Help[Opinions] What are your favorite names?
I'm sure this is really self explanatory, but what names do you love? It could be because of the meaning, significance in your life [A family member, famous person], or just because you like it! I'd love to see people's lists!
My favorite girl names [At the moment ;)]:
-Saskia
-Sedona
-Catherine
-Katariina [Literally just the Finnish variant of Catherine]
-Jane
-Ingrid
-Mary
-Elizabeth
-Genevieve
-Leah
-Lilja
-Alexandra
-Laura [I find myself saying Laura a lot lately, I don't know, I just love how it sounds!]
[You can probably see a common theme here, I really enjoy the good old basic classics!]
Boys:
-Lauri
-Elias
-Andres
-Alexander [Aleksandr]
[I suck at boys names, but I try to pick ones that I see in books or just people in general that make me think 'that sounds nice']
Feel free to criticize my choices and share your own!

I get that! For some reason boys names are really hard for me! I love the name Clara though!
Alessia is adorable! I love Francesca, it sounds so elegant

I get the "eh" about Sedona, it's a guilty pleasure for me! Love Katarzyna though! Alexsey is one of my favorites as well! Lovely list!
Tristan reminds me of Tristan and Isolde, which is one of my absolute favorite stories of all time! Jade is adorable
