What name do you secretly like but would never name a child it?

I like Raven. For a boy- not even for a girl. Blush

And Wolf. I don't think I could name a child that, but I love the nn Wolfie!

Thor. Don't think it'd work out in real life.

Aphrodite. Again, love the name Blush

Rune. I just love the name for a boy!

Btw, I wouldn't EVER name my child Raven (for a boy), Wolf, Thor, Aphorodite or Rune. But I still love them.

Does anyone else have any guilty pleasure names?

Sharon.

I know many lovely Sharon's and always liked the name as a child. Am embarrassed but I really couldn't as much as I still like it.... :(
