hey, we once thought Gwyneth was a little strange in choosing the name Apple.)
