If you are thinking of naming your October baby with an edgy name inspired by the month of Halloween, here are three favorite baby boy  names that evoke Halloween images... Freddy brings to mind the gruesome villain from Nightmare on Elm Street. Jason was the hockey mask-sporting slasher from the Friday the 13th flicks. And, of course,Michael, was the mass murderer in the Halloween series -- although apparently his ghastly deeds weren't quite horrific enough to scare folks away from the name: It's currently the third most popular name for boys in the U.S., and had consistently ranked in the top two for the five decades prior. One of my grandsons is named Michael and I can count dozens of Michaels among my friends. Nobody who has every seen a horror film, could forget Rosemary's Baby or Carrie from the Steven King book and movie of the same name.

So if you want to be daring this Halloween and give your baby girl a season inspired name, here is a list of some other popular girl's names that have a spooky side to them.

  • Blair: The Blair Witch Project
  • Regan: The Exorcist
  • Buffy: Buffy the Vampire Slayer
  • Elvira: The famous "Mistress of the Dark"
  • Wednesday: The Addams Family
  • Sookie: True Blood character
  • Angelique: Dark Shadows
  • Sidney: Scream
  • Jules: The Cabin in the Woods
