Um...I think they're okay. I can't imagine actually naming a child Loki, though. It's so connected to the myth, it seems silly on a real person, not daring.Persephone is not my style, but I think it works better as a real name. You can give her nicknames: Seph, Sephie, Percy. Percy on a girl is more daring to me, in truth, maybe because it's traditionally masculine but doesn't sound as such. I don't know, I might be talking in circles for this one. :PThe most daring names I would consider using in real life? This is a hard question for me to answer, because I wouldn't go "daring" if I actually had a child. If I had kids right this minute, I would name a boy Nathan and a girl Leah. My real life style would be run-of-the-mill and totally functional, not unusual or fancy- I would probably do that with the middle names (Leah Sheridan is the combo I would most likely use). So, I'll say Sheridan for a girl, because I've always inexplicably loved it, and Callahan for a boy. Sherry/Dany, Cal, those would be fun to play with.

I knew a Sheridan tooI've always like Sheridan for a girl mainly because my eye doctor when I was growing up had a pretty and sweet daughter named Sheridan who also worked at his office. She's probably in her early 30's now. Her brother's name was Nicholas. Doc himself was named Blaine! :)
