Russian Eastern Orthodox Old Church believers have fancy names, such as Evdokia (female) or Liverius (male). They are really uncommon because of a small population of Old Believers.
This person would probably be able to get away with living in the US without too many looks but this is a slang term for vagina in the UK so they might have a rough childhood there.
I'm in Finland, but most of the entertainment I consume is from the UK/US. Aoife just sounds quite different from all the other names I keep hearing so I assumed it's rare, but I'm glad to be wrong because the name is still cool.

Leila. I just love it. It's so feminine. I'll name my daughter that if I ever have a daughter.

The only person I met with that name, and only in small amounts, is Henrietta Lacks.

Isn't that just a diminutive of Frances?

It’s a slang term for ass in the US, so I’m guessing they’d get shit for it here, too.

I love that that is the name of the mascot for 'big ass fans' they have a donkey (ass) called Fanny.

In Dutch, there's an archaic name 'Joke', pronounced yo kuh. But in a more multilingual world it has practically disappeared.

Carroll.
Mostly guys had that name, though it was pretty neat.

There's a content creator called Aoife on the Eurogamer YouTube channel. I think the name is Irish/Gaelic, or something like that.

What country are you in? I know at least a couple of Aoife's (in the UK), so would imagine it's still pretty popular in Ireland itself!
