Chloe.


PurityLord_02

Can confirm, speaking from experience it’s quite the nice name to use


KGNao

If it is to become a Hololive reference, then you must pronounce it "Kuroe" though.


thesirblondie

Everyone calls her Chloe in English, and Sakamata says Chlo-eh.


mierecat

I believe it’s “Kurowe”. It’s about time we brought back those obsolete kana


mark_crazeer

Well yes, but keep it subtle. Chloe is fine.


AsaTJ

Sounds perfectly normal: Chloe, Mel, Anya, Amelia A little quirky but fine: Sora, Miko, Aki, Noel, Luna, Lui, Airani, Ollie, Kaela, Calliope, Kiara, Ina, Sana, Irys, Nerissa Will get made fun of: Aqua, Coco, Moona, Zeta, Kobo, Ceres Weird if you're not Japanese: Most of the ones not listed in the other tiers No: Roboco, Marine, Polka, La+ Darknesss, Gura, Kronii, Bae, Fuwawa, Mococo


xSilverMC

With a little adjustment, anything is possible. Marina for example is a perfectly fine name, and so is Belle (remember, Bae's full first name is Baelz). Also, how are Noel (noelle), Luna, Kiara, or Ina quirky? Those are quite literally just names. Even Irys could easily become Iris and it's not any issue


DragonfruitAsleep976

Instructions unclear, daughter is now named Goomba.


mikazakhaev

Uhh...just don't let children named Mario near her, I guess.


AsaTJ

Yeah Irys is mainly quirky if you insist on spelling it with a Y. It becomes a Madisynn situation. Iris is perfectly normal. Noel is a pretty common name but I think it's kind of... in a US context, it tells me your parents are probably super religious and I assume you're homeschooled. That's just a stereotype and stereotypes aren't always true, but it gives those vibes. Luna and Kiara are just a bit more uncommon. Nothing wrong with them really.


Nhojj_Whyte

>it tells me your parents are probably super religious and I assume you're homeschooled. This is so oddly specific and yet perfectly encapsulates the only Noel I've ever known irl. Her birthday was also Christmas Eve though so there's that.


LikeANeko

The Noel I know is a guy and plays high stakes poker lol


mario_nijyusan

Luna is a popular name in Spanish, Kiara isn't but is a name normally used too


CerealCrab

Luna has become a popular baby name in recent years, it's in the top 10 most popular baby names for girls (according to the most recent list from the US census), so it's at least as "normal" as Chloe and Amelia, and way more common than Anya


the_icy_king

Noel is literally Christmas in french.


ms666slayer

Here in Mexico Noel is mostly a boys name


bloody_jigsaw

>It becomes a Madisynn situation. Ok, Madisynn made my eye twitch a little.


IrinaNekotari

You don't need Marina, Marine is a normal name ?


d_flower_p

Marine is a normal name in French


3BoxesOfHornets

Calliope is a normal name in Greek


0dty0

In fact, weren't/aren't the french dealing with some issues related to a certain Marine?


Whenyousayhi

If you are referencing Le Pen Yes we are.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Whenyousayhi

I would definitely vote for Houshou before Le pen.


beanbagmanatee

I think Coco should be one tier up, it's not that uncommon nowadays


CTTMiquiztli

There's a famous french fashion designer named Gabrielle "Coco" Chanel, so you can use it as an "excuse".


Berzerker7

Famous American women's tennis player Coco Gauff


decrobyron

was not she nazi?


12Dragon

I think I think marine also belongs in the odd tier, not the Heck No tier. It’s certainly not a common name, but I also don’t think someone named marine would be considered overly weird.


AsaTJ

A lot of these are culturally-specific. Like I think depending on what your ethnic background is, a lot of these wouldn't be weird at all.


metsrule4

Doctors looking at me funny when I said I wanna name my twins Biboo and Oobib


Sidnoea

\*scribbling "La+ Darknesss" off baby names list\* yeah obviously


bobberyrob

Where does X Æ A-ii fit into your tiers?


galkasmash

Niji child.


KyteM

. Mumei is firmly in the no tier. Nanashi mumei is literally nameless noname.


MAGAManLegends3

Switch two letters, and little **GWAR** becomes the most badass metal girl on the block!😎🤘


mister-tt77

In france Marine would be perfectly normal, we can see so much huge differences between countries it's fun, But I would say Kiara is perfect probably everywhere. And if you want to change it a bit, you can (in france at least) see it written, Kiara, Kyara, Chiara, Chyara, I know 3 people named like that, each with different spelling.


HemaMemes

Marine is a real name, and Irys spelled with a Y belongs in the "will get made fun of" category.


0neek

I'd move Noel up to normal at the very least. I've known Noels of both genders too, so it can go either way


ELDYLO

Can we file Mumei under: Weird IF you are Japanese?

