Indigo Blue
Violet Skye
Sunny Rae
Sienna Rose
Posy Flo

(In that order)

I think Sonny Ray and Arthur Bear were the boys names....

I have 2 DS's with much less colourful names still holding a torch for Indigo

Paisley, for a girl. I thought it was the prettiest, coolest name ever

I like Paisley. Blush I like all of those -sley names (Presley, Ensley etc) that are reviled on here. I wouldn't be game to use them haha.

OP! Violet Skye was one of my definites as a teen. Also, Scarlet Rae is similar to yours. Lilac Rose was another of mine. Prior to this phase; I liked Zoey, Chloe, Stacey, Lacey, Macy and Carly. My friends and I would fight over whose daughter could be named Stacey (most desirable) and Zoey (second best) and the rest could have the rhyming names...

Absolutely no recollection of any boys names that I liked.

Oh, Lilac Rose is good.

Sienna Rose and Sunny Rae were identical twins though, so they needed to have the same initials Wink

Sage
Zoe for girls

Ezekiel for a boy

When I was 13-14 I decided Iwas going to change my first name by deed poll to 'Moffat'.

I didn't.

I can't use the name I wanted as a child because it is very outing. But when I was a teen I loved tequilla for a girl. Yes i know it is a drink but i thought it made a beautiful girls name! I have 3 Dds and all of them have escaped any names to do with alcohol.

I thought it sounded super sophisticated and rather posh! Hmm

Also loved Amber and Ebony. Toss up between Tate and Lyle for a boy I've always had a massive sweet tooth
Oh and b/g twins named Connor and Courtney.
