Names you love but would never use

[nicalibres]

I have so many names that I love but could never use if I ever have kids. In fact I don’t think I’d ever admit these in real life!

Lavender
Violetta
Galatea
Oceanna
Odette
Emerald

Fully expecting laughing or sick reactions to these btw

Does anyone else have names that are a bit of a guilty pleasure?

Prentice (after prentice Mchoan from Iain banks crow road)

 

[Mollywobbles]

I love the name Aurelia and wanted to use it for my daughter.
But my OH said it sounded like that bit on a nipple - aureola

 

[MakkaPakka]

Inigo. As in Inigo Jones, the architect.

 

[Jane Tee]

Pheadra. For a girl.
Then pixie geldof called her boy this. Ruined the name for me.

 

[Sibz]

I really like the name Persephone (per-seff-on-ee) but I just can't imagine calling a baby that. Plus I don't like how it would it get shortened - Percy, Seffy, Phoney

I like Odile for a girl and Benedict for a boy.

I like Xavier for a boy but would never use it

 

[Sibz]

I love the name Aurelia and wanted to use it for my daughter.
But my OH said it sounded like that bit on a nipple - aureola

I love that name too!! But reluctant to use it for the same reason. What about Arella? Less nipply sounding

 

[Snippysnips]

I love Severus but because of what it's tied to I'd never used it

Am kindi in two minds about using Fabian, Castiel, an Felix as well, my family see names that's a bit unique as weird even though I really like them

I do love sebastian an thankfully it's a little populer so isn't as bad

I like the name Mya but it’s an anagram of my name so….. no, lol

 

[Django]

I like the name Mya but it’s an anagram of my name so….. no, lol

Your name is Yam??

For boys I love Casper and Felix but my bf has said absolutely not and for girls I love Esme and Ines but wouldn't use them as there are names I prefer more and have had on my list since forever

 

[lastdis]

Harmony. Really like it but all mine have really traditional names and it would look odd with them

 

[watermelon sugar]

I love Felix but would never use it cos my fella doesn’t like it. Same with Agatha

 

[nicalibres]

I love Felix as well but it’s not something I could use. Same with Rafael.

 

[soymilk]

I love Felix but would never use it cos my fella doesn’t like it. Same with Agatha

woaaaah Agatha is another name on my list!! What's with guys not liking Felix, I think it's such a cool name?!

my boyfriend says it reminds him too much of the cat food

 

[jackieweaver’sauthority]

I love the names Isadora and Diana but my partner said they’re too posh

 

[Chilli_Heeler]

I wanted Tallulah for one of mine, other half vetoed that pretty quick. I still love it though.
