Almost missed it this month! Most of my changes were in the feminine list this time (which... is honestly pretty typical for my tastes):
Asa
Dominic
Donovan
Finn
Isaac
Kieran
Malcolm
Nicholas
Richard
Wesley
&
Elaine*
Josephine
Julia
Lauriana
Mary Emma (double name)
Miranda
Olivia*
Sabrina
Veronica*
Zoe
(Names with an asterisk are ones I cannot use in real life, at least not as first names.)
Asa, Kieran, Julia, Mary Emma, and Zoe replaced Adrian, James, Arlette, Marguerite, and Sapphira. Almost all of the names replaced were names newly added last month.
Mary Emma is a very recent love of mine--and I'm someone who has always found both names, individually, boring. I think the sound reminds me a bit of Miriam, but... more updated, maybe? I don't know, but I think they complement one another well.
