Re: Favorite kinds of names
Some of my PNLs are called:
1. "ooo" sound names
2. "or" sound names
3. botanical
4. American
5. French + ScandinavianExamples of names on the American list: Plutina, Thornetta, Katrell, Quana, Artelia, Gravity...These are some names I almost posted for the top 10 in March (but didn't because I couldn't decide on 10):
Christabel
Walida
Jocosa
Knowledge
Miriam
Bryony
Marguerite
GeorgianaRichard
Roger
Balthazar
Baptiste
Raphael
Tariel
Laurentin
BluebirdThey're not my all-time favorites (although I consistently like Raphael and Miriam), but I do like them lately. My fondness for Richard was recent and unexpected; I started liking Arthur a lot more than usual at the same time. Baptiste is one I hate/love.I tend to like *el names. I have one myself.I tend to like holiday names (Candelaria, Praskovya, Loveday, Epiphany, that kind of thing).Sometimes I feel like trendy names in the style of Halo, Harmoni, and Sevyn are charming.I think Caribbean names tend to be interesting (Merline, Marytilde, and Edwidge come to mind, off the top of my head).I tend to like archaic medieval names.I like names that remind me of green.