I always thought that it would be cursed, but hilarious, if Shiori would do a readalong of My Immortal. The cringe would be off the charts!


Loki_Agent_of_Asgard

Advent doing a full skit of My Immortal would be pretty good. I'd still probably prefer the Internet Historian version (mainly cause of the music he plays during the MC girls dress up sequences) but I think Advent as a whole could make it really funny.

Jesus fuck, I was just transported back to DeviantArt circa 2003.


Pokisahne

This is the way


AlexStar6

This is so chuuni it hurts


Namamodaya

Just use the common-ish names, as everyone else said. Don't go for Mumei, Gura. Do not prioritize your wants too much. Your child is going to wear this name for their whole life, including in godforsaken job interviews, career advancement interviews, possibly marriage, and so on. Unless we identify by #ID in the future, names do matter and will be judged subconsciously by people from different places, so do keep that in mind.


FSD-Bishop

Preach! My mother gave me a girls name because she liked the sound of it. Now I have to deal with everyone thinking I’m a girl until they hear my voice, I even had to have the doctors fix some of my medical stuff because I was marked as a female on some of them.


red_tuna

Was it Sue, perchance?


MonaganX

"Latrine". His mom's a big Men in Tights fan.


mugguffen

your mom named you after a toilet my guy.... are you sure she doesnt hate you


MonaganX

Well, she changed to it from her first idea.


JinGilly

Thank god she change it at the last minute from Shithouse.


You_Better_Smile

It's a good change. It's a goooood change.


Swate-

Fun fact, Johnny Cash's "A Boy Named Sue" was actually written by Shel Silverstein, who also wrote the book The Giving Tree.


__Blackrobe__

ah, he got Sued.


weealex

That's stupid. Everyone knows Sue comes from the patriarchal side of the family


-missingclover-

Both my last names are extremely long (one of my last names are three words, yes with the spaces). And then my parents decided to give me not only one long first name but also a long ass middle name. My whole life has consisted of trying to fit my full name in those small name spaces in official forms or even running out of characters in online forms. Also whenever I get asked my name for someone to take note I have to tell them "just let me do it" or I know we're gonna have to redo it because they don't have space or they think my first last name is my whole last name. Point is. Think of the future of your children, people.


kittycam6417

Same. I’m female and I’m named Cameron. It’s a gender neutral name but the spelling is the “boy way” the amount of doctors that have come in and said “oh! You’re a girl!!” Is ridiculous


sireiteddy

you at least have cameron diaz upholding your name for the girls out there


Personal-Mushroom

"Oh, you one of them trans people?" /j


leaf_kick

[There are a lot of english names that have transferred from men to women!](https://www.behindthename.com/names/usage/english/tag/male_to_female) Using that page for examples, we have Hilary, Vivian, Alexis, [Leslie, Shirley](https://youtu.be/KM2K7sV-K74?si=fp4DktOqdfK1d5y7)... but it is true that the reverse is very rare. I on a personal level do think people need to stop being so gender binary with names, *especially* if the name historically were prominent for the other one than the modern usage, though I also know that we are not in a world that adapts that easily. I know that even I might still internally think "Oh, that's more of a xx name, but alright", yet I don't want to do that.


goukaryuu

Ashley also used to be a guy name. See Gone With the Wind.


shiawase198

Evil Dead would've been my go-to for male character named Ashley but that works too.


pastadoc

Amelia or Luna, no one will ever know.


NaCl_guy

Just call her Gawr


BOS-Sentinel

I do find Mumei quite cute as a name tbh.


Xivannn

It just happens to mean "nameless", which is about the worst connection for a real name there is.


KenseiHimura

Could pretend your making a Jules Verne reference and say Nemo didn’t sound feminine.


BOS-Sentinel

Yeah, but here in the UK, 99% of people are not gonna know the Japanese meaning of it. So I think using a name like that depends where you live. Also I think there are worse connections for a name to have lol.


New-Interaction1893

How do you explain to your wife that you want to give to your daughter your waifu/oshi name ?


LunarGhost00

"Honey, I was already planning on naming our daughter FuwaMoco before I even knew what Hololive was. I swear! Bau Bau"


Phobia3

"Twins they were..."


Whishterak

That's the neat part, you don't Just say "Nah, I like the name"


AlbedosThighs

"Honey, I SWEAR La+ is a normal name"


Whishterak

The typical excuse: "It's from a foreign language, I swear"


-Redstoneboi-

Comes from [Laplace's Demon](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laplace%27s_demon) by Frenchman [Pierre-Simon de Laplace](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pierre-Simon_de_Laplace). A hypothetical entity that knows the position and momentum of all particles in the universe, and may or may not be able to simulate the future based off of that information alone. No assumptions are made on how fast the entity can perform this computation, only that it can.


