Re: Do you consider your tastes traditional?
my taste in names isn't very traditional, though I generally prefer names with more historical precedence over much newer names. however, I do like the use of traditional names in ways that are unconventional, for example: masculine names for girls and feminine names for boys; modern usage of very old and rare names; mixing names of different ethnic/cultural origins (as long as it's done sensitively and meaningfully); and using diminutives of traditional names which aren't commonly used (or coming up with your own).
