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?

Dp wanted to name dd1 Serendipity
I said No.

Gwendolyn isn't outlandish really, it's just old fashioned but very proper. I quite like some outlandish names.

My friend taught a Twinkle, apparently she was little with plaits and big glasses and it really suited her.
Years ago knew sisters called Mars and Aura, both of which I love.
Also know a Calico and Ksenya
Beija-Flor (hummingbird in Portugese I believe)

Flame I think is rather lovely. Also like Coco, perhaps as a nn for Constance. Love Ariel, but just couldn't use it. Also like Araminta, Tatiana and Octavia. Wish I'd been a bit more adventurous with dd actually. What are your favourites op?

My cousin had a friend called Loveday, it's Cornish I think and I 've always liked it,! A friend of mine has an "Eartha which suits her loads. At my dcs school, there is a Cara star and a Tia-Marie, an Oasis, a Seren and an Oceana! I like unusual names, fully aware I may have "outed" myself and not that bothered! Smiley face (actual smiles list not working)

My brother once knew a girl named Crystal Shanda. Surname was Lear.

Kate33 Loveday is Cornish and one d my favourite names. Wasn't allowed it though!
Some of the names mentioned are perfectly normal albeit old fashioned. Dorcas/Gwendoline/Mavis.

I was at school with a Loveday. She was the only girl in a 650 girls school who went by her surname.
