Gothic babies naming tradition are based on the culture that combines romanticism with horror. Gothic baby names are taken from literature, fashion, music, and architecture. These names are little shadowy and a lot mysterious, they have a dark and daring touch such as the names Damien and Ophelia. In contrary to what most of the people think, Gothic names are not outlandish or weird, in fact some Gothic names are extremely wearable.
