[name_m]Titus[/name_m] [name_m]Charles[/name_m]

I’m actually not a fan of [name_f]Wednesday[/name_f] nor [name_m]Titus[/name_m] at all, but I think their full names flow very nicely.

[namergirl3]

Surprising: [name_f]Wednesday[/name_f] [name_f]Anne[/name_f], Jericha [name_f]Willow[/name_f], [name_f]Iliana[/name_f] [name_f]Isabel[/name_f], Kynzlie … … (on a boy), [name_m]Miller[/name_m] [name_m]Donald[/name_m] (only because it seems like [name_m]Donald[/name_m] would be the first name), Raylon [name_m]Stuart[/name_m] (I’m hearing Raylon a lot recently. [name_m]Stuart[/name_m] is interesting this this…I like it though).

*note, surprising doesn’t mean I hate them or anything lol…I just hear the same names so often, hearing different ones is a welcome surprise.

Favorites;
[name_f]Emma[/name_f] [name_f]Catherine[/name_f]: so classic and beautiful!
[name_f]Lyla[/name_f] [name_f]May[/name_f]: neither of these names have ever been favorites of mine, but together, they sound beautiful
[name_m]Lachlan[/name_m] [name_u]James[/name_u]: I really like how these go together
[name_m]Calvin[/name_m] [name_m]Anthony[/name_m]: I’ve really grown to love [name_m]Calvin[/name_m] over the years! [name_m]Anthony[/name_m] is a favorite of mine too
[name_m]Lincoln[/name_m] [name_m]Gregory[/name_m]: I like [name_m]Lincoln[/name_m], and for some reason, I’m really fond of [name_m]Gregory[/name_m] as a middle name