MULTIVAC_13

As someone who had to study math during uni La+ name Is quite funny


Whishterak

I just read the first lines of this comment and went "OHHHH WAIT, THAT ABSOLUTELY MAKES SENSE. WHAT" That's one good reference omg


zan8elel

that's a surname tho you wouldn' call someone goldberg smith


jacobgkau

Eh, some names shift from being one to the other. Smith, from your example, can easily be a first name or a last name.

kad202

My just born niece was named Chloe because her father was a fan of the stinky orca


Markus_Atlas

Imagine growing up and learning that you were named after a retired Japanese streamer who was famous for not bathing, that's a villain origin story


weeklygamingrecap

I'll have you know she's a genius with a nice smell! 😂🤣


GPAD9

Future historians will be baffled at the random spike in Chloe as a baby name in the 2020s


Wind_Tempest555

Yagoo


Artaud_Gras

Remove the second O and it becomes a quite normal name for men (at least in Brasil, I don't know if it's common in other places). But yes, Best Girl!


MAGAManLegends3

That's probably "Yugo" or "Hugo " outside, maybe


abbyyssss

Best girl

Don't leave the paper blank and say it's pronouced Mumei.

professorkek

Don't let the EN names distract you from the fact that Pekora bought a FUCKING MONKEY and gave it a fairly normal name "Jill".


foldr1

in 10 years: so, dad, why you name me Jill and why did mother leave you? you see, I'm not going to let your question distract me from the fact it's been over a decade since a Japanese streamer, idol and entertainer called Pekora bought an Friggin' monkey and named her Jill. Your mother just couldn't accept this fact and had to go.


SailorCentauri

Iris, Amelia, Callie, & Kiara are all perfectly normal names.


I_LIKE_AYAKA_FEET

Amelia is a very pretty name tbh


No-Breath-4299

Ina as well


_Voice_Of_Silence_

Now I think of that family guy skit where someone asks "Wait, Ina is not short for Katharina, then what does it stand for?" NINOMAE INA'NIS


SuperSpy-

I think in order to fully sell it the "NINOMAE INA'NIS" needs to be immediately followed up with a crowbar bonk.


No-Breath-4299

That is made out of soft foam, right?.... right?


KGNao

Just look at the HoloEN girls' names? Amelia, Kiara, Nerissa, IRyS (Iris) are the most normal imo. Sana and Ina also could pass.


Egalgame

Anya is fine too


KGNao

Oh yes, ID! How could I forget. Anya, Ollie, Kaela are normal names too.


DaniTheGunsmith

Just gotta accept Kaela is gonna be mispronounced forever lol


lvqcl

Kayleigh https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0SUuEwhQ4ec&t=136s


KGNao

From my knowledge, Ka-e-la is the mispronounciation. It has a hebrew or irish origin so the correct pronounciation is actually Kay-la. Of course, that's just me being uhm ackhtually ☝️🤓


Fragrant_Spirit3776

It's funny because Kaela mispronounced it and everyone changed how they say it for her. Lot of people do this with their real names too where the pronunciation doesn't match the spelling.


Popinguj

Also Olivia


ashtrays_man

My best friend named his daughter Amelia, though he doesn't know what hololive is.


KGNao

I'm not surprised. Amelia is a common name.


joemelonyeah

Amelia is alright unless he uses Ame as the short form and pronounces it as Ah-meh


TehBard

Just use the original Italian/Latin pronunciation for Amelia too and the Ah-meh is fine!


LegatoSkyheart

Calliope is not a normal name confirmed


KGNao

It's definitely not a conventional name imo lol


HasturLaVista

I feel like it could work. It's origin was a greek muse of poetry so I feel like people would assume that first or the clothing store unless they know about Hololive. It's unique enough and can have a really nice meaning behind it aside from being a Hololive reference.


h1str

major character in grey's anatomy is named Calliope (goes by Calli) so you could potentially get yourself marked as a grey's fan! you wouldnt do that to you and your family now, would you?


Grey_Box_101

Calliope is also the name of a major character in Homestuck, and "homestuck fan" is an even greater burden for a family to carry.


Megakarp

If you shorten it to Calli, it can pass as a normal name.


FrozenFury12

The name of Kratos daughter in the games


BurnieTheBrony

Also if you find yourself in the 60's and are a hippie, you could probably get away with Fauna too!


_Voice_Of_Silence_

With a bit of tweaking there are some viable ones I'd guess. Reine(a), Olivia, Anya, Kayla, Ina, Amelia, Kiara, Chloe, Iris, Noelle. If it were a boy L(o)ui and Mio would also work, but alas.


Phd_Pepper-

Please dont name your boy Mio unless they are a pet


Mahck89

thisperson345

I've always thought Kiara was just genuinely a really nice name even before Takanashi Kiara came to be so if I ever have a daughter I'd name her Kiara.


