Names you love but could never actually use.

[albertcampionscat]

I'll start:

Thaddeus
Salcombe (Hardy of the drowned violet eyes in the Peter Wimsey stories)
Malachi.

Rory, Reuben, Rowen - I can't say my 'r's and I love loads of 'r'names!

Hansel or Gretel.. even better if it was twins and use both names at the same time!

Suprised marnie so popular on here - reminds me of Georgie shore'

Geordie

Marnie is the name of a horrific character in the soap Hollyoaks.

Damaris

I really love Demelza! not sure why, it's nothing like other names that I like! I wouldn't be brave enough to use it as a first name, I'd consider it as a middle name though.

Penelope & daiciana

Montgomery

Montgomery (Monty),
Kalypso (Greek Goddess, also name of Jacques Cousteau boat, also a Greek girl that I used to work with)
Benedict
Billy Jean

And Danger as a middle name :)

Aurora

Aurora and Merlin. Definitely can't use Aurora as it's the name of the local leisure centre. People might think I'd done a Beckham

Re the Grace Gr... name - my maiden name begins Gr. Before I was born my parents alternately called me Gregory and Grace

Romy :)

I love Fen as a nickname, but don't think my Yorkshire roots would let me be flouncy enough to use it. Can I be cheeky and ask if anyone can think of a less frilly alternative full name for Fen?

Nauseous Stephanie/Stefanie maybe?

Eythor or Eitaro (waaaay too foreign)

Also Reidar

Bartholomew
Rupert (can't quite picture eitjer where I live)

Coco (too fluffy?)
Winter (love this name but not sure if it's too odd)

Fenton as a full name for Fen. Always liked that name.

Alice (who the f**k is ruined that), jezebel, zillah, nefertiti .

Mordecai, talen, ezekial, erazmus, agravaine and lestrade.

Oh and can anyone explain the balonz thing was that a real name?

Mordechai I'd totally use. Agravaine sounds like a headache pill, though I'm guessing it's Arthurian?

Lizzieoak agravaine is indeed Arthurian. I think it's a lovely name and could argue it's legendary!.

Rapunzel
Hermione
Judas

Oh and Gabriel

I may have made this up, but I love it for both boy and girl and can't use it because I already have a C named girl and a C surname so too twee all round.

Carou. Or Carew.

Makes me think carousel, colonial India, mystery,
