Help[Opinions] Are There Any Names You Keep Coming Back To?
Are there names you liked in the past, then forgot about them as new names emerged on your radar and suddenly rediscovered them again in a whole new light? Are there some names that you never got out of your head and have been favorites since you can remember?

I’ve always liked Lily. I don’t think I’ll pick it, though. I really like it though. It’s what I named people in my books in preschool. I was obsessed with Eliza for a bit, and Hamilton definitely helped that.
Around the same time as Eliza, I named myself Helen in a movie I made with friends as a joke for fun.
Soon after, I liked Rachel, Fiona, and Luna. Then I started liking Acadia.
I then fell in love with the name Elisa(spelled Elysa). Keep in mind these picks range from preschool to sixth grade.
Then I heard the same Scarlett, and I just felt like I found the perfect name. I knew a Scarlett in Kindergarten, and she scared me. Funny, we’re actually friends now. Anyway, that’s the name I love. I continued to love Fiona, until I realize people my age just think of Shrek.

These are names that have been on my list forever:
Dominic
Donovan

Nicholas
Owen
Richard
Thomas
Wesley
&
Anastasia
Cecily
Deirdre
Genevieve
Iris
Josephine
Juliet
Lydia
Maeve
Miranda
Morgana
Penelope
Sabrina

Other than perhaps Wren (which I've used perennially as a middle), all of these names have appeared in my Top 10 at some point. Some of them are still there (Dominic, Donovan, Malcolm, Nicholas, Richard, Wesley & Sabrina).

I love Helen!
I've loved Mariel, Lucinda, Anthony, Linnea, and Zinnia ever since I heard them. I've liked Jade, Lily, Cleo, Anna, Jay, Cade, Hayden ever since I heard them. I used to not care for Rochelle, Sheridan, Shannon, Linden or Melinda, but I love them now. I've never forgotten Sebastian, Anna, Daniel, Drake, Cole, and I enjoy them, too. I hated Bertha until I saw its German pronunciation. So much better.
I like L's at the beginning of names and long A vowels in the middle...hah.
