Re: What is your guilty pleasure name? (nt)
in reply to a message by jonesilove
Funny, I was just thinking about mine today!
Masculine
Boone
Franco (I love this name, but then there's the dictator..)
Clyde & Colt (too horsey?)
Dustin
Lancaster
Godfrey
Harold (but I hate the nickname Harry)
Rowdy
Herbert "Herb"
Feminine
Clark (I don't know why, but as long as I can remember I've loved it as a girls name)
Godlove & Hopestill & Loveday (I'm not religious, but I love Puritan names)
Pomeline (it reminds me of apples)
Clancy (I used to love Skippy the Kangaroo when I was little. In the serie her real name is Clarissa but everyone calls her Clancy)
Heraclea / Cléa (clay-a, I think her name will be mispronounced)
Clodagh
Colbie
Elm & Pine (Because I love the trees)
Nevah (haven spelled backwards)
Cricket

Was Loveday used by the Puritans? It's on my list, too, but I've always thought of it as strictly a medieval name. Regardless, I love the idea of a child born on a day of truce named for the peace.
I also like Heraclea from your list.
Clark as a feminine name is very, very Southern US (where girls are often given family surnames as first names).
