I would go with a more feminine form of Voldemort e.g. Voldemorta/Voldemortine/Voldermortetta/Voldermotelia.

can you imagine looking at your newborn baby and calling it Misery or Sorrow!!

I bloody can. My firstborn didn’t stop crying for the first six months.

I always thing Abigail is witchy but I'm not sure why.

Quite severe bullying, if my memory of the Bible serves me correctly.

Artemis and Lorelai and Zephyr are very gothy.

Misery
Sorrow
... both popular Victorian names. Don’t suppose you really want that dark, though 🤪

They were usually little ones whose mother had died in childbirth or they were born out of wedlock (so that the mother would feel shame every time they looked at them).

Xanthe
Melissa
Matilda
Penelope

Not sure why I think these are Goth - just a feeling!

@Lurkerlot

Eloise Isabella Violet

Good to see Eloise spelled correctly. It is NOT Elouise.

On the other hand, none of these names are 'dark.' They're lovely names.

Why would you want a dark name for a child? (Directed at the OP.)

“Come on, though. If Mum is a Goth, there's no way that Baby Northernlights will be a Goth in her teens, She's more likely to rebel by becoming a cheerleader smile”

Delighting in the thought of a cheerleader called Mortician

Akasha (Queen of the damned)

Lirion
Carmen

Morticia!!

Mortician would be bloody creepy 🤣

if you need to ask for a dark gothic name it obviously not what you want, let alone any baby

Prudence

Keziah (Kizzy for short)

I know a few people wearing, or having girls, with names found on this thread. I'd love to see their face if they realised people thought they were "dark" or just "gothic" 😂

Huh?

Ofelia as in offof Pans Labryinth

Ember
Sorrel

Annabelle

@crosspelican yeah I suggested Deirdre for the Sorrows connection but tbh I mostly associate it with the Coronation Street connection which perhaps isn’t quite the right vibe...

@medebourne oh relax 🙄
