I love Honora. :)

---

Reuel and Admiel are new to me. I like them both! Is Admiel a Hebrew name?

I've been liking Jamie on a girl more lately, and seeing it amongst the general style of names on your list really makes me see it a bit differently and like it even more. I think of it as one of those pleasantly dated names, but alongside the likes of Georgia, Charlotte, Sophia, Louise, Rosalie... I can see an elegance in it, too.

---

It has entered my incredibly short list of names I like for both genders. But I still much prefer it as a nn for James. Can't get much more handsome than that. :)

I like/love:

---

Ariana, Helena, Lydia Rosalie, Levi Anthony and Jacob. :)

Those combos are all amazing, but I'm especially loving Albert Cymbeline.

I like/love

---

Lilian, Benjamin, Elias, Dominic, Gabriel and Nathaniel. :)

My favourites are Eve, Felicity, Ivy, Leo, Silas, Elias and Henry. :)

Loving your names

I love Eliana and Matthias! :)

I love/like:

---

Anna, Lydia, Rose, Henry and Leo. :)

I love the idea of Alyssum as a name. In fact, I like that, but I really dislike Alyssa. But I'm partial to alyssum anyway... very pretty flowers.

I like all the boy names.

---

Girl names I like:

Bethany
Elise
Lorinda
Noemi

Alyssum is very nice indeed

I like:

Christopher John - ditto
Oliver Henry - I like it a lot
William Morgan - like it a lot

Jacob Elias - like Jacob, meh on Elias, feels like a weird combo
Kendal Mason - really don't like this at all, it's kinda ugly imo

I love Oscar Jules Pierre

Philomena! I've loved her for a long time, but she always sneaks by somehow. My favorite combo with it is Philomena Alison. I don't know why it is perfect, but it is. Just popped into my head one day out of the blue.

---

Errol Franklin... swoon.

I've never seen Madelief before. It reminds me of Madeleine or Madison, but I like it more, but I still don't like it that much. Hm.

---

Otherwise I really like your girls list.

---

And I love your boys list, except for Silas, which I hate. Love Leander and Torsten especially!! Wow, Torsten is really getting some love on these boards.

Madelief is so adorable, but I haven't been liking it as much the past year or so. Maybe that shall change soon. Also happy to see Bevan on your list. He doesn't get enough attention.

I like seeing Margery and on this list. I also like Augusta and Florence.

Very "turn-of-the-century" lists.

---

I like Agatha, Augusta, Eugenia, Florence, and Octavia. Neutral towards Ernestine, Henrietta, Margery, and Winifred. Hate Mildred. Such an ugly sound imo.

---

I like Ambrose, Arthur, Peregrine and Zimri. Neutral towards Alfred, Algernon, ernest, Horatio, Rudolf, and Ulysses.

---

Ambrose has been growing on me a lot lately since I started reading Fables. It's the name given to the Frog Prince, who is one of the main characters and who is pretty much the nicest guy in the stories. Great character.

So nice that somebody loves Mildred!

Taliesin

---

How do you pronounce Taliesin?

I like everything on your list, except Margery which I'm neutral towards.

---

Another Taliesin surprises me! Man, that name is really growing on me. I just added it to my pnl.

---

Also, you're gonna make me love Arsendis lol

High five for Llewellyn!

---

Taliesin is good stuff, too.

I love Caolan!

Another Georgiana! So classic and beautiful and elegant.

---

Isabeau is super cute too.

Why did I not know you also love Fionnuala? Is this a recent thing? This makes me happy. Yay for Norman, too!

---

And Jochebed has caught my eye a few times lately. I like how it feels very humble and shy (ooh, and purple), but you definitely notice her.

---

ETA: Do you have an Jochebed combos? I tried making some and it was really hard! But I found a few I like. Just curious.

