Gothy Baby Girl Names

Hi all,

Dh and I are a little bit gothy. Well, goths that grew up and got jobs and whatnot. But still really like all things dark, mystical and Victoriana.

We're expecting a little girl soon but still at the brainstorming stage for names.

So far we like:

Ophelia
Briar
Hazel
Beatrice
Cecily
Opal
Phaedra
Violet
Morgan / Morgana

Don't love anything yet.

Can you think of anything we might like? Not comedy witch-style, but would fit our taste. Middle names too please - have no family ones that we'd like to use.

DS is Vincent Zephyr.

Sally can be pretty goth, if you're into Tim Burton I suppose.

From your revised shortlist, my votes go to:

  1. Morgana (apologies for suggesting it again earlier: I am dim and hadn't noticed you'd already included it in your original post!) /Morgan
  1. Allegra
  1. Briar

Some really interesting names from everyone.

My daughter is Genevieve and is named after a vampire in a Warhammer book Wink

Sorry Thalia but it's from a character in Antonia Forest's books, Thalia nicknamed Tim. Thalia is great in itself of course Grin.
