What, to you, evokes the sexiest image?
To me, I don’t think it gets sexier than [name_f]Veronica[/name_f] (a la [name_f]Veronica[/name_f] [name_u]Lake[/name_u], whose real name was [name_f]Constance[/name_f] [name_f]Frances[/name_f] [name_f]Marie[/name_f] Ockelman!)
What name is the fairest of them all in your eyes/ears?
[name_f]Lolita[/name_f]
[name_f]Celeste[/name_f]
[name_f]Venus[/name_f]
[name_f]Salome[/name_f]
[name_f]Scarlett[/name_f]
[name_f]Lola[/name_f]
[name_f]Jasmine[/name_f]
[name_f]Jezebel[/name_f]
[name_f]Alessandra[/name_f]
[name_f]Isobel[/name_f]
[name_u]Carmen[/name_u]
[name_f]Anastasia[/name_f]
[name_f]Isabella[/name_f]
[name_f]Aphrodite[/name_f]
[name_f]Scarlett[/name_f]
[name_f]Veronica[/name_f] is a great one!
For me, it has to sound sophisticated and like the name of a woman, not a girl. It also has to feel more sleek than princessy/marshmallowy
[name_u]Simone[/name_u]
[name_f]Paloma[/name_f]
[name_u]Vivian[/name_u]
[name_f]Ramona[/name_f]
[name_f]Allegra[/name_f] and [name_f]Scarlett[/name_f].
[name_f]Lolita[/name_f], [name_f]Aphrodite[/name_f], [name_f]Venus[/name_f], etc., all have connotations of languid, luxurious women, but these names in general with long “a” or “o” sounds tend to give me that image.
[name_f]Lola[/name_f]
[name_f]Rosaline[/name_f]
[name_f]Salome[/name_f]
[name_f]Esme[/name_f]
[name_f]Ismene[/name_f]
Some other random ones that feel sexy to me: [name_f]Jezebel[/name_f], [name_f]Magdalena[/name_f], [name_f]Jacinta[/name_f], [name_f]Fiammetta[/name_f], [name_f]Fiorella[/name_f], [name_f]Liora[/name_f], Lilit…repeated, lulling sounds, I guess.
I think [name_f]Marilyn[/name_f] and [name_u]Vivien[/name_u] could fit this catagory
[name_f]Vanessa[/name_f]
[name_f]Natasha[/name_f]
[name_f]Liza[/name_f]
[name_f]Emmanuelle[/name_f]
To me, it is [name_f]Viveca[/name_f]. I have no idea why!
When I think of sexy names, exotic ones come to mind like [name_f]Giselle[/name_f].
[name_f]Genevieve[/name_f] all the way!
[name_f]Inga[/name_f], female name related to the Norse mythology and being guarded by Ing, the god of infertility and peace.
[name_u]Dominique[/name_u]
[name_f]Victoria[/name_f]
[name_f]Soleil[/name_f]
I tend to think of (slightly) exotic names as well… for some reason Russian/Slavic and Spanish/Italian names seem to fit the bill for me.
[name_f]Natalia[/name_f]
[name_f]Natasha[/name_f]
[name_f]Katarina[/name_f]/[name_f]Catarina[/name_f]
[name_f]Katya[/name_f]
[name_f]Tatiana[/name_f]
[name_f]Alessandra[/name_f]
[name_f]Anastasia[/name_f]
[name_f]Karolina[/name_f]
To me, there’s absolutely nothing sexy about the name [name_f]Lolita[/name_f]. Romanticising [name_f]Lolita[/name_f] is just plain wrong and not at all in keeping with Nabokov’s own perception of the story. There’s nothing sexy about a name associated with a man raping a minor. The book is phenomenal, however.
When saying “sexy”, I think femme fatale names:
[name_f]Aphrodite[/name_f]
[name_f]Ava[/name_f]
[name_f]Circe[/name_f]
[name_f]Cleopatra[/name_f]
[name_f]Delilah[/name_f]
[name_f]Eliza[/name_f]
[name_f]Gilda[/name_f]
[name_f]Jezebel[/name_f]
[name_f]Morgana[/name_f]
[name_f]Salome[/name_f]
[name_f]Satine[/name_f]
[name_f]Scarlett[/name_f]
I know that most people only see an ugly old lady name, but there’s something about [name_f]Agatha[/name_f] that I find very sexy.
Also:
[name_f]Fiamma[/name_f]
[name_f]India[/name_f]
[name_f]Zoia[/name_f]
[name_f]Snow[/name_f]
[name_f]Lenora[/name_f]
[name_u]Cass[/name_u]
[name_f]Rowena[/name_f]
[name_f]Astraea[/name_f]
[name_f]Severine[/name_f] first came to mind.
Hmmm. Probably [name_f]Lena[/name_f]. Any non-cutesy [name_m]French[/name_m] name sounds sexy to me, too.
Ha, those would have been my exact words; don’t even get me started on the films.
But to be fair I think from a more modern perspective [name_f]Lolita[/name_f] has become a term in itself, taken out of the context of the novel. People hear [name_f]Lolita[/name_f] and think sexual promiscuity, yes, but not paedophilia. There’s ‘[name_f]Lolita[/name_f] Fashion’ and I think it’s a perfume now or something too. [name_f]Dolores[/name_f] [name_m]Haze[/name_m] isn’t necessarily it’s direct connotation.
Actually, I was thinking of actress [name_f]Lolita[/name_f] Davidovitch when I mentioned the name.
