Hi all 🤍

I thought this would be quite fun and interesting to do.. what are some guilty pleasure names you love? I'll start ..

Girl- Alaska
Boy- Koa

I'd never use these names as there just abit too out there for me and quite frankly, I don't even know if they are names 😂

I love Phoenix but never had the balls to use it. My kids all have traditional names that I love, but it just wouldn't go with them.

M0RVEN · 01/03/2022 19:39

Saskia, Verity and Perdita

chloboe · 01/03/2022 19:42

@DotDotDotDotDot Forrest is another of my favourites!

Persephone or Antigone for a girl
Darwin or Edison for a boy

Wailywailywaily · 01/03/2022 19:47

I’d love to have a little boy called Gideon and a girl called Phylida.
Unfortunately it’s never going to happen

StellaOlivetti · 01/03/2022 19:50

Ethel for a girl.
Lysander for a boy.

But I fear I lack the courage of my convictions!

Mines Tallulah as well. I love it and really toyed with it when pregnant but chickened out.
