I really want to like these names, but - but - they're boring. I feel like I've seen these names thousand times before. The only one that makes me happy is Toini Ingrid. The rest are blah. Sure, pretty names (Elsa Matilda is beautiful), but how boring!

I wish Eliel wasn't this trendy.

Hi Remora !!!

I like some names here:

Rasmus Reino
Toivo Erik Mikael
Onni
Voitto Ilmari (without Anselmi)
Elsa
Ester
Maija
Lilja
Terhi

How do you judge this bunch? I would have good taste if I were Finnish?

"Good taste" is subjective, so I won't give a comment on that. Of the names you like, I love Ester and like Elsa. I'm also on the edge of liking Terhi and Maija (if that makes any sense). And even if it isn't my favorite name, I will always be somewhat fond of Rasmus, as I used to be a big fan of the band The Rasmus when I was a tween :)
