-by names are so fun! [name_f][/name_f] I’m intrigued by [name_m]Dansby[/name_m] a LOT but wonder if it’s too tied to [name_m]Dansby[/name_m] [name_m]Swanson[/name_m]. [name_f][/name_f] [name_m]Digby[/name_m] reminds me of [name_m]Digory[/name_m] from the [name_f]Narnia[/name_f] books and also Digger Digwillow (if you’re familiar with Adventures in Odyssey), but I sort of like him? [name_f][/name_f] I’m so fond of [name_m]Crosby[/name_m], [name_m]Catesby[/name_m] (though I generally prefer this for a girl for the nn options of [name_f]Cate[/name_f] and Bea), [name_m]Ashby[/name_m], and [name_m]Darby[/name_m] (which may be my favorite, I love[name_f][/name_f] Darby!).
[name_f][/name_f][name_m]Duff[/name_m] is interesting but is probably better as a nn—also don’t love what it was an abbreviation for in the novel/film (designated ugly fat friend I believe).
[name_f][/name_f][name_m]Elden[/name_m] and [name_m]Elwin[/name_m] are both lovely—also like [name_m]Alder[/name_m], [name_m]Alden[/name_m], [name_m]Adler[/name_m], and [name_m]Adlai[/name_m] which feel similar.
[name_f][/name_f]Cauley has a sweet meaning, though I prefer [name_m]Macaulay[/name_m], and even then I would prefer [name_f]Mackenzie[/name_f] or McAllister or even [name_m]Maccabee[/name_m] to Macaulay—don’t love that I just think of the actor, but it’s a fine name otherwise. [name_f][/name_f] Cauley reminds me of caulk for some reason 
[name_m]Eleazar[/name_m] nn [name_m]Elzie[/name_m] is interesting—it does feel a little unusable with Elsie’s popularity, but I do like [name_m]Eliezer[/name_m] nn [name_m]Elie[/name_m], and I’m not sure [name_m]Elzie[/name_m] is any worse than [name_m]Elie[/name_m]!
[name_f][/name_f]I think [name_m]Ebbie[/name_m] could work for a boy! [name_f][/name_f] [name_m]Like[/name_m] [name_m]Eberhard[/name_m] nn [name_m]Ebbie[/name_m], [name_m]Sebastian[/name_m] nn [name_m]Ebbie[/name_m], [name_m]Gilbert[/name_m] nn [name_m]Ebbie[/name_m] (or Ibby), [name_m]Ebenezer[/name_m] or [name_m]Eben[/name_m] nn [name_m]Ebbie[/name_m], [name_m]Caleb[/name_m] nn [name_m]Ebbie[/name_m], [name_m]Webster[/name_m] nn [name_m]Ebbie[/name_m], [name_m]Zebedee[/name_m] or [name_m]Zebulun[/name_m] nn [name_m]Ebbie[/name_m]? [name_f][/name_f] I’m minorly obsessed with Sebby for [name_m]Sebastian[/name_m] so if he works surely just [name_m]Ebby[/name_m] does!
[name_f][/name_f][name_m]Varen[/name_m] I’m not sure about, but I know a family with a [name_m]Valen[/name_m] which I find super cool.
[name_f][/name_f]Good luck!
