Tell me the names you wouldn't be brave enough to use

[spice3]

Always my favourite baby name lists.

The names I love but are too out there (even for me who's child has an unranked name) to use:

Boys:
Nemo
Zeus
Rubeus
Sherlock
Tokyo
Woody

Girls:
Bambi
Dolly
Birdie
Baby
Queenie
Pepper

Major guilty pleasure names my DP barely let me finish the sentence when suggesting these ones although I wouldn't have been brave enough to use them anyway 😂

[Flo84]

I love the name Woody. When we were choosing makes we struggled because my other half wanted traditional whereas I wanted something a bit quirky. I like River, Jacobi and Zachaeus.

[Spied]

I really love Lolita.

[Browniee]

Ophelia! But if I have another girl I’m going to push for it 😂 even as a middle name would feel like a victory.

I also like Jasper for a boy but DP is very much in the “top 5” names in terms of taste so anything vaguely unique and he panics!

[bridgetreilly]

Aethelflaed.

[LenoVintura]

I know a Dolly, a River and a Woody!

[scrivette]

Love these threads as DD's name often appears once!

Seraphina
Persephone

Inego

These were all favourites of mine for my last child and people thought they were very 'brave'. I still love them.

[Chocolateandcarbs]

Roman - I loved it, husband did not!

[LaLoose]

Inego? It's Inigo.

[NavyBerry]

Loveday

[Iliada]

It’s not Inego or Inigo, it’s actually Íñigo.

[nearlyfinished1moreyear]

I love Elvis also Dolly and Phoenix

[Naomimi]

I love Pepper!

[Oflawrence]

I love Pepper too!

[SpinySue]

Persephone and Torquil - we're not posh enough.

Loic - we're not French enough (I really love the sound of this name Low-ick in my accent Loo-week in a French one)

Ike - because its the baby from South Park and thats where I got I from and that's why I like it!

[NameChangedNoImagination]

KrissKross you have AWESOME taste in names. That reads like my name list and my daughter's name is on there.

Love Isambard beyond reason!

[Siablue]

Boudicca- you would have to be brave to carry it off.

Most of my girls list was not approved Persephone was on there.

[Siablue]

I also like Venita which is too much like Vianetta (which would also be a good name if it wasn’t and ice cream).

[M0reGinPlease]

Cassidy
