[Opinions] Nominate names
For the next name update I would like to draw heavily from the user-submitted collection.If you would like to nominate some of the user-submitted names to be included, you can do so here: https://www.behindthename.com/pnl/nominate.phpThis will help me identify and fill in gaps in this site's collection. (Please note I will not be able to include every name.)

I just nominated a bunch of names that had or have been in the top 1000 long enough to be considered “real names” Aubriana, Everest, Giana, Mac, Maxie, Sincere, Rey, Landry, etc.

I'm rather surprised by Giana. Although it may not be as esthetically pleasing or as common as the original', I assumed it would have been added. Same with Rey, Aubrianna and Mac the most

I'd like to nominate Ismena (ees-MEH-na) and Antygona (an-ti-GAW-na), the Polish forms of Ismene and Antigone, respectively.

I nominate Winsor, a name I submitted, because I'm quite the fan of Winsor McCay's visual style and his influence on the animation industry. He animated complex movements in the straight ahead technique - as it was well before keyframing and tweening became a thing - which is, for those of you unaware, insanely difficult to pull off - he was a very talented man.He is most famous for his Little Nemo comics so if anybody is interested in seeing his works, you can google that and look for his short Little Nemo animation from 1911Edit: I didn't know you could nominate more than one lol. I'll keep it to the one for now

Ooh, can't wait!! 🙂 Looking forward to it. I especially nominate names such as Aaralyn, Adaiah, Araya, Eliah, Gavriella, Ilena, Naya! and maybe Toshirō respectively. Zaire? It would be great to see my collection reduced.Edit: ooh, I didn't realize Zaire has been added already. Yay! So nevermind on that. :D

Great! I have a question though, will the original person who submitted the name get credit?

If you click on the modified date in the lower right corner of a name's page, the edit history will show the original submitter and editors if it originated as a user-submitted name.

Sorry, just wanted to say I nominated my feminine list by accident!

Aw, guess that means I'm out. I've hit the max number of lists.

No worries, I can bump the max lists per user up a bit...
