What names would you recommend with this aesthetic? 👑

[Greyblue]

[name_m]Hi[/name_m] everyone

Okay, so this one is probably an odd one and a very specific one too, but I’m thinking about, vibing with and hoping to find more of this particular type of name!

I’m going to call them ‘19th century novel anti-heroine names’ and you are welcome to take inspiration from any/all of the following descriptions/ramblings:

If you want a brief description of the style/vibe

These names are often on the longer, frillier, fanciful side, perhaps a little clunky, a little fussy, possibly quite stand-out (though not always - so helpful). Think beautiful ballgowns, glittering gemstones, golden jewellery, butterfly wings and bold, winning smiles.

and if you want a longer, wordier description, here it is:

She’s not the ‘angel in the house’ but she’s not the strong-willed, determined heroine either, northe kindly, suffering, resilient lead either - no, she’s the foil to these characters, their not-quite-the-villainess counterpart. She’s most likely pretty and uses it to her advantage with any shame; she’s clever, in her own way, probably a little selfish too, but she’s determined to get all the things she wants and she refuses to suffer. We’re probably not supposed to like her - she’s a bit too coquettish and self-serving - but there’s something you (okay, maybe it’s just me) can’t hate about her. She’s the belle of the ball, the butterfly, and she may well get punished or condemned by the end of the story (or she might just win )

Names that give me the vibes
