HelpRe: Top 10 for March
in reply to a message by Uilos
One or two longtime favorites got replaced this month:
Nicholas Evander
Wesley Owen Rhys
Finn Gabriel
Donovan Leo
Malcolm Elliott
Dominic Adam
Harrison Reid
Jonathan Bennett
Thomas William Gray
Gavin Isaac
&
Sabrina Lily
Helena Josephine
Miranda Violet
Alice Caroline
Felicity Charlotte
Willow Evangeline
Juno Celeste
Genevieve Elise
Lydia Rosalie
Julia Daphne
Harrison, Gavin, Helena, Willow, Lydia, and Julia replaced Cormac, Tristan, Morgana, Zoe, Clarissa, and Marjolaine. (Honorable mentions go to Reed & Lavinia, which were on my list in the interim.)
Harrison has been a peripheral name for me - liked, but not on my PNL - for... decades? When I was a teenager there was a sweet little boy at my family's church named Harrison, which I suppose is a positive influence. But a very negative association with the name Harris (a name I'd also liked) later in life caused me to avoid thinking about Harrison for many years. That negative association hasn't been in my life for... ten years? More? So I've let myself love Harrison again.
And this is the first time in a while that a name from the "Julia family" has entered my Top 10... and even longer since it was Julia, specifically. The classic variant is, currently, the most appealing. In addition, Lydia is one of those names that has always hovered around the edge of my Top 10 (like Lavinia), so I'm kind of glad she's finally in there.
Since I did not participate in the March 2013 thread, I have no ten-year comparison to make.

Lydia almost entered my top 10 this month. Maybe next month it’ll finally make it! (I used to hate it as a kid so that would be a big deal for me lol). I also like Wesley Owen Rhys, Donovan Leo (heart eyes emoji), Thomas William Gray, Helena Josephine (another heart eyes emoji), Willow Evangeline, Juno Celeste, & Julia Daphne.
