Re: Among the names you like, which ones are different from your usual name categories your like?
Lately, I've been suddenly liking a lot of names that either never caught my eye before or that I even really disliked in the past.I've been liking a lot of "dated" names but definitely not comeback-ready dated names like Denise, Erin, Gina, Brenda, Christa, Lindsey, and Jeffrey.And a lot of trendy and/or odd/wild most on this board would definitely gag at like Bunny, Channing, Dream, Harlow, Jancey, Melody (a bit more acceptable for BtN), Rooney, Sapphire, Nova, Serenity (not as bad I don't think?), Paris (f), Liberty (but I do hate the ultra-patriotic connotations), Carrington, Jaiden (not currently any of the things I listed but definitely a pretty collective board "ick"), Jensen, and Xander (again, not as bad). Of course these are all subjective, I don't intent to speak for all of BtN, just from my experience.I also like Skyler for both genders. Maybe Schuyler? I've gone back & forth for years. Definitely Skyler > Skylar though.I also like Quinn (f) a lot as of late! Other names that differ from my general style: Keanu, Odysseus, Orion.
*Of course these are all names I just like and not what I'd actually call a child.A handful of my favorites I think showcase my general style are Amara, Beatrice, Cecily, Gwendoline "Gwen", Helena, Jane, Lenore, Lucille "Lucy", Margaret, Natalie, Pearl, Sybil, Cillian, Cristian, Dimitri, Elliott, Henry, Julian, Levi, Sebastian, Solomon, Ulysses.
