Wednesday, Pugsley, and…

Me and my wife both have a cold and ended up bingewatching a couple of episodes of the [name_f]Wednesday[/name_f] Netflix series yesterday. There are a couple of nice names in there - [name_m]Xavier[/name_m], [name_u]Rowan[/name_u], [name_m]Ajax[/name_m], [name_f]Bianca[/name_f], Enid… I feel like [name_f]Enid[/name_f] especially could become more popular thanks to the show, since the character makes the name youthful and fun.

Anyway, while watching, I started wondering what I’d name additional Addams children, and I thought it’d be fun to hear the Berries’ answers, too!

I know they got at least one other sibling in one of the movies (Pubert), but if we stick with just [name_f]Wednesday[/name_f] and Pugsley for now, what would you name their siblings? [name_m]Feel[/name_m] free to give [name_f]Morticia[/name_f] and Gomez as many children as you like.

Tried to pick something dark and quirky (or should I say kooky and spooky…), and my feverish mind came up with these:

Summary

[name_m]Hemlock[/name_m]
[name_m]Nero[/name_m]

Arachnia is inspired! I also love [name_f]Belladonna[/name_f] and [name_f]Hecate[/name_f].

I like the y ending theme so to continue that maybe [name_m]Misery[/name_m]? [name_f]Missy[/name_f] could be a cute nickname. Decay could also maybe work.
[name_f]Desdemona[/name_f]
[name_m]Mortimer[/name_m] (too close to Morticia?)

@sammaegre [name_m]Misery[/name_m] and Decay are absolutely perfect! Maybe twins [name_f]Missy[/name_f] and [name_u]Cay[/name_u]? :black_heart: :wink:

[name_m]Mortimer[/name_m] sounds different enough to me, and [name_m]Mort[/name_m] :skull: would be very on brand, too.

[name_m]Hemlock[/name_m] for a boy and Thirteen for a girl (or a boy, really) are inspired. Those are absolutely perfect! I love them! Totally deadly but still feel so charming. With Addams as a surname too, they’re so darn cool. I’m way in.

Perhaps also…

[name_f]Vendetta[/name_f]

@PaperGirlAC [name_m]Devlin[/name_m] is clever! Also I love [name_f]Antiquity[/name_f] - it sounds so classically name-like while being a perfect Addams style word name.

@Greyblue I love Bloodwyn! Feels like a good stylistic match for both [name_f]Wednesday[/name_f] and Pugsley. Also how cute would a little boy called Jackdaw be? And [name_f]Evening[/name_f]! Subtle but works so well.

@readingreverie Morbid Addams sounds so good. :black_heart: Also [name_f]Prudence[/name_f] is perfect - it’s probably thanks to the character in [name_f]Sabrina[/name_f] but it gives me a dark, witchy vibe. And I love Absinthe - like [name_f]Antiquity[/name_f], it sounds so much like a name!

@GenevieveReine I love [name_f]Carmilla[/name_f] (the book and the name :woman_vampire:) and it works so well - similar vibes to [name_f]Morticia[/name_f]! And [name_f]Melantha[/name_f] is a perfect mix of a sweet sound and a dark meaning. (My phone tired to autocorrect that to Melancholy which honestly feels like another good candidate, haha.)

@Victory55 Rigor is such a good idea! Sounds like an Eastern European name à la [name_m]Igor[/name_m]. (I like Mortis too, actually, like a twist on Morris.) I’m also loving Lithium and Anguish.
