What are your guilty pleasure names? You know, the names you'd never name a child, but adore anyways?

 

I've always loved the name Jane, having loved Jane Eyre, but I would simply never name my child that. She'd most likely have "Plain Jane" jokes cracked at her, or she'd be asked where Tarzan is. 

Violet. Too colorful for me, but gorgeous. If it werent connotated to a color, I would use it in a heartbeat. And if it weren't too out there, I'd spell it Violette.

There's also Juliet. I would definately use it as a middle name. It's so totally beautiful, even though it reminds me of Romeo and Juliet, which I dont tend to like. But the name seems so strong, yet delicate, and absolutely perfect.

As for boys, I love C's. Cain and Cael are two names that have always that seemed so nice. They are soft and sweet, yet sturdy and strong. However, Cain is though of as Cane, and Cael would be like the vegetable.

Speaking of guilty pleasure literary names, I always thought Holden was a really cool name for a boy, but I don't know if I'd ever actually use it.
