Furor - To paraphrase Google: a public outbreak of excitement/craze
Good afternoon, Kindergothlings.
I am lying here watching Ask A Mortician and something weird has flipped in my brain.
A new baby has entered our lives. Mi Madre has started looking after my Aunt’s newborn. When I look at him I honestly want to cry. He is the cutest thing. Like, I’ve always liked babies, but seeing this baby physically hurts my soul xD
I know that sounds crazy, but I guess this is just like a quarter-life crisis when I realize babies are cute.
So, in my down time today while re-dying my hair, I was pinteresting, fueling my “baby fever” and compiling a small list of baby names that interest me:
- Matilda - brave in war, swedish..But, isn’t this the name of a horror movie. Gotta put a pin in that one to come back to xD
- Margo, Greta - pearl. I like both of these versions of Margaret. They are super cute and actually moving to the top of my list.
- Evelina - light and life which reminds me of the lovely and talented Avelina De Moray.
- Magnus - “great” I don’t have many masculine name ideas, I need to look into more of those.
- Astrid - beautiful goddess
- Ash...not at all inspired by Ashley Purdy, noooo. But yeah, I love the name.
- Salem. The motherland, so to speak. I don’t know what I’d pair this with, but I like it.
- Sparrow
- Lorelai - Might be a GG fan, #UngothConfessions. Also, it sounds kind of old-fashioned which is cute.
- Winter - Cute. Since the name Summer is completely out of the question. Not only completely ungoth but also reminding me of someone that I went to school with and NEVER got along with. Ew.
- Lennon - Not for John Lennon at all, but for a really good friend I had as a kid. She just kind of disappeared and thinking of the name makes me want to look her up after all these years.
- Willow - Not only do I like this name, but it is also the name of Ronnie Radke’s daughter.
- Blair - I’m still on the fence about this one, only because I wouldn’t know what to pair it with.
- Lydia meaning “seller of purple dye,” Saint Lydia of Thyatira. Of course, it also comes from the goth icon Winona Ryder’s portrayal of Lydia Deetz in the 1988 film Beetlejuice.
- Raven. Raven, Raven, Raven...What teenage Goth did not have this name scrawled across notebooks,etc. As of late, it feels so overdone in the alternative and norm cultures alike--not that it isn’t a really cute name though.
*BONUS* Lastly, here's a unique name, I think, that I’ve been rolling around in my head for about three years (Since I started watching “Supernatural”) Castielle Grace - and of course, call her Cas - and NEVER cassie. Ew.
So there ya go guys. Do any of these interest you, and do you have any alternative baby names that inspire you? Drop a comment below, or over at my Insta @Miz_Motionless.
