better evaluated in tens. :-) It's a bit too hard to narrow it down that much and I think I've been mostly going by tens so far.

Pretty heavy on the R's for the boys, I notice.
I'm not much of a nickname person but I do like to some degree Theresia "Thea" (TAY-uh), Thomasin "Thoma" (TOE-ma), and the odd Berta for any name with that ending. Not enough to make sure they're up there on the list, though. I think Thea is more apologetic than anything for how massive I think Theresia feels. I'd just die of Christophine was shortened at all; I'm not a fan of any Chris- nicknames for girls apart from maybe Chris itself.
Mine are almost the same. My boys list is more of a top twenty type of things and a few have moved up a bit higher. It'll all shift again within the same set, I'll bet. My girls are the same but Fatima edged out what I believe was Maria. I'm a bit lukewarm on Maria sometimes. I think it's only a favorite of mine when it's in the combo Maria Christophine, otherwise I'm not always too attracted to it. Fatima is one that I always love but don't necessarily put onto my lists because it's not one that I play with in combos or whatnot.
