http://www.behindthename.com/bb/arcview.php?id=3223773&board=babyYou should know what to do by now-- post your top 5 for each gender, so when January rolls around, you can look back at how your naming tastes changed over the year, and you can compare from month to month.

I don't think I've done this before but I can start now lol. I don't really have an order for these, love almost all equally. I'll try to order them a bit though. It hasn't really changed much during the year, my top 4 girls' names have been the same for a while, but Cassandra is a recent addition. Lachlan's fallen a bit (used to be #1), Christian's re-entered my PNL and gone to #1, Alistair's been relegated to 2 from 3, and Aubrey and Nathaniel have climbed their way back into my top 5.
Girls:
1=Tamsin
1=Matilda
1=Violet
1=Claire
5. CassandraBoys:
1. Christian (Kit)
2. Nathaniel
3. Alistair
4. Aubrey
5. Lachlan

May:GirlsOttoline
Lucretia
Edith
Florence
Clementine
(Cecilia remains in 6th for now. The alternate spelling really bothers me)
Boys:Cosmo
Alastair
Clarence
Maxim
Lucius
(Ignatius has climbed to 6th atm).
Movement: Ottoline & Cosmo remain in my top spot yet again. Lucretia's risen to number 2 from #5 while Alistair has come from 15th to 2nd. Edith retains third place while Clarence appears there from almost nowhere. He's long been a love of mine but have been afraid to consider him until recently. I suspect he may supplant Cosmo before years end. Florence has dropped to 4th. Maxim, as a family name (to H*** with the magazine), replaces Miles, which I'm tiring of and Clementine has climbed from 6th to 5th. While Lucius has slid from third to fifth, I worry about his slickness next to my less polished other kids. the HP link does not bother me in the slightest.. It's fiction, after all!

I'll do combos, if you don't mind.Mostly because I actually have them, for the most part.GIRLS
1. Lydia Temperance
2. Zelda Lenore

4. Elizabeth Sigurrós
5. Agnes May
(Honorable mention: Zora, or Tziporah NN Zora)BOYS
1. Thomas Jerome
2. Edward Miles
3. Edmund Philip
4. Arthur (no combo atm)
5. Neil (no combo atm)Not much has changed from April except the actual construction of combos that I like and the order of preference for some names, as well as others dropping off the list entirely.(Ignore the fact that names like Edward and Edmund, and Iris and Agnes, are too close for siblings, as I'm not actually considering that when making the combos.)

I'm still doing Top 10 for each gender, because that's what I started doing so I'll continue. And again, I'll try to go by what I'd actually name a child IRL when/if I ever have a child. Girls:
1. Isla
2. Nora
3. Elsa
4. Clara
5. Violet
6. Iris
7. Audrey
8. Rosalie
9. Ruby
10. OliveBoys:
1. Henry
2. Julian - this is very "me" though I often forget about it
3. Isaac - loving this lately (unfortunately, so are a lot of people, as it's getting more popular :-/)
4. Gabriel - see #3
5. August - this is dropping for me, though it's still a mn contender
6. Graham
7. Elliott
8. Quinn
9. Rowan
10. Miles
And though it hasn't made the Top 10 yet, a name that has been on my mind lately is Fletcher.
ETA: Fletcher made the Top 10 last month and I totally forgot. :b

I am really sick of my girl combos. I've also started to think about what I would really name any children I had...meaning what names would I really want to have to say over and over again. Also...I've met some people with the names I liked and now I don't want to use them.
