Maybe I'm weird, but my GP's are names that are too "out there"... and there aren't many.

GP's:

Avalon - Only place name I really like... just doesn't fit my other names.
Astor - Begins with a$$
Antigone - Oedipus complex, anyone?
Allegra - stupid Allergy meds!
Akira - I'm not Japanese... it would be weird
Cassiel - ... I'm really too obsessed with Supernatural. Jeez.
Celeste - too many bad word to rhyme with
Cosima - love it. Cosima Plum, Cosima Violet are faves, but I don't think I have the guts to use it.
Delphine
Demi - Starts with "dim," I'm only ok with that on Dmetri/Demetri because it is more like Duh-me-tree when I say it.
Freya/Freja - Prefer Fiona so I gave up Freya
Gemma - Sounds like Jimma, and Jim is a boy name
Hikari - Japanese. I get these from all the manga I read.
Indigo - feels trendy, but I love the nn Indie.
Jezebel - obvious, but it is still the "bel(le)" name I like the most
Juniper - love June as a nn, but it does not go with any other name I like
Kaede - Again, I'm not Japanese! They have so many nice names. :'(
Katrina - Hurricane
Lark - like it because my mom's maiden name is Larkin (which is too masculine), but a lark makes me think of jokes
Lirael - From a Garth Nix book. I won't use it because it's made up.
Maren - Just don't quite like it enough to use
Margo - Margot makes me think of maggots. On the fence for Margo, may end up a middle name.
Mischa - Love love love love love this, but it is too much of a boy name and I'd only use it on a girl.
Nell(ie) - I love it but it makes me think of horses too much. Whoa Nellie! Still could be Penelope nn, though.
Paisley - I don't usually like "thing" names, but Paisley has really grown on me.
Plum - too fruity
Pomeline - don't quite like it enough. Back-burner name.
Sadie - starts with "sad"
Saffron - Saffy is an adorable nn... but it's too out there for me. I may give in and use it as a mn, but that kind of gets rid of the nn.
Serenity - Seren made my list, but Serenity is so "virtue" name.... and with Saffron it makes me look like a Firefly nerd
Sora - so pretty, but it doesn't fit and I don't like it quite enough to use it anyway.
Romilly - Romy is lovely, but I can't see myself using this.
Waverly - Wizards of Waverly place. Most people seem to hate Waverly.
Zara - too witchy


Alaric - Sounds too stuffy for a real kid.
Alistair - ditto.
Beau - I like it but its too much of a thing, you know?
Caspian - love it, but every other time I hear it I think, "cass-pee-an" and the "pee" portion bugs me
Clay - SoA... I get too many of my names from TV shows...
Dante - Too much Inferno for me.
Dash - Too verby for me to use, especially since there are no good full names. Dasheill is really not for me.
Edwin - can't stand Ed/Eddy nn
Emrys - Another name for Merlin. I fell in love with it after loving the BBC series.
Felix - Cat name.
Gray - Heather is a gray color, and I like the connection.
Jericho - No idea why this appeals to me, it just does.
Leander - I just don't think I'd use it
Ptolemy - love love love it... this one I got from one of my favorite book series. I don't think it's hard to say, but I know it will be hard on the kid.
Oscar - Bad person association, but I love the Oz nn.
Roy - Started loving it after IT Crowd, but it just isn't something I'd use.
Thor - pretty obvious.
Thomas - a bit boring for me to actually use, but I do really like Thom as a nn.
Xander - I don't feel right using as a full name, and I'm not a fan of the full Alexander
Wade - very country, like Clay or Beau. This one may make a middle name spot someday, depending.

Juniper, Antigone, Aikaterine, Ophelia, Arabella, and Harper are the only names I can think of... At this very moment lol :P but, that's just this very moment :)

Most of my guilty pleasures are names I'd love to use but are a bit too out there, teasing potential and whatnot. Haha, not brave enough to use! Or just too weird... <3 most aren't very normal like haha!

Been just over a year since last post on this... might as well update as it has defiinitely changed some. I've deleted some that I'm over and bolded the new additions. I'll italicize if they moved from GP to real list.


GP's:

Astor - Begins with a$$
Astrid - same ^
Antigone - Oedipus complex, anyone?
Allegra - stupid Allergy meds!
Circe - obviously would get mixed up with circle... but such a pretty sound.
Cosima - love it. Cosima Plum, Cosima Violet are faves, but I don't think I have the guts to use it.
Jezebel - obvious, but it is still the "bel(le)" name I like the most
Juniper - love June as a nn, but it does not go with any other name I like
Kaede - Again, I'm not Japanese! They have so many nice names. :'(
Lirael - From a Garth Nix book. I won't use it because it's made up.
Maren - Just don't quite like it enough to use
Margo - Margot makes me think of maggots. On the fence for Margo, may end up a middle name.
Mischa - Love love love love love this, but it is too much of a boy name and I'd only use it on a girl.
Nell(ie) - I love it but it makes me think of horses too much. Whoa Nellie! Still could be Penelope nn, though.
Nimue - Merlin!!!
Plum - too fruity
Pomeline - don't quite like it enough. Back-burner name.
Saffron - Saffy is an adorable nn... but it's too out there for me. I may give in and use it as a mn, but that kind of gets rid of the nn.
Sora - so pretty, but it doesn't fit and I don't like it quite enough to use it anyway.
Romilly - Romy is lovely, but I can't see myself using this.
Tesla - I have problems... I like Tessa ok, but Tesla sounds so pretty. Haha.

Asher - I like it, but somehow not for me? Just doesn't fit with the rest of my names.
Barnaby - not brave enough, not even for a middle name
Cassidy - like more than Caspian, and more usable imo, though I worry it's too girly
Clay - SoA... I get too many of my names from TV shows...
Dante - Too much Inferno for me to use
Edwin - can't stand Ed/Eddy nn. But can use in the middle! Yay
Emrys - Another name for Merlin. I fell in love with it after loving the BBC series.
Jericho - No idea why this appeals to me, it just does.
Percieval - think it would be a cool middle, but still too out there
Ptolemy - love love love it... this one I got from one of my favorite book series. I don't think it's hard to say, but I know it will be hard on the kid.
Salem - yes, I definitely have problems....
Thomas - a bit boring for me to actually use, but I do really like Thom as a nn.
Wade - very country, like Clay or Beau. This one may make a middle name spot someday, depending. Yep, on middle name list now
