Are any of my GP names usable? Empty Are any of my GP names usable?

Post by NinjaRobot Tue Mar 26, 2013 10:36 am

I'm considering moving some of my GP names to my normal list, so I'm wondering which (if any) of these names you would consider usable for someone living in Australia. I'm pretty sure most of you don't live in Australia, but I guess we're similar to most other English-speaking countries names-wise - and there are a lot of classic names, not a great deal of 'tryndee' names, a fair few unisex names, not many gender-swapped names, and a lot of Scottish names.

Aeriana
Andromeda
Astrid
Elora
Elowen
Guinevere
Inara
Juno
Luna
Melora
Millicent
Morgana
Morrigan
Nimue

Atticus
Aubrey
Avery
Dashiell
Griffin
Ianto
Lenner
Misha
Mortimer
Robin
Wesley
West

Some of them are already borderline though - I'm pretty sure I'll move Astrid, and I've had Morgana on both lists for a while now (due to uncertainty). So yeah, I'm just wondering what everyone else things. Smile

Well, I'd say Ireland is even more backward than Australia name-wise, so I'd say

Aeriana
Astrid
Elora
Inara
Luna
Melora
Morrigan
Avery
Dashiell
Griffin
Ianto
Robin
Wesley
West

would be usable Smile

I'll tell you which I find usable, but keep in mind that I view almost anything as "usable" Wink

Aeriana << Usable
Andromeda << Usable!
Astrid << This one I'm not sure. It's not usable in my area I don't think, but it might be in yours so I don't know. I'm going to say "unusable" but it's very borderline.
Elora << Usable! Very Happy
Elowen << Usable
Guinevere << Usable
Inara << Usable
Juno << Usable
Luna << Usable Very Happy
Melora << Usable
Millicent << This is a name that doesn't seem to be coming back even with the old fashioned trend, but I suppose it's usable.
Morgana << I have this one on my GP list because I don't like Morgan (and I wouldn't want her to be nicknamed Morgan No ) but overall I'd say it's usable Smile
Morrigan << I like it, but it kind of sounds like "more again" so I'm going to say unusable for this one.
Nimue << Unusable (though I love it)

Atticus << Usable
Aubrey << I'm not sure on this one. Aubrey is predominantly feminine here, but I wouldn't be shocked to hear it on a boy or anything. Hmm, I'm going to say unusable, but this one's borderline too.
Avery << I've never met a boy named Avery, and I can't see it on a boy very well, so for me it's unusable as a boys name. That's just me though.
Dashiell << Usable
Griffin << Usable Very Happy
Ianto << Usable
Lenner << Usable Smile
Misha << I think it's usable Smile
Mortimer << Usable
Robin << This one I'm still iffy on even though it's on my boys usable list. I'll say usable, but it's borderline.
Wesley << Usable
West << Usable

I think a lot of them are completely usable!

Aeriana
Astrid
Elora
Guinevere
Juno
Luna
Morgana

Atticus
Dashiell
Griffin
Robin
Wesley
West

I see Aubrey and Avery as girls' names, but that might just be me. Andromeda might work with a nickname. Mortimer and Morrigan are too out there. Mortimer sounds like something you would read in a novel, not hear on a little boy.

I hope that helps Smile
