Give me some outlandish girls names

Only stipulation is that they can't be 'made up' names and no creative spellings.

What's the most outlandish/borderline ridiculous name you've heard bestowed on a baby girl?

I know a Charisma. She's lovely.
I actually quite like some of these names Blush

Honestly Missy Pitts is genuine (Pitts is her surname) I did a double take and didn't quite believe my son at first, until I saw her name on her tray in the classroom. Very unfortunate case of not thinking about a first name and surname together.

Kyona
Petal
Pepper (which I love)

pieceofpurplesky · 14/08/2016 02:46

Duchess
Velvet

I love a lot of these Blush - wouldn't be brave enough to use them though.

Only 'outlandish' names I have actually met are:

Blue, Chymme, Katinka, Ocean, Antigone, Tree (?!), Karenza, Atlanta, Dakota, Summertime, Chastity, Pandora and Eriskay.

Tyger-Trinity. And I used to volunteer with three friends called Armani, L'Oreal & Chanel.

I knew someone at school called Wing Wong. She had chosen the name Wing herself as her English name after she had read it in a book (she was from Hong Kong) why no one gave her any advice about not choosing that name i dont know.

Cake no! that's terrible. '' Porsche, stop annoying Fairy''. No wonder teachers are leaving. Grin

Calico is rather nice, actually

CakeRattleandRoll · 14/08/2016 02:02

I've taught a Fairy and a Porsche.

LauderSyme · 14/08/2016 01:53

I knew a Carmelina once. It really suited her but her actual name was Natasha!

NoncommittalToSparkleMotion · 14/08/2016 01:40

Calico, like Alice Cooper's daughter. I'd never use it, but I really like it.

Oh, and Rarity, like My Little Pony.

FellOutOfBed2wice · 14/08/2016 01:31

I've taught an Amber-Skye and a Duchess!!

JenLindley · 14/08/2016 01:24

I know a girl called Oakley specifically named after the sunglasses Grin

oldlaundbooth · 14/08/2016 01:23

Knew a kid called Princess. Her family name was extremely fairy tale like too, the poor kid.

Canyouforgiveher · 14/08/2016 01:21

Jacinta was quite popular in Ireland for a while - one of the girls who saw the "apparition" of our lady at Fatima was called Jacinta.

I know a Naveah. I don't think it is in the realm of "trixiebelle froufrou" It is just a new combination of letters that sound ok as a name. Clodagh, which was quite popular in Ireland, was a name made up by some landowner in Waterford in the 19th century if I remember correctly - named her after a river. Fiona was made up by a Scottish writer in the 18th century.

I would have loved to name a daughter Isabeau ... the she-devil of Europe apparently in the 14th century. (I also LOVE the Scottish name Ishbelle)

oldlaundbooth · 14/08/2016 01:20

Theakston? ShockGrinWine

Merida Adventure sounds like a Mexican theme park. Maybe the parents went to Cancun and really enjoyed it Confused