Boys:
August Patrick - handsome, I like it. Kinda southern to me for some reason.
Elliot Ambrose - Geeky but handsome.
Anderson Connor - omg I thought this said Anderson Cooper at first and was about to ask if you were a big fan of his lol I like it though
River Malachy - Not a fan. River is ok but I hate Malachy
Donovan Jude - Cool. Feels like a cool mix between American and English naming tastes.
Zachary Tiernan - This looks like something my sister would name her kids haha It's cute.
Lewis Ciaran - I like this one a lot! It kinda surprised me. I like this spelling of Lewis over Louis.
Ronan Peter - I like both names but this combo feels weird to me
Easton Zachariah - Another one my sister would like. You're not my sis are you? lol
Brody Vincent - Meh. Not a fan of Brody but Vincent is ok. This combo feels weird for some reason.

---

Girls:
Matilda Isobel - I love Isobel and hate Matilda, but this combo is pretty.
Anastaszia Millicent - Love Anastaszia and hate Millicent, but I don't like this combo.
Georgiana Evangeline - Love this bunches! So pretty! I love Georgiana, but I love it as a mn, I have tons of combos with it lol

... Load Full Message

Ohhhh, I'm in love with Matilda Isobel!!!!

I love your combos. Many of the names individually I love, but I just enjoy the way you put them together. They end up with a fresh twist.

Eira is one of those names that goes on and off my favorites like crazy. I like it but sometimes I get sick of it for some reason. I prefer it in Gwyneira.

---

Love how popular August / Augustus is here lol I know this is a small board but it still feels like in 10 years, August will be in the top 20 haha

I like Ophelia. Matteus is nice as well.

Bonnie Elise - Very pretty, love it. There's something very classic about it.
Lucy Meadow - Cute
Daphne Juliette - A bit too cutesy imo
Meadow Caroline - I like this. It walks the line between cute and classic very well.
Alice Cordelia - Gorgeous! Love it bunches! I think I may need to borrow it lol
Katherine Victoria - Another beautiful one.
Penelope Iris - And another! lol
Matilda Juliet - Eh, not a fan of Matilda at all. I think it's just such an ugly sounding name. But I love Juliet.
Sophie Emmeline - So soft and pretty. Very feminine.
Milana Katherine - Exotic yet classic. Love it.
Elise Violet - Dainty and pretty, has a kind of Victorian vibe that I like.
Daisy Coraline - Cutesy, but not overly so. Pretty.

---

Henry Alexander - Very handsome and sophisticated.
Arthur Barnaby - Love it bunches! Barnaby is a major GP of mine, and I adore Arthur. This is such a handsome combo.
Jude Alasdair - Handsome, but a bit too rich for me.
Milo Felix - Very cute!
Jonah Gabriel - Prefer Gabriel Jonah, but I like it.
Linus Edmund - I like Edmund, but not Linus. Linus sounds so snivelly to me.
Oscar Sebastian - I prefer Sebsastian Oscar, but I like it.
August Rhys - Handsome and a bit eclectic. I like it!
Syler Augustus - Love Augustus to pieces, hate Syler. Sounds pretentious (more than Augustus lol)
Malcolm - cool
Rafferty - meh

Gorgeous lists!

---

I love Aurelius, Benjamin, Callum, Sebastian, and Theodore especially, as well as Freya, Isolde, and Helena.

---

I love all forms of Isolde - Isolda, Yseult, Izolda, Eseld (my favorite). So pretty!

So many Biblical names! I like a lot of them. I've really been leaning towards Gavriel lately especially. I've loved Gabriel for a long, long time, but I like the small different Gavriel brings to it. It feels a little rock n roll lol

---

The only ones I'm not a fan of are Ariel (prefer for girl) and Heshel, which I just don't like for some reason. It's weird for me, like it's hard to say or something. I don't know why.

---

Also, I'm just now realizing you're MariaNikolaievnaRomanova lol Hi!

I love your boy names!

---

I'm particularly fond of

---

Noam
Anshel

All pretty/handsome.

---

Except for Malachy, which I loathe lol That's part of my "unholy" trinity of ugly male names, along with Mordecai and Malachi. They all sound like death to me, no offense.

---

Also, I love Euphemia, nn Effie. So cute!

Shoshana stands out in your girls list, is there a story behind your love of that (as opposed to Susannah or Susan)? Oh and I'm currently browsing through royal geneologies on Wikipedia and coming across a few Euphemias, it's so neat to see them interspersed there.

