Indulge me... DH and I have enjoyed ourselves today thinking of random words that could be names Grin A bit like when Uncle Fester said Dementia was a beautiful name. DH thinks Nausea could be lovely.

There are girls called Alexia out there, which I think is the medical term for losing the ability to read/write following brain damage. Sounds pretty, though.

The organ player in Pulp was called Candida Doyle.

Isis was getting popular for a while. I doubt it is now though.

Candida is a girl's name, and is pronounced Candid-a not Can-deed-a

I know it’s not a random word but I think Lucifer is a beautiful name, it means bringer of light and if you believe the stories it was Satan’s name as an Angel before he “fell” so in theory should be acceptable as Michael or Gabriel
Luckily for DS DH vetoed it!

I quite like Abyssinia for a girl’s name. Could be Abby for short.

There was a female character in a novel I read once called Sabbath - also liked that.

Supposedly Celtica is a name but I have yet to meet anyone called that and I used to live close to Celtic’s spiritual home.

@EdithWeston I remember playing Sims as a teenager and naming twin boys Basil and Tarragon. Tarragon is a much 'cooler' name than Basil!

Nausica in Greek would actually be Nav-siga, so it's interesting that they kept the spelling in the UK!

Randy is a popular name in Canada. I've known several. Makes for interesting introductions e.g. 'Hi, I'm Randy!'

Coiner, my next door neighbours daughter is called Alexia. I always worry when I'm shouting at Alexa (cos lets face it, she's a sassy little madam who ignores you as much as possible... much like Alexia!) she may think ii'm calling to her daughter sometimes Grin

Frankie Howard was in a comedy programme - Up Pompeii - as a slave (Lurcio). The daughter of the house was called Nausea IIRC.

We met a couple on holiday once, both doctors, with kids called Sam & Ella. I only wish I was joking.

I knew a Syrie, and also a Jordana.

I used to live in Poland and met an American woman who called her daughter Cielęcina, because she thought it sounded beautiful - it’s pronounced Chelencheena. Unfortunately it means “veal” in Polish.
