I love Clare. The rest are pretty common. However, Siena with one n is unusual.Why unfortunately? Bad bunch?
I honestly like Siena with one N. Also, I didn't know Stoyan and Eamon were common. I'd never heard them before this class.I just think a complete lack of diversity is very sad.
I like Annie, Clare, Ellie, Ethan, Hannah, Jack, Rachel, Samantha, and Thomas.
I love Clare! Also Anne but not Annie, Tessa but not Teresa, and Vanessa but not Venessa. I also love Jack, as a nn for John, and Thomas.
I like Aubrey (only on a boy), Clare, Lila, Stoyan, and Teresa.
Unfortunately, this particular Aubrey is a girl.
I like Stoyan
The others are all okay or I don't like them.
