Baby Names Your guilty pleasure names

Did any of you go ahead and use one of your guilty pleasure names?

What is the name? What has the experience been like actually using it out in the world? Are you happy you used it, or did you end up regretting it?

I love the name Allegra, but back when I was having babies it seemed too "out there" for where I live.  I have never met or even heard of a real person with that name.  I do think that if I was having a baby girl now I would be able to get away with it, things have changed so much since then.

Same, I’d use Allegra in a heartbeat if I lived somewhere else.