---

Ieuan is sure fun. Look may, no consonants (almost)!

I like Roisin, Shoshana, Elizabeth, William, Llewellyn, James, John and Alasdair (prefer Alastair) :)

I love Virginia! It was my favorite for over a year when I was about 16. I also really like Elizabeth. I want to like Margaret, but I know one who is horrible. I hope I will meet a nice person named Margaret so it can grow on me because it's such a lovely name.

Girls
1. Lorna
2. Andromeda
3. Desdemona
4. Noelle
5. Idony
6. Laurel
7. Eleanor
8. Amity
9. Edith
10. Susan

---

All the girl names are beautiful. Especially Andromeda, Idony, and Eleanor. Idony is so pretty and fragile sounding.

---

Boys
1. Ingram
2. Meredith
3. Scott
4. Herbert
5. Judah
6. Conrad
7. Bram
8. Crispin
9. Colin
10. Iain

---

I only like Scott, Bram, Colin, and Iain. I know Meredith is a boy's name too but to me it's just too ingrained as a feminine name now.

---

I'm surprised by the love Crispin is getting on these lists. I think it's such a horrible sound: "crisp" ew

Meredith has been creeping up my boy's list methinks. I've always liked it, but he's making a run towards the top. Can't get much more handsome and smooth than him.

---

I also love Eleanor, Edith (why don't more people like this? sooo cute), Ingram (another I've been thinking about lately), Bram, Crispin, Colin, and Iain.

Ofelia!! I keep trying to promote Ofelia over Ophelia lol it's just so much prettier imo.

---

And Peredur! Omg I like a lot of your names.

---

The only ones I don't like are Olga, which sounds like ugly to me, and Aadolf, because of Hitler. I think that's one of those names that's going to take a long, long, time to become "acceptable" again.

Robin for a boy! Yay! And Theodore :D

---

Th only names I'm not a fan of are Jericho and Greyson. I like Gray, but not Greyson, and Jericho is too harsh for me.

Ooh, an Angela! She doesn't get much attention. Maybe because she's not the sort who needs to be the center of attention. I've been harboring an Angela crush for quite awhile. Also, I want to hug most of your boy's names.

I'm really starting to like Anouk.

Seriously, I like/love every single one of your names.

---

I've been seriously considering Taliesin for a while now. I've always liked it but it's been growing on me more and more.

---

Your names lists feel so magical. I love the Arthurian thing. A lot of my favorite names are Athurian as well.

Yay, someone else who likes Eirlys!

---

I love Maeve, Winter, Katherine, Ione, Eirlys, Lucy & August. I like Rowan but only on a boy.

Hey, Tabitha :) My name doesn't seem to be too popular here so it always makes me smile when I see it on someone's favorites list!

---

I like pretty much all your names except for Esther and Crispin.

---

Cassius is so much fun too, it's one of my favorite names to say aloud lol

I like Hope, Gillian, Crispin, Richard, Noel, and Thomas.

---

Una spelt Oona
Carys
Ernestine
Clemency
Primrose

---

Liam
Archibald

I love Una, Ernestine, Angus, and Alasdair. I like Clemency too. Sophus is neat and interesting, it always catches my eye when I see you post it.

OMG.

---

You have Lykke on your list.

---

I think that just made my day.

---

I'm also pleased to see Adele, Cerys, Carys (LOVE, and would be perfect with Elsa & Arwen. Just sayin' ;), Angus, Findlay & Alistair.

---

Congrats on baby number 3, btw :)

I like:

---

Polly
Ivy
Matilda

---

Frederick

Wow, another Hugo lol I love the love that name gets here.

---

You have very Shakespearean/Celtic lists.

---

I love Josephine too, but I prefer the French Josiane.

---

Handsome lists btw :D

Oooh love Saoirse, Nuala (but prefer as a nn), Roisin (always high on my list), Cormac, Seamus, and Gwilym! I'm so happy to see someone with Gwilym on their list! I go back and forth on how much I like him, and you've caught me in an upswing.

