I sort of floundered towards the ends of both lists. I only have about 5 first names that I'm loving at the moment for either gender.
*= on last months list.

Wow. I hadn't checked out the other lists yet. I'm glad to see Jules too!
I really like your style. There is not one name on this list that I would not consider myself.
Alba really deserve more use (though I will admit that I prefer Rosalba in many cases). Maeva is just lovely, and Iris, Zelda and Lilac should be far more loved than they are.
Wren on a boy is fantastic, and Jules, Atlas and Icarus are great statement names... It almost seems like you are a classic sci-fi fan though, since many of these names seem to remind me of Asimov or Heinlen characters.

I really appreciate that. I always worry people will think my tastes are a bit off.
It's funny you would say that about sci-fi as I'm not much of a fan at all. To me, the names on my list have a more natural, earthy vibe without all being nature names and then literary and mythological connections feature more prominently for boys.
I'll be doing a bit of reading though. Maybe a bit of Asimov or Heinlen could help me expand my boy's list.
Thanks so much!
