I've started to like Raven more and more recently. I really like the sound and imagery, so she's popping up in a few places as a middle. I agree with the long black hair, magic feel, I like it!

I like Raven - but not in a pseudo-goth, trying-to-be-uncool kind of way.
I like it through a character on the TV show The 100 where it belongs to a girl who's loyal and smart and resilient.

It recently made my long list but after repeating it aloud I realised how much I enjoy the sound and it's now into my Top Ten.

I think it's very much a "emo teen in the 1990's" kind of name. Very dated now, and also very much a screen handle type name too.

I must be the odd one out here because I don't care for it. I don't detest it nearly as much as Haven but still. Raven to me sounds more like a character or stage name. It's a name I would never be able to take much serious. I can easily envision the name belonging to a girl with black hair and into witchcraft as well.
I know my cousin Andrea loves it and if she would of had a girl instead of a boy, she said she would of named her "Zuri Raven" (personally not a fan of either of those names)

I like Robin but love to see it on males more.

I love Raven. Yeah I guess I do think of a person with Dark hair but I don't think it would really matter. Like naming someone Summer who didn't have blonde hair...

It's a cool name I think

It's a guilty pleasure to me. I think it sounds pretty but also goth and creepy.

I've really been liking Raven recently. First thing that comes to mind is Raven from Teen Titans.
