Favourite names as a child?

Hello berries!
I’m just curious to see if anyone had any favourite names as a child that they remember :grin:
For example, at one stage I recall my favourite names being Millicent, Josephine and Lavender. If you don’t mind sharing, what were your favourites?

EDIT: I love reading everyones’ favourites from when they were a child! Thank you for posting!

When I first became interested in names as a child I thought [name_f]English[/name_f] names were really cool :joy: (I was living in Iceland). So my first favorites were names like [name_u]Ashley[/name_u], [name_f]Vicky[/name_f] and [name_u]Taylor[/name_u].

For as long as I can remember, I’ve always loved [name_f]English[/name_f] names. Mainly because [name_f]English[/name_f] is my preferred language, and that was really relevant for me whenever I was living in countries in which [name_f]English[/name_f] wasn’t mainly spoken because those kind of names were familiar and were the most compatible with that language. [name_f]My[/name_f] favourites as a kid were [name_u]Jack[/name_u], [name_u]Charlie[/name_u], [name_u]Michael[/name_u], [name_f]Molly[/name_f], [name_f]Lucy[/name_f], and [name_f]Emma[/name_f].

Oof Karai, [name_f]Luna[/name_f] and [name_f]Astrid[/name_f] were some of my favorites when I was younger (about 6 or 7?). When I was a bit older, about 10, my favorites were [name_f]Una[/name_f], [name_u]James[/name_u] and [name_u]Blue[/name_u]. When I was 12 that’s when I started really really looking through names, that’s when I found my lovely [name_m]Osiris[/name_m] :black_heart: but I also really loved [name_u]Harlow[/name_u], [name_m]Uri[/name_m], [name_u]Oliver[/name_u], [name_u]Penn[/name_u], [name_f]Faye[/name_f] and [name_f]Iris[/name_f] (b)
