Probably…

Horace/Ferdinand and [name_m]Jack[/name_m]
[name_f]Boudicca[/name_f]/Enola and [name_f]Grace[/name_f]

Hm my outlandish isn’t super outlandish as I’ve recently shrunk my lists to realistically would use…

Boys: [name_m]Clifton[/name_m] vs. [name_u]Harry[/name_u]
Girls: [name_f]Delphie[/name_f] vs. [name_f]Faye[/name_f]

I don’t have any real outlandish names as everything on my favourite list I would use in a heartbeat but the names that I get an eyebrow at are

Fergus vs. [name_u]Noah[/name_u]

Damaris vs. [name_u]Taylor[/name_u]

I’d use every name on my list, outlandish or common! But to answer this question…

Evaluna vs [name_f]Faith[/name_f]

Alaric vs [name_m]Isaac[/name_m]

I know a [name_u]Damaris[/name_u]! [name_f]Lovely[/name_f] name :slight_smile:

Boys:
[name_m]Ewan[/name_m] vs [name_m]Thomas[/name_m]

Girls:

Ariadne vs [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f]

Maybe…

Tempest or [name_f]Liriel[/name_f] or [name_f]Eluned[/name_f] versus [name_f]Alice[/name_f] or [name_f]Isabel[/name_f]

Miro or [name_m]Zuma[/name_m] or [name_m]Indio[/name_m] versus [name_m]Henry[/name_m] or [name_m]Sebastian[/name_m]

For first names…

Boys- Lazarus V Elliot
Girls- Eupraxia V Miriam

For middles-

Boys- Sherlock V Samuel
Girls- Natasia V Rose

This was way to hard than it should’ve been. It has also made me realize that I would seriously name a child any of my combos (except maybe Eupraxia)

Hmm… I’d say

Aberdeen vs [name_m]Simon[/name_m]

Acadia vs [name_f]Lana[/name_f]

Most outlandish - Error: not found. exe has stopped working. :joy: For real though, probably [name_f]Heidi[/name_f] or [name_m]Edwin[/name_m]

Most common: [name_f]Emma[/name_f] and [name_u]Benjamin[/name_u]

Octavius VS [name_u]Oliver[/name_u]
[name_f]Apollonia[/name_f] VS [name_f]Isabella[/name_f]

Hrotsvitha & [name_f]Josephine[/name_f]
Eadwulf & [name_m]Theodore[/name_m]

Why was it harder to choose the most outlandish one?! :grin:

Coast vs. [name_m]Theodore[/name_m]
[name_f]Olivet[/name_f] vs. [name_f]Sophia[/name_f]

Same as people above, I don’t have many outlandish names, but ones that get a bit of an eyebrow:

Boys: [name_u]Marion[/name_u]/Aubrey/Vivian (if not a fan of ā€˜unisex but really seem to be girl names’ on boys) or [name_u]Arden[/name_u] (if comparing to my much less unisex list in general) or a name like [name_m]Herbert[/name_m] for old man names. (most of my list is old man names so they don’t seem very outlandish to me)

Girls: [name_f]Calliope[/name_f] and [name_f]Seraphina[/name_f] are the most different to the rest of the names. A name like [name_f]Cressida[/name_f] is probably one of my older old lady names.

Oh, I have so many outlandish names, but let me see…

Lachesis vs [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f]
Zakynthos vs [name_m]Robert[/name_m]

Boys: Viserys vs. [name_m]Jack[/name_m]
Girls: AnĆÆse vs. [name_f]Valerie[/name_f]

For anyone wondering Viserys would be pronounced [vi - se - ris] The ā€œseā€ is pronounced the same way that it is in ā€œsetā€.

I guess my most ā€œout thereā€ names that I would actually use as first names are Indigo (b) and Fionnuala ā€œFinaā€ or Andromeda (g). Most of my loved ā€œout thereā€ names I’d save for middles.

My most ā€œcommonā€ names I’d use? Probably Simon and Elisabeth ā€œTess.ā€

Unless you’re counting middles, then John and Mary (both are honor names, and Mary would be used as a double name (Mary-Clare).

So…
Indigo vs. Simon
Fionnuala vs. Elisabeth

Arthur vs SnƦbjƶrn/Erasmus
[name_f]Charlotte[/name_f] vs [name_f]Bellatrix[/name_f] (is [name_f]Bellatrix[/name_f] my most outlandish name?!)

[name_f]Antigone[/name_f] vs. [name_f]Victoria[/name_f]
For boys I’m not sure between the ones that aren’t top 1000 so [name_u]Vesper[/name_u]/Valentine/Leander vs [name_u]Elliott[/name_u]
