I’m sure there must be some out there, but in the English speaking world I’d say it’s the most unique name I’ve heard.

    Neither has sigourney weaver, seeing as her name is Susan. Wikipedia says she took it frk. The great Gatsby at 14

      Yeah, the only place I heard it was from that story, Sigourney Howard, a peripheral character. No other Sigourneys ever (in my experience).

      I’m sure somebody must know a real one.

        Is it not a historical name? Like people have great great grandparents with this name maybe?

          There is Sultana al-Sigurnai of the Ummayad Caliphate, but I don’t know if that name would have been quite as popular in Western countries because I just made that up
