Martha entered my top 10 because I can't stop thinking about it. I love that it's starchy but also dainty. I wonder if it will return to its early heights of popularity...I've also been thinking about Cynthia. Cynthia! An ancient poetic name that became an overused staple here in the U.S.—fascinating! I think it's silken.Others on my mind are Hypatia, Mayuri, Hero (f), and Howard (because of Howard Hawks).

I do think Martha's catching wind lately. Personally, I still find it matronly and frumpy at this point in time! It also reminds me of the "marthas'" from The Handmaid's Tale. Cynthia is pretty! I do think of Angelica's doll though, from Rugrats lol. Gwyneth kins of gives me the same vibe as Cynthia for whatever reason though and I've been digging that again lately. It was a favorite when I was like 11, oddly enough.
