Fantasy girls names......what would you love to have but never be allowed.....

[boodleboot]

i saw a brilliant thread that was the same subject as this but for boys.....interested to see what girls names we all love but not mad/brave enough to use....

i love Guinevere and Sheherazade.....i'm not even sure how to pronounce sheherazade and i still love it.....

love the name Scout - also my fav literary character of all time.

musicposy - there's a little French girl called Toscane (French for Tuscany) in my DD's class.

mamazon - that is so funny as my step daughter is called Ellesse {pronounced Elise} and apparently that was actually after her brothers trainers....can i just point out that my now DH was not with her mother at the time of naming as they had already split up....she is widely known as Ellie anyway....

i think sheherazade is sheh-heh-ra-zah-day - which i think is beautiful....infact i am putting it firmly back on my list....

I love the name Serafina as remember seeing it on an old family grave but as my married name isnt remotely Italian sounding it kind of jars which is a shame. Im also loving Lyra as just finished reading Northern Lights but Im fickle like that!

lockets sher herrah zade like lucozade?

Lyra reminds me of that awful lyclear nit lotion i have had to use on my children....

I love Bronwen and Eden but hubby doesn't !good job we had boys ! lol

"sheherazade is sheh-heh-ra-zah-day" wow what a mouthful

I love Velvet, Persephone, Aurora, and Delphine.

Didn't have enough girls though

Oh, and Celandine

I love Delphine too poppity and also Genevieve, Isolde and when i was a little girl i really liked Ariadne (i think that was the girls name in the water babies - my fav film ever!) One of our friends has a little girl named Elspeth, i think its lovely. I quite like Theadora too

lucy - vetoed by my husband at the time

Alicecrail, I love your names.

Remembered Guinevere too.

A woman I work with has a daughter called Lyria which I think is absolutely beautiful but I couldn't steal it from her.

Topaz - love it

Christabel

Celery one of my aunts always thought my name was Christabel (its not, its Christie)

OOh fantasy name topic!

Seraphina
Berengaria (Richard the Lionheart's queen, fact fans )
Zuleika
Bathsheba
Oenone
Persephone
Andromeda
Cassiopeia

Oh I could go on for hours

Geneviève (à la française) is a clunky old lady name. Mabel or Millicent equivalent...

Lyra (got roundly handbagged for this by mum and sister and gave up on it, then had a boy anyway).

Claudia/Octavia/Livia (I love I, Claudius)

i also adore Hero.....but vetoed .....and Sheba.....vetoed....and Isis.....vetoed....and Elvie....vetoed.

shame.

Willow
Fawn

I tried desperately to talk DH round but he hated them so much we couldn't even use them as middle names
