Re: Favorite kinds of names
I like geographical names. I'll take anything that can be found on a map and has enough human name quality. I tend to prefer names of mountains, bodies of water and bioms to city/country names.Also, plant names that aren't too frilly: Fern, Laurel, Willow etc. On the other hand, I don't like long floral names like Petunia or Wisteria. As for sounds, I enjoy the "tr" and "dr" letter groups: Katrina, Tristan, Adrian.I also like classic names but prefer those that have been popular for many decades like John, Alexander, Maria and Anna. Names like Theodore and Amelia feel rather vintage-trendy, not true "classics".
