Opinions?

Can I ask your opinions on two names? I'm someone who always wanted normal names for my kids, but I'm stuck on two names right now that are a bit out of the norm.

Last name is Whittaker.

For a boy: Jareth

For a girl: Tuesday

Jareth was jokingly suggested by a friend, but when I saw it written out, I liked it, and so did my husband. I KNOW it's the name of David Bowie's character in Labyrinth. But, it looked close enough to Jared that I thought we might get away with it.

Tuesday is a name that my husband ALWAYS wanted for a baby girl. He didn't use it for his first daughter, and initially I was against it because I just assumed she'd be teased, but now, I'm actually really starting to like it.

So, thoughts, please. I'd like to know if I'm being totally nuts and unfair to my future child. (We find out in 4 weeks if it's a boy or girl).

My little cousin is actually named Tuesday. She's a twin and her twin's name is Taylor. I think the name is unique yet classy. Whenever I say my cousin's name I get funny looks, but if paired with a good middle name it's nice.

That is awesome!

And, I love the name Taylor. I'd forgotten about that one.

Thanks! :)