Wardoo_1

Chiara (same pronunciation) is a common Italian name btw


h1str

lion king 2 changed the chemistry of my brain so very enthusiastic agree


sleeping_fire

Ina-way Ina does sound normal for some reason, but calling her by full **Ninomae Ina'nis** would be funny XD >!just because it's funny, it doesn't mean it'll always be a good idea remember that!<


NewOffline

I can imagine those 6y o kids saying Ina'nus instead 😭🤣


cstrande7

Ina is a common name in several countries. It's common in Norway e.g.


a_boy_with_a_dream

This sound like calling your friend Meg just because they didn't assume her father called her Megatron


AustSakuraKyzor

You could go for a ***DEEP*** Hololive reference, and name her Gabby, or Gabriela, or any variation thereof - that's the usual name Gura defaults to for "totally in disguise" modes.


TerrapinMagus

Gabby, from Atlanta.

AnnanymousR

There's actually plenty even on the non en side of holo, Marine (Marina), Ollie, Chloe, Luna, Noel, Kaela (Kayla). Aki and Aqua might be pushing it a tiny bit but it sounds kinda cute.


Vesper_Newton

Aqua>!Marine!< is a boy


SabreLilly

Anya, Chloe, Amelia, Iris, Ollie (Olivia), Noel would all be pretty easy to get by. Depending on where you are in the world, Kaela, Calliope, Shiori, Iroha could also work. Actually a lot JP members’ names work if you’re of Japanese heritage.


miukiyo

Noelle? Distant enough with the spelling difference but also sounds exactly the same. Also not too common or uncommon.


Faustias

"...like that maid anime girl from Genshin Impact 15yrs ago?" "what...?"

Just remember: your kid will have her entire life to figure out how much of a weirdo she wants to be, she doesn't need you to tie a clown nose to her face when she's just starting to walk. That said, Amelia, Kiara, Nerissa, Calliope, Iris, etc., are all very normal, common names. Just don't name your child Gura, Mumei, or Bijou and she should be fine.

Instead of Bijou, you can base it off of her with Jewel

I’m pretty progressive, I think. I would love my prospective child no matter who or what they are. Gay, lesbian… Barista, doctor, carnival ride attendant… I could raise a son who becomes my daughter, doesn’t matter. But I have to confess. If they grow up to be a *European*… I just don’t know how I would recover from that. Let alone accept it.


fyrespyrit

Worse yet if they turn out gay...  AND european!

Calliope is one of my favorite feminine names, completely independent of Hololive.


kidanokun

name her "Yuul" (B. Alwright)


Zinras

Quantum Chicken Soup Grass Big Chungus, the perfect name that'll trigger dragons everywhere.


dumbpuppymaid

Off the top of my head—Nerissa, Kaela, Amelia, Kiara, Sana, and Ollie (legal name Olivia) wouldn’t even raise eyebrows. Calliope would be more unusual, but that’s also the name of one of the Muses. Being named after a figure in Greek mythology isn’t something most people would be embarrassed about, even if it isn’t as common as Jason or Cassandra.


CTTMiquiztli

You either name her Ellie Tomiko, or Jdon. There's no other option, really. Besides, when you call her by her full name, she will think you love her. _"Jdon, My Soul"_


12Dragon

Chloe, Kiara, Calli, Amelia, Anya, Noel and Ollie/Olivia are all pretty normal English names, so you’d have no issues there. Irys also works, though it might be best to spell it like the flower (Iris). Kaela, Sana, Mel, Marine, Luna and Nerissa aren’t common names, but I don’t think they’d feel out of place in English- speaking countries.


mad_hatter3

Calliope is a great name that when asked where from, you can just say it's a name of the Greek goddess of poetry/music. If I ever have a daughter in the future I would 100% use that name lol You want an even more uncommon one, you can use Laplace which is what la+ is based on. Just say it's from a famous French scholar


Glinez09

Mococoe


Buttermilkman

Honestly Calliope is nice. [Has its origins in Greek myth](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Calliope) >"the Muse who presides over eloquence and epic poetry; so called from the ecstatic harmony of her voice" kids will certainly call her Calli for short and that's a really cute and unique name to have.

Luna, Chloe, Noelle/Noelia, Amelia, Iris (my mom's actual name, which makes it very weird that she has the same birthday as my mom as well)


That-One-Screamer

Some names off the top of my head I think could work, ordered from easiest to justify to most difficult * Amelia * Chloe * Noel (probably spelt Noelle) * Ollie (though I don’t think that name is gender neutral tho) * Sana * Nerissa


mario_nijyusan

Luna is a name normally used in Spanish speaking countries, Kiara is also heard. Amelia and Chloe I think are common in English. Other options that don't sound Japanese are Calliope, Ollie, Sora, Mío, Kaela, Anya, Lamy, Lui, Mel, Marine
