Here are some questions surrounding PNLs.
1. How many names are on your PNL?
2. Are there more girl or boy names?
3. What’s the longest your list has ever been?
4. What are some names you’re surprised are on your list?
5. What are some names that used to be on your PNL that you’re embarrassed to think about?
6. What are your longest standing names?
My name list is 145 names. About 100 of those are girl names - I’m way more picky for boys. The longest it’s ever been is 1200, at which point I would add literally every name that took my fancy without thinking if I’d want to use it. A year later and I’ve cut it down to size…
The names I’m most surprised by are probably
Violet and
Nora, names I used to hate with a passion but now really like; also
Ivy, which I’ve deleted many times but it always comes back and I honestly love it now; and
Vivian for a boy (the only name I like on both genders).
When my PNL was super long, I had some embarrassing names like Aramaya and Peridot on there. Not my best moment!
Remarkably, there are six girls names that have been consistently on my list since the age of ten.
Willa and
Iris have been there from ten;
Katherine has been there from nine; and
Rose,
Grace and
Lucy have been there for as long as I can remember! I still love all of them.
