Obscure or Archaic Words as Names - General Name Discussion

July 2024 · 1 minute read

I find myself drawn to word names, but not common word names like [name_f]Grace[/name_f] or [name_f]Willow[/name_f]. I’m more interested in using words that are very rarely used in speech as names. Some examples:
Sojourn- a visit; I often see this word used in poetry, but rarely in regular conversation
[name_f]Reverie[/name_f]- means “daydream.” Like Sojourn, I often see this word in poetry.
Morrow- archaic word for tomorrow
Borealis- a word meaning “[name_u]North[/name_u],” ultimately derived from the Greek god of the north wind
Paean- a song of praise, joy, or triumph
[name_f]Poesy[/name_f]- an archaic word for poetry
[name_f]Sonata[/name_f]- a type of song written for one or two instruments

Does anyone have any ideas for words like these that may work as names?
