I'm surprised that Emily is still so incredibly popular in both Scotland and Ireland, as it's falling in Australia, Canada, and the U.S. (not quickly enough for me, though - I know way too many Emilys). Olivia is a name I used to love, but its uber-popularity has killed the charm for me (however, I've never warmed up to Oliver). I really dislike Isla, though; but its popularity in Scotland (where Islay is) is perhaps the most understandable.

Of this list, these are the names I do like:

---

Olivia
Freya
Ella
Ava
&
Noah
Harris
Finlay
James

---

Of those names, however, I would only consider using Freya, Ella, and maybe Finlay (though I prefer Finn).

---

Harris was a very pleasant surprise! It's a name I truly enjoy, but a very negative association prevents me from using it. If it weren't for that one... douchebag... which is really too mild a word...
