Ooh my daughter’s name is on here! Wouldn’t have called it dark or gothic but I have been told it’s a bit witchy so maybe it fits Grin
I actually quite like Wednesday but maybe it’s a bit on the nose and not the right sort of ‘dark’ given they are, actually, light hearted films...

It has to be Raven, which is the coolest name and the coolest bird in the whole wide world!

But can I ask, why do several PPs think Elvira is a gothy name? It was my Great auntie's name and we almost gave it to DD.

Beautiful name with a lovely meaning 'joyful' - does not seem very goth to me!