---

I like Aloysius and Hugo, too. And Polly really is pretty adorable.

Yay for Saoirse & Roisin! I love the meanings and they are so pretty with their original spellings.

---

Oh my gosh, I really like both your lists a lot. I like your taste in names! Very classic, with a touch of eclecticism.

---

And you have Hugo on your list!! I've a secret undying love for Hugo. So underrated. It's such a fun, handsome name. I imagine it on a dashing, charming, adventurer :)

Hooray for Gwendolen!

Aw, Tennyson is adorable. It's a favorite GP of mine. I really like all you boy names.

---

I also like Arwen, Juliet, and Benjamin. I go back and forth on Charlotte, Hugo, and Alexander. I guess I like just straight Alexander, no nns or anything.

Yay Hugo! I like a lot of your boys names, Hugo, Benjamin, Noah, Sebastian, Alexander, Jasper and Ezekiel.

---

Evelina and Josephine are favourites of mine too.

This message was edited 6/1/2011, 12:31 PM

I love Sofia, Zara, Kerensa, Hugo, Noah and Jasper.

---

Was funny seeing Charlotte and then Sofia...my cousins are Charlotte & Sophia (not sisters) and Lottie's full name is actually Charlotte Sophie! Neat.

Edurne! I completely forgot about Edurne in my post. A recent favourite that may have a chance to crack my Top 50 sometime in the near future. Hm...

---

I also like Lyra, Genevieve, Bram, and Leon.

Love Lyra and Gabriel :)

I like:

---

Eseld
Genevieve
Belen

---

Lucan
Gawain
Gabriel
Bram

Theodosia! I love seeing that name. I like pretty much all your names: Edurne (very interesting!), Eseld, Belen, Artemisia (so lovely), Ourania (thanks for introducing this to me, I can't believe I've missed this), Jacomina, Lucan, Bedivere, Augustus, Gawain, Francis, Gabriel, Remy and Bram.

Ohh pretties! Love Eseld, Genevieve, and Belen especially, and Edurne, Lyra, Ourania, and Jacomina are beautiful too.

---

From your boy's list I love Eben, Augustus, Francis, and Bram, and you did kind of talk me into Bedivere, too.

Lyra & Genevieve are so pretty.

---

So weird to see Lucan on your list! I named one of my stuffed toys Lucan when I was just a little kid. I have no idea where I got it from (in my case, I was probably playing around with Lucas and came up with that, I know I liked Lucas when I was a kid). I had NO idea it was an actual name. I thought I just made it up.

---

I like Francis and Gabriel, and I love Remy to bits. A friend of mine just named her son Remy.

I like

---

Xanthe
Sylvie
Adelaide
Florence

---

Oscar
Winston
Boaz

I like Eirlys, Sylvie (prefer Silvie), Adelaide, Florence, August, Boaz, Prosper and Zimri :)

I like Adelaide and Florence. I used to love August on a girl, but not so much anymore. Levi is nice, too.

I now squee inside when I see Grover on your lists. :)

---

I also like August, Boaz, and Prosper, and am coming around on Oscar.

I love Florence! It just missed out my top ten. Eirlys is cool, I really like the sound of it.

---

Other names I like are Elodie, Adelaide, August Oscar, Levi and Ezra.

Xanthe, Elodie and Sylvie are awesome! Eirlys could become a new favourite of mine. August used to be a fave of mine...may come back one day :)

I like Xanthe, Geneva, Sonnet, Elodie, and Adelaide.

---

I'm never sure how to say Alcyone but no matter how I say it, it just isn't pretty coming out of my mouth lol and Eirlys is different. This is the first time I've ever seen it... And - I'm not meaning this as an insult - but a lot of your girl names sound like city names. I feel like I've been to half of them, which was a weird feeling lol

---

Yeah, August! I am looking forward to having a little boy one day named August / Augustus and calling him Gus haha Or maybe I'll have to settle for a dog, I dunno. But I am determined to have a little Gus one way or another! It's just too adorable.

---

I also like Prosper and Felix. Your boy names list is so Shakespearean! I love it haha
