Sounds like a good idea, so long as no one goes around wearing leopard print underwear outside their pants.

I like this idea, Demona. it fits me and my friends quite well, actually.
I do like the focus and the rough and gritty aspect, like a werewolf, rather than the vamp-like isolation and sadness. Especially concerning the jock thing, because it would be cool to see the average jock/preppy style clothing utilized in a dark manner. It's not something you see every day.
You want help coming up with a name?
I like Grawth. Gritty, growly, goth.

what are you talking about dude? food? and blasphemy? i am such a confused being.

           Hang on people, goths are not ALL about sadness and sorrow, around the world there are those depressed goths or not, it's possibly to be a cheerful goth YES I'm serious there is such a thing as a happy goth, they stick out like a sore thumb but they exist.  But it's mainly based on darkness and nocturne interest... and sometimes death, emos are just... emotional teens who can't deal with their feelings maturely. Stereotypes have been a big argument ever since they've emerged from the '80 or whatever, but one doesn't see that cutting themselves make them goth or emo, nor wearing black because they already jump to the conclusion "Oh s/he's goth" or "Look it's an emo". It is something you're naturally are, not something you just decide to be overnight. Besides Goth is all together a lifestyle, it came WAY before this "emo" movement appeared and my theory is that this "emo" group is a little tiny bit of goth modified to fit the teens taste.

            All in all, goth and emo is very different apart because goth is entirely a subculture/lifestyle. Emo is a movement for teens which doesn't exactly have a lifestyle and after time they actually grow out of it, and I still didn't mention that what was supposed to be a style adopted by friendless/anti-social/angst outcasts teens had now become mainstream. Goths NEVER is mainstream.

yeah i know all about the "perky goths" and all that and i also realise the difference between goth and emo and even punk. its just that most goths tend to be depressed and the goths that are described as angry are usually better described as punk. but anyway yeah i think now im probably just going to draw inspiration from wherever it comes like a bruce lee philosophy.
