Names you love but won't use

[forgetmenots]

For whatever reason - too common, bad with your surname, too wacky... Share here and someone else might be able to use them!

Mine are Autumn and Malachi...

[PetaO]

Cameron and Blair for girls... Ruined forever.

[loveulotslikejellytots]

Seth and Lilly. Lilly has been my favourite name since I was little but 4 friends have got Lilly's ranging between 3 years and 6 months. Seth I love but it reminds DH of the old guy in Emmerdale!

[Ihatepeas]

Florence and Oswald.
Have loved Florence for 10 years but 3 friends have used it in the last year.
Oswald is fabulous but I'm not brave enough!

[BardOfBarking]

Oh I love Seth too but dh vetoed it, as it would end up as 'Seff' where we live

[LesserOfTwoWeevils]

Isis and Dido, too prone to mispronunciation/sniggering.

[popsicle1984]

Blossom and Bluebell - Probably not sensible!
Isla and Ava - Far too popular!
Skye, Pearl and River - Sound silly with surname! River also fits into the first category!
Chester - Feel like I should have some link to the town but don't!
India - Feel like I should have some link to the country but don't!

[BleepingSooty]

Myra

[cookielove]

Cole - DH hates it

[wannabedomesticgoddess]

Tallulah-not brave enough.

[wannabedomesticgoddess]

Oh I love Cole aswell cookie! DP hates it too :(

[MrsSpencerReid]

Noah, unfortunate rhyming issues

[PuffPants]

Gabriel.

I love it, bloody love but DH refused - you can guess why

[pumpkinsweetie]

Anastacia, Sebastian, Armani, Chardonnay, Champagne, Perry, Bruno, etc......
The list goes on, lucky i'm not thinking of adding to my brood

[cookielove]

wannabeadomesticgoddess - man are rubbish and mean and horrible. I really love that name, its the only boy name that i think thats it!!

[HeinousHecate]

I always loved Savannah. And - I can't spell it but it's the full name of the main female character in Mannequin. Emehezeray, it sounds like.

[Strawhatpirate]

I loved Hector for a boy but DH was quick to point out that it was the name of the first in the gang with a gun in his and the first of the gang to die and the first lost lad to go under the sod according to Morrisey.

[Dogsmom]

Lily - always loved it but way to popular now.
Isla - surname too similar to 'Wight'
Madeleine - McCann
Joe - family are from the black country and pronounce it 'J-ow'
Arthur - 'Oh Aaaaarrrffurrrr' - Olive from On the Buses.

[Natnat29]

Ivy, rosalind, Frances, Elsie, Edith all vetoed by my oh

[DaniAnn]

Girls
Oakley (for a girl - and probably would use this name)
Indie.
Lamika. (La-meeka)
Rosalie.

All of which don't really fit with my last name.

Boys
Skylar
Flynn
Nathaniel
Jacoby (definitely my favourite)

Again, I probably have the most awkward rhyming last name.

[justhayley]

India - love it both think I'd get too may faces

[Mintyy]

Sheherazade. I'm too old to have any more children but even if I weren't I doubt I'd have the balls to give this name, which I love.

[TwllBach]

Virginia
Genevieve
Illiana
Seraphina
Persephone
Regina

And then I secretly like all the American surname names for boys, like Hunter, Carter etc but I would never use them.

[MadStaringEyes]

Julian, because dp hates it.

Colin because it sounds awful with dp's surname.

Edgar, because everybody laughed at it.
