Re: What English words do you think would make good names, but aren't currently?
Words that sound nice or seem like they have great associations? I have words for both.
Riot - sounds awesome, but gives the impression of violence.
Core - sounds like its short for something, like Corey, Corrine, Cora, etc.
Lore - same here. Lorraine, Laurence, Lorene, etc.
Nickel - because of its similarity to Nicholas.
Mistletoe - there are already so many plants as names, but Mistletoe might be too associated with Christmas and kissing.
Pale - like the bucket, not the skin tone - but there are plenty of names that mean "white", "black", "bleached", etc.
Linen - it reminds me of soft fabric. It could be fragile and pretty like... Fawn or Doe?
Crash - I just like the sound of it, I have no idea why. CRASH!
Mint - its an important plant, a pretty color and it could be short for Araminta.
Bold - like the name Brave or Bravery.
Boulder - sounding strong like Stone or Rocky.
Sorrow - It has a nice sound despite literally meaning sadness.
Tomorrow - it has a hopeful ring to it.
Marrow - The sound is nice but I don't want to think about bone juices...https://youtube.com/@MarioDrama632 or

Tomorrow would be an amazing name!
Riot was used by Rihanna (singer) for her son.Core or Kore is actually a name! It is another name for Cora or Persephone in the mythos of Demeter.
The bucket is spelt ‘pail’.
Ooh yes, I like Mint/Minty!
