A Childhood List of Names
So, while I've been listing names for some years, my oldest digital record I have found is dated 2005 (list below). It was saved on a Floppy A drive and likely any digital lists that came before it were overwritten. I should have some paper lists knocking about but right now, here is my 2005 favourite names ist, please feel free to express your thoughts:Zoey (sometimes it was written as Zoeyy)
Cindy
Penny
Melody
Angel
Millie
Katie
Candy
Connie
Sakura
KiaraJoey
Lewis
Thomas
Joshua
Dan
Chandler
Tio
Toshio
Malone
Ikuto
TarutoMy taste in names has changed DRAMATICALLY. Not a single one of these names will be found on any modern list. The closest you'd get is Sakura, but she won't make it to my top 10 on the basis that I'm unsure if I can name a kid a Japanese name without it feeling inappropriate.I'd like to keep Zoë (not Zoey), but she's too popular. I love Toshio, too but I have similar thoughts as Sakura.~oOo~oOo~oOo~"one particular boogie will move mirror massaging with stirring crepe mixture, positioning loaves while in the furnace then toting items in containers" ~ best Russian daing sites (guest, 198.144.149.xxx) (2020)

Penny
Melody
Sakura
KiaraThomas
Joshua
Out of the girls, I especially love the name Connie; it's a personally favorite of mine. Additionally, I really enjoy the names Cindy, Kiara, Millie, Sakura, and Penny for the female names. From your male list, I love the names Lewis and Thomas, but like Dan, Joshua, Chandler, Taruto, Ikuto, and Toshio.
I like Lewis. It has a nice literary vibe. My cat is named Millicent, Millie for short. Could probably work on a human too. Katie is sweet, but also better as a nickname IMHO.
Interesting! Thanks for sharing.Zoe, that spelling, I'd consider keeping.
Not Cindy (though I had a very nice cat with that name); Lucinda is too complicated for me, but I'll take Lucy.
Not Penny, but Penelope
Connie OK as a nn for Constance, which I might just consider.
Not Joey, but certainly Joseph
Lewis! Oh yes; not Louis though
Thomas was the name of both my grandfathers, so it's a keeper.
Not Dan, but DanielThe others are not my style at all.
