Calling all creative Berries - boy, do I have a job for you!
I’m posting on behalf of a friend who is looking to expand her name lists. I think her name taste can be classified as “quirky vintage chic with a modern hipster flair” - that’s open to interpretation, I realize, but I want you to roll with it and come up with your ideas for both BOY and GIRL suggestions that fit the bill.
Hit me with your best stuff, Berries!
Thanks,
[name]Lemon[/name]
[name]Pearl[/name] [name]Aveline[/name] popped into my head. So did [name]August[/name] [name]Keats[/name] 0_o
That’s all I can think of off the top of my head. Hard bill to fit! Hopefully someone comes along with a more interesting and bigger list. Good luck to your friend!
[name]Juno[/name], perhaps?
Oh! Or maybe [name]Ursula[/name], if she can get past The [name]Little[/name] Mermaid.
Can’t think of any boys names specifically, though names from Greek/Roman mythology might not be a bad bet.
[name]Odessa[/name] for a girl…
[name]Bernard[/name] for a boy.
[name]Mabel[/name] for a girl.
[name]Booker[/name] for a boy.

Cool topic. I think my style is somewhat similar, but minus the modern hipster part. However, I think some things are subjective. Someone might say [name]Pearl[/name] is just vintage, but another person thinks it’s modern-hipster vintage.
Suggestions are harder because I know the person who likes these names! I’ll try not to list ones I know she already likes
Girls:
[name]Maude[/name] or [name]Maeve[/name]
[name]Gladys[/name]
[name]Leonie[/name]
[name]Vivien[/name] or [name]Vivienne[/name]
[name]Eveline[/name]
[name]Ramona[/name]
[name]Joy[/name]
[name]Eugenia[/name]
[name]Regina[/name]
[name]Winifred[/name]
[name]Mabel[/name]
[name]Opal[/name]
[name]Ethel[/name]

[name]Cosmo[/name]
[name]Edgar[/name]

These are really fabulous, Berries! Seriously, I might write down a few of these myself ([name]Leonie[/name] [name]Vivien[/name] is beautiful, [name]Becky[/name]!). I’ll talk to my friend and get back to you.
