What's your guilty pleasure?

Hey what are some of your guilty pleasure baby names?

[name_f]Ophelia[/name_f] - This is such a gorgeous name. This is the one I’d be most likely to use, although it doesn’t fit in with my usual style.

[name_f]Lolita[/name_f] - I could never use this- for obvious reasons.

Xanthippe - [name_m]Just[/name_m] too weird!

[name_f]Ophelie[/name_f] - I might like this even more than [name_f]Ophelia[/name_f], but the pronunciation would be butchered in the US

[name_f]Olympia[/name_f] - This is another that’s just too weird. Though it does have the cute nn [name_u]Olly[/name_u]

[name_f]Chrysanthemum[/name_f] - This one is just ridiculous. Plus there’s a huge lack of nicknames besides [name_f]Chrys[/name_f], which I really don’t like.

[name_f]Bellatrix[/name_f] - Too [name_m]Harry[/name_m] potter, too out there, too weird

[name_f]Andromeda[/name_f] - See [name_f]Bellatrix[/name_f]!

Aneliese is my guilty pleasure, but my husband thinks its a bit too “much” for our daughter to be.

On my girls’ guilty pleasure list I have:

Belladonna- [name_u]Love[/name_u] it, but the poison connection probably isn’t best for a first at least. Maybe a middle?

[name_f]Medeia[/name_f]/[name_f]Medea[/name_f]- Again, really beautiful and ancient sounding, but it’s just one myth I’m slightly bothered by. But that might change in the future.

[name_f]Odessa[/name_f]- Was on my usable list until recently, but after certain events, I put it onto the GP list for the time being. Might be a bit better if I’d actually been to [name_f]Odessa[/name_f] too, but I’ve got time.

Cadmium- Really liked it after I first heard it on a character, but it doesn’t really translate well into the real world, being a poisonous metal and all :/.

Arsinoë- The first syllable, the middle 3 letters, and just pronunciation. I think it’s gorgeous regardless, but I don’t know if many others would agree.

Evangelise- Sounds so much like a name, I almost think I’d get away with it, but I’m not too sure/ keen about the meaning either.

Etsy- To me, it has a charming vintage vibe to it, but way too tied to the website.
Arachne- I don’t like spiders :p.

And my most recent GP crush; Pompeia. It’s just so close to Pompeii, which saw such a tragic event, despite being such an interesting historical site now.

I’ve also got quite a few names that go over my ‘popularity threshold’, so are on the GP list too. [name_f]Elsie[/name_f], [name_f]Florence[/name_f], [name_f]Eliza[/name_f], [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f], [name_f]Evie[/name_f], [name_f]Lola[/name_f], Freyja, [name_f]Imogen[/name_f], [name_u]Evelyn[/name_u], and [name_f]Matilda[/name_f].
