Re: Opinions on gothic names pls

They're all bad, but Ghostina especially so. It's cartoonish, like Casper the Friendly Ghost's girlfriend, if he'd had a girlfriend way back in the sixties when he had his own cartoon show.
Lilith is probably the most doable, but just because every moody, black-lipstick-wearing girl in the nineties who didn't call herself Raven wanted to be Lilith.
Any of them are all right for an Internet handle or cosplay or someting, but not for legally changing your name to. Ten years down the road you'll be embarrassed.
And replacing i's with y's isn't goth; it's cheesy.
Before you criticize a man, walk a mile in his shoes. That way, when you criticize him, you're a mile away and you have his shoes!
