[Opinions] influencer baby names
If you were one of those rich influencers who give their kids trendy and outlandishly aesthetic names, like those ones who names their kids Lockett and Poetry, or Zealand, Blue and Sunday, what would you name your hypothetical kids?

Like Higuma, I have actually thought about this quite a bit.
I think I would hands down go with Foxglove and Snowdrop, regardless of gender. I would never have such bravery in real life.As a second idea: I think something super pretentious like Brontë & Austen would be excellent as well.

I think about this question a lot actually xDFor a girl- Sowilo; it's the sun rune and I love that energy for my child. For a boy- Light; similar to Sowilo it has good energy and sound.Other ideas:
Zen
Cloud
Rook
Talon
Thistle
Gannet
Howl
Zephyr
Mint
Topaz
Clary
Rooney
Fate
Jubilee
Haze
Waverly
Neptune
Icarus
Velvet
What a fun question!Masculine:Dior, Corvin, Harper, Arrow, Cereus, Maddox, Aventurine, Ashby, Harlem, Jett, Peregrine, Crimson, Windsor, Seraphim, Dresden, Tallis, Cartier, Leviticus, Talbot, Navarone,Feminine:Coriander, Sequoia, November, Azure, Katrielle, Ithaca, Velvet, Cayenne, Solaris, Reverie, Matisse, Elysium, Saffron, Holland, Juneau, Cashmere, January, Ivah, Venetia, Tesla.
I knew a boy named Zealand. It suited him very well. Sunday is actually nice too!
I've always liked the names December and Raine. Also Wednesday.
These names are really a lot of fun to play with.I might use:Kismet
Chalice
Reverie
Sparrow
RunaI went through a massive "artist surname" phase in my very early 20s that would work great here:Haring
O'Keefe
Kahlo
Cezanne
Truitt
Carrington
Rossetti
Goya
Millais
SandysI also like very Catholic names that are so obscure they become hip:Bosco
Goretti
Cloud
Zelie
Kolbe
Quitterie
Malo
Rosary
EcclesiaLast but not least, I've often been enamored with the idea of naming children after perfumes, because that's superbly tacky and there's a perfume that shares MY name, and I'm all about tradition. But I haven't come across any perfumes that would do the trick, other than Shalimar. If anyone has any ideas, I'd love to hear them.
Perfume-wise, maybe these?DeMarly
Euphoria
Lattafa
Viktor Rolf
Ari
Rebelle
Fancy
Siren
Ruby Rush
Reb'L Fleur (probably the tackiest one here)
Ohh, Marly or DeMarly would be amazing, good one!Reb'L Fleur is truly magnificent. Maybe I would turn it into Rebelle Fleur. Because I'm classy like that.
Female:Serendipity; Sundae; Lavender-RoseCinderella; Marina; ThornCrystal; Eclipsa; WitchazelKirrin; Lorielle; Luna RoseMisty River; ValentineWednesday; Winter
Male:Bramble; Lancelot; AnubisAquarius; Abacus; CanyonComet; Harvest; HeliodoreQuince; Barley---If I had a boy and a girl: Thorn and BrambleIf I had two girls: Witch Hazel and Poison IvyIf I had two boys: Lancelot and Robin Hood lmfao
I misread Bramble as "Rambler" and thought "wow that's actually really cute". Like couldn't you just see an influencer kid named Rambler?
I can actually, and it will be better than most lol

If I had absolutely NO shame whatsoever and was tacky as heck, which is the name of the game in influencerdom, I'd probably name my son something like Rolex, or a daughter Prada. Might net an extra buck every time their name is mentioned.
But I'd have to practically sell my soul to the corporate shrine and I would never do that, especially at children's expense.In all seriousness though, I'd probably go with Tiara or Bliss for a girl, and Beau or Stone for a boy.

Ukrayina / Ukraina / Ukraine. I love my country :) I also love Zhytomyr as name but it is city now. I mentioned in polls before, Liberation. Zvilnennya in Ukrainian.
Personally, I would go with Sunday River and Lake Louise after the ski resorts, because I feel like that's what a rich influencer would do. Plus, Sunday, River and Lake are already trendy.other ones:
Victorius, Oleander, Azure, July, Jupiter, Thor, Victory, ArcangeloHalo, Reverie, Story, Blossom, Spring, Holland, Azula, Copelyn, Ever, Rainy, Prairie, Sephora, Starlie, Arizona, Violin

Oh gosh I have endless ideas for this prompt. Tbh I enjoy this name style and think it's just fine to name your kids like this.English, boys w/ word names: Castle, Dolphin, Mercury, WaveEnglish, girls w/ word names: Lupine, Laysan, Silver, EpiphanySpanish, boys: Delfín, Amador, Serafín, RomeroSpanish, girls: Almendra, Maracuyá, Pluma, Lirio, Colibrí, PiedraFrench, 1 boy/3 girls: Ange, Louve, Opale, PenséeEnglish, aggressively classical, boys: Peleg, Timoleon, GeronimoENglish, aggressively classical, girls: Tomyris, Callirhoë, TheklaEnglish, pretentious/outré, 2 boys, 2 girls: Jellico, Melville, Dymphna, BixEnglish, boy/girl w/ nicknames: Independence, Mountain ("Indie & Monty or Rocky")Most unexpected, boy/girl: Melquíades, Zamzam
Someone else who likes Callirhoë! I think it's beautiful.
I'd name them what I'd like to name any future children I may have. Katharine, Elizabeth, Anthony, Matthias, etc....seeing these names, it makes me very glad that I follow basically no influencers.
Sunrise. I love the name and I am so surprised it has only been given to 6 babies since 1950! I wish it would be common. I would give that to a girl. For a boy I may choose a city name or a country name.
