What's the most out there baby name that you love?

[Sparring]

Which baby names would you use if you didn't have to consider connotations, public perception or fear of ridicule?

Strawberry(I love the sound but would never use it IRL.
Pepper(No idea why mine are food related.

For a boy.
Fox(That one is used I know)
Darwin
Sailor
Horatio

There's more but I've suddenly forgotten them.

What names would you use if you had complete freedom to choose?

I like Aniken but not a huge Star Wars fan

@Tay1980

I love Clover 😍

Also a fan of Celeste and Effie….can you tell I have boys?!? I have a stack of beautiful girls names to use 😩

Aphrodite
Ambrose

Herbert for a boy

I’ve always liked Hepzibah for a girl.

@Sparring

Other boy names I like but probably wouldn't use.

Jet
Wilder
Fisher(I met one and it really worked for him)
Thornton
Anakin
Cruise
Titus
August
Beckett
Whittaker

I love American style surname names if that makes sense,

I went to school with a Titus. His mates called him Tit. Affectionately, but Tit all the same!

Ariadne, I love it but it just felt too out there for us.

Piper for a girl
Thorbjorn for a boy (translates as thunder bear)

Plum

I've always loved Tuesday - wanted to use it for DC1 17 years ago, but he was a boy so I didn't have to fight!

Boys

Conrad
Fionn
Fearghal
Sorley

Girls

Ailsa
Morven

Santiago for a boy
Piper or Peyton for a girl

I love Santiago!

Bluebell for a girl. I'd never in a million years use it though

Oooo I like Piper 😍

I looked after a little girl called Navy James a few years ago, loved the name since but I don't think I'd use it IRL.

For a boy I like Hudson, Wells, Grey, Beckett, Stanley, Rhett, Edison.
For a girl my faves are Lainey, Aubrie, Darby, Beatrix, Callie, Alba, Reesa.

Adolphe, it's a family name but probably not the best choice.

Girl - Bluebell and Pepper. Vetoed by DH and as our last name is also a colour I don't think they would go!

For a girl I love Serendipity. Also Gaia, Demelza, and Angharad.

For a boy I love Atticus, oak, Cyrus and Julius

Ezekiel and Amaryllis

Girl:
Asteria
Stori
Astraea

Boy:
Leofric
Locke

Blythe for a girl is just lovely

Cassiopeia - sometimes considered too "try hard"
Galatea - as above
Persephone - as above
Nikita - often seems to be thought of as downmarket on a girl
Saga - could get called Saggy
Apollo - see Cassiopeia
Orion - gets confused with Onion
Wolf - I've heard both try hard and downmarket
Rollo - misspronunciation and try hard/dogs name

mispronunciation, sorry!

Oh and Merlin, but again "try hard", will be teased etc

Leopold 💪

Ember
Bracken
Misty

Basically the sort of names the riding school ponies or your childhood dog would be called 😁
