Unique baby names aren't just for celebrities nowadays.
Nameberry (via HuffPost) released the top name trends for the new year, and honestly...three of these names are my top names for my future children. I know my (future) partner has a say in it (so he would think), but I love Emerald, Faye, and Frederick (which is a family name).
The names I can't get with? Koala, Buster, Spike, Moss, Frost, and Hal. Like really, what are you trying to accomplish with those names? Haha.
Find the name trends below...and tell me which ones you like (or HATE)! Tweet me @mollieonair with your picks.
