[Opinions] Re: 5 Weirdest Names You Like?
Hmmm... Looking at what other people chose, I guess I don't really like too many "weird" names. But I hope it's ok I share my guilty pleasures.1. Maple - I love this name. I'm Canadian and a fan of the Toronto Maple Leafs. It has a similar sound to Mabel, which makes it sound like a name. It gives off similar vibes as other Victorian nature names. I don't think I'm brave enough to use it. Maybe as a middle name!2. Minerva - I don't know why, but I really like this name. Athena does nothing for me, but Minerva sounds cool. I don't think I'm brave enough to use it.3. Paisley - I think this is my ultimate guilty pleasure. I really like this name, but it sticks out like a sore thumb on my list. I'd never use it because it sounds SO out of place amongst my other favourites. But I genuinely like this name.4. Nicodemus - I loved the story Rats of NIMH as a child. I think this is why I also have a soft spot for Justin. Of course, a kid might not be thrilled that they were named after a rat.5. Peregrine - I love its literary, historical, and nature connections. Plus, the nn Perry is too cute. But it is a touch offbeat for me.
