EleanorVintage’s Vote For Your Favourites (England & Wales Top 100 in 1904)

Boy Names
1

Carrying on from my previous two threads (I’ve tagged them!) and fuelling my current obsession with England & Wales Top 100 names, I am curious to see which names are our favourites among us berries. I will be posting both boy and girls throughout the decades (kinda like my CAF’s!), so you’ll have to stick with me!

Tricky!

[name_u]Daniel[/name_u], [name_u]Jesse[/name_u], [name_m]Matthew[/name_m], [name_m]Samuel[/name_m], [name_m]Peter[/name_m]

There are lots of names I loved on the list, but my very favorites happen to be the ones that are still commonplace today.
