O is for Owen's Defense
Though there's also Omega Gambit (1.d4 Nf6 2. e5) but that's a variation of the Indian defense. Other than that there's not many O, openings. btw you guys missed G and also used M twice...
P is for Panteldakis Countergambit

H is for Halloween Gambit.
It seems I missed G. @EdouardIII, thank you for filling in
Name a chess opening. I begin with A, then you have to go with the next letter up. You also must display the opening. If you don't, your response won't count. Openings do NOT have to be rare.
If you want, you can learn the openings and test them in real Rapid games.
A is for Alekhine's Defense.
