What are your guilty pleasure names?

[LipsyGirl]

Names you’d never use but would love to?

whatausername

I was watching that 2012(?) version of Jesus Christ Superstar they put on YouTube the other week and concluded that Judas was by far the best character and had quite a good point. So, on the basis of a Lloyd Webber musical I’ll say go for it! don’t, obviously!

I love Evelyn for a boy. I think I would just use it though.

Cascada (Cassie)

Kerry
Velvet
Shirley 🙈

Clementine
Meadow
Rain
Sunday
Autumn
Elspeth
Clemency

Would have loved to have had a boy to give him the name Beauregard.

@Standrewsschool I told DH, laying groundwork for DC3 Maybe I’ll get lucky with twins, that would make naming fun!

Aeryn (swoon)
Juniper
Autumn
Peony
Posy

I'm hoping if I one day have a DD that i could convince DH to go for one of these but I highly doubt we would use one.

I also love Manon. It's very common in the country where I spent summers as a kid (you can probably guess which one from this) but not so much here, and DP thinks she would get bullied

Karen
Angela

Clive

Kite
Etienne (not French enough)
Snow
Loxley

DH has vetoed all of these but we will probably end up going with one of our ‘brave’ names...

Sapphire
Cinderella

I really love the name Clementine, but now it just reminds me of that racist mummy blogger so couldn't use it.
I also love but wouldn't use Hazel (nut) and Cordelia (a bit too pretentious?). For boys I really like Silas and Otis, but couldn't use them as they are the names of close friends' kids.

Soo many but played it safe. Didn't want to saddle them with a peculiar name

Boys

Roman
Calvin
Lorenzo -were northern and it would sound ridiculous in our accent
Cary - I love this name but my other half has no taste

Girls

Shilo
Cleo
Honor
Olympia

Ariadne. We are not posh enough & it does not work with either of our surnames.

The Ariadne that I know is a trillion miles from posh, believe me

I also love Manon. It's very common in the country where I spent summers as a kid (you can probably guess which one from this) but not so much here, and DP thinks she would get bullied

^^ I love this name! Didn't know it was a real name though. Know it from a book series

@chunkyrun yeah, it is a beautiful name, and a few girls had it where I was growing up. I would use it for a girl if DP let me, but he likes more ordinary names, so I would need to fight for it.
