There actually was a lot of moving and shaking on my list this past month, particularly in the feminine list:Adam Edmund James

Dominic Edwin
Donovan Leo
Finn Gabriel
Jonathan Isaac

Nathaniel Bennett
Nicholas Rowan
Wesley Owen Rhys
&
Cara Melisende
Claire Elodie Simone
Felicity Charlotte
Fern Alexandra
Juliet Athena
Luna Guinevere
Maxine Amelia
Miranda Willow
Sabrina Lily
Xenia VioletHonorable mentions go to Steffan, Luke, Phaedra, Anastasia, Violet, Leona, and Clara, which were all in my Top 10 over the course of this month. Like I said, lots and lots of moving and shaking!Ten years ago, these were my top names: Richard Ambrose
Hunter Leland
Westley Alden
Gavin Charles
Cameron Michael
Navarre Harris
Owen Malachi
William Caedmon
Edmund Remiel
Derek Joseph
&
Emberine Morgan
Luthien Ariel
Cecily Willow
Aveline Violet
Aurelia Celeste
Philippa Sage
Marian Rosabel
Anjou Lauren
Sabrina Faye
Ever LileasOh wow, that feminine list! I remember my brief fascination with Emberine - I saw it in a novel. And it belonged to a villain! (Okay, fine, it was a smutty paranormal romance.) As I recall, it wasn't well received on these boards, and honestly for good reason. And Luthien is there, reflecting my Tolkien love. Anjou & Navarre further drove home the fact that I'm a medieval buff (that, and the Princess Bride spelling Westley). This is a pretty eye-popping trip down memory lane, actually!

Micah Samuel - I may not be a Samuel fan (or a "Sam" fan in general), but I know a combo with a good flow when I see it. This is great!August Reilly - On paper this is great, but I can't read this name and not see a popped collar, lol! Don't know if he plays tennis, though.Leo Zachariah - I like seeing Leo by itself, and Zachariah is an unexpected but delightful companion. I think I would've opted for Leo Zacharias, though, but that's just me.Wilson Ezekiel - This feels very Western, like a Civil War veteran from the Great Plains, or the Southwest. Basically, like a character in the recent Tom Hanks film News of the World.Hugo Jonathan - While I prefer Hugh to Hugo (don't like the "go" bit), this is a good combo.Archie Malachi - I'm already not a fan of Archie (don't like the "arch" part, and I'm also not fond of Alfie, Charlie, etc. as legal names), but this combo bothers me because of how the "ch" is pronounced differently in both names. It doesn't make visual or auditory sense to me. Sorry.Thomas Carter - As a first and last name, it's nice, if a little boring. There are probably thousands of Thomas Carters in the world. But I cannot get behind Carter as a personal name ("guy who carts things") - nor Cooper, nor any of the other -er surname names.Harvey Asher - This was an unexpected combination. Harvey is a little dated, but I can see it making a comeback. And while I don't like "ash" names in general, Asher goes well here.Thatcher Gray - Thatching a gray roof? That's the image in my mind. As a personal name, Thatcher is way less popular than Carter, Cooper, etc., and it also gives me East Coast prep school vibes, like August Reilly.Jack Fletcher - Fletcher is the second worst of the surnames-as-names group (the worst being Tucker), I cannot understand the appeal of "fletch" as a sound. Sorry.Noah Lincoln - Noah is a good name, if played out in the youngest generation; and Lincoln is a unique option for a middle name that would set little Noah apart from the others.

Elisabetta is a fun addition! One of the people in my poetry MFA cohort is named Elisabetta, but she goes by Libby.

I really like you favorite boy names. Bram, Caspar, Leander, and Lorcán are my favorites, but I like the way they sound together.
