Combos are doing my head in at the moment, so I'll just do names.Wolfram, Peredur, Ptolemy, Wilhelm, Isaac, Edmund, Prosper, Dmitri, Samir, BertalanEsperance (Nancy), Vera, Claudette, Fredrika, Nona, Beatrix, Marie, Jamesina...Ok I can't even finish.(OMG, the only similarities are Edmund- which was Edmond, and Claudette- which was Claudia. Only about three of those names are still on my PNL)

I can't decide which I like better - I might prefer January's actually, marginally, just because I don't like Liam and I don't like Marla very much. And I think Margaret Anna is a brilliant combo - is that still your combo? Milo is really neat as a nickname for Michael.

5. JoyWow. I can't believe it's already been a whole year. Believe it or not my top 5 has not changed all that much at all. Daniel replaced Evan as my number one for boys, moving Evan to 2nd. Samuel still follows Evan and Patrick follows Samuel. Andrew has been replaced with Alexander. Other than that, it's all the same for boys.Grace is now number one instead of 2nd for girls. Anna moved up as well, from 3rd to 2nd. Giovanna, Ava, and Madeleine are no longer on the list. Kara is now 3rd, Iris 4th, and Joy is 5th. Girls have changed much more than boys.We should continue the experiment into next year, I think. I've had fun watching my list change. Hope you all had fun as well =)P.S. Thanks to EVERYONE who remembered to post this for all the months I forgot. =)

I feel kind of dumb putting "much improved" in the subject so I'm going to stop now, but I like these quite a bit better. I do like Hazel and Michelangelo off your old boys list quite a lot though.

I like our girls a lot better - although it is kind of sad to see Sofia not there. Your boys have become a lot more distinctive and I prefer the new style overall, although I don't really like Max, Magnus, or Oscar and I do love all the individual names on your first list.

Your lists are almost the same, lol. I am coming to prefer this spelling of Elinor though and I prefer Jane to Julia. I also love Malcolm. So overall I think I like this list better, even though I mourn the loss of Rose a bit.

I know, it's funny the lists are so similar. I still like Rose, though! My lists are usually of names I would actually name my children, and I have a cousin named Rose. I doubt she would care if I used it, but there it is.I also have a really hard time finding boys names I like, so the boys list is kind of lacking.Anyway...

My Totals (Whole Year)I made an Excel sheet with a point system over the year. It's an average of all the numbers (1 = 10, 2 = 9, etc). So, like Helena has a ten, that means it always got number 1.Helena: 10
Avril: 8.9
Anna: 7
Rosalie: 4.8
Zakiah: 3.4
Esme: 2.6
Grace: 2.4
Casrys: 2.0
Sofia: 1.5
Parisa and Tirzah: 1.3
Stella: 1.2
Seraphina: 1.1
Honor, Lenore, Lux, and Morana: .8
Maude: .6
Lillian: .5
Aviva, Elinor, Lydia: .4
Noelani, Vivienne, and Samara: .3
Amaterasu, Margaret, Persephone, Sarah, and Tabitha: .2
Evangeline, Hollis, Keziah, Verity: .1Ashley: 10
Edward: 8.3
Lucian: 4.2
Morgan: 3.8
Jacob: 3.5
Ari: 2.9
Luke: 2.3
Agathangelos: 1.8
Edgar, Isidore, Zia: 1.5

I vastly prefer your new boys to your old ones! I'm torn on the girls though. I will do a comparison:Helena / Helena
Avril / Avril
Anna / Anna
Carys / Rosalie
Grace / Zakiah
Stella / Aviva
Samara / Parisa
Lenore / Zipporah
Tabitha / Vivienne
Sofia / EsmeLol I guess I like the old list then. :P

I still have all the ones you like on my list, they just don't jump to mind when I'm doing my top 10 (all but Carys are in a combo), but the two you don't like aren't on my PNL anymoreInteresting.
