Last month marked a huge, unexpected shift in my feminine name tastes, ditching some longtime favorites and getting rid of most of the ones that ended with -a. There wasn't as significant a change this month - which means that previous changes are likely here to stay:

---

Nicholas Bennett
Wesley Owen Rhys
Finn Gabriel
Donovan Leo
Malcolm Elliott
Nathan Alaric
Dominic Edwin
Adam Raphael
Theodore Joseph
Thomas Matthew Emory
&
Sabrina Lily
Caroline Willow
Adelaide Ivy
Violet Isobel
Miranda Juliet
Iris Emmeline
Felicity Charlotte
Maxine Rosalie
Guinevere Elise
Summer Eloise

---

Theodore (formerly a middle), Thomas (formerly a middle), and Summer replaced Jude, Stefan, and Eseld from last month. Finding middles for Maxine & Summer was a difficult task, but I think I've found them.

---

I did, in fact, participate in the August 2012 thread, and these were my combos then:

---

Richard Alden
Cameron Wesley
Jeffrey Dane
Hunter Leland
Gilead Maxwell
Dominic Edmund
Yorick Xavier
Alexander Everett
Gregory Lorne
Malcolm Rowan
&
Ursula Zoe
Sabrina Vivian
Penelope Josephine
Charlotte Olivia
Elinor Fiona
Enid Wilhelmina
Anastasia Natalie
Magnolia Cassandra
Sylvia Florence
Delilah Evangeline

For a long time Edmund was my stock middle name for Dominic instead of Edwin; and Vivian was the stock middle for Sabrina. And while I'm fairly sold on Malcolm Elliott these days, I don't think Rowan is a bad middle in this context. Sylvia Florence is quite nice, too.

---

Of course, these days I can't hear Gilead without thinking of The Handmaid's Tale. And I have no idea what Gregory and Magnolia are doing here.
