Why do elements have to end in "ium"? Who decided that?

only 83/117 of them end in UM. that's only about 70%.
Besides, naming a child Boron would just be cruel.

Guffaw! ROFL! Snort! (And so forth).
However, naming one's offspring Carbon seems appropriate. Perhaps more so with tacking on the middle name Based. Although it strikes me that there's too good a chance of the name being shortened for day-to-day purposes as CB, which just brings up too many memories of horrid non-disco tunes I was subject to during my own childhood.

theres got to be at least one elemental name that wouldn't drive a child to hate their parents.
Quick! To the periodic table!

What's wrong with Carbon? Seems to me to be a cool enough name. At least for a male person, I would think. Sounds kinda manish to my ears. Flows easily off of the tongue, and doesn't have anything that I can detect in the way of English language based embarrassing parallels.

Context: my wife instantly nixed Trauma for our daughter's name. Sigh. Later, I had this cat that didn't mind the name one bit.

Well, I think there's a kiddie show/ movie about some girl called Xenon (though it may be spelled Zenon). I've seen the last names Gold, and Mercury (as in Freddie), and my Grandmother's name was Goldie (like Hawn).... perhaps you could use Selenium, as long as you only called her "Selene".
I don't recommend Barium.

Selenium, which, to the best of my knowledge, occurs as a natural mineral in parts of South America, nowhere in North America, and seldom anywhere else, turns out to be a mineral well designed to prevent heart troubles.
Vitaman E is a vital component in the human body's ability to absorb Selenium.
I'm all for the strong of heart.

Neon could be a prety name. Perhaps also Nickel.
Molybdenum shortens well.
