Yep, I have been completely converted. For girls, my favorite names used to be [name]Taylor[/name], [name]Mallory[/name], [name]Gabrielle[/name], and [name]Autumn[/name]. For boys, I liked [name]Benjamin[/name], [name]Patrick[/name], [name]Hunter[/name], and [name]Jeremy[/name]. I still do like those names, but I would probably not name my child one of them. Now I like much more…hipster names. Haha!
I think I was about half berry when I found the site. The book I would tote around most often was Beyond [name]Ava[/name] and [name]Aidan[/name], and Beyond [name]Jennifer[/name] and [name]Jason[/name] before that. Finding this site just made it a permanent thing 
I think I’ve definitely been influenced by the Berries. When I first came to Nameberry, I had every intention of naming my future sons [name]Cole[/name], [name]Noah[/name], and [name]Griffin[/name], and my daughters [name]Adah[/name], [name]Aria[/name], and [name]Nadia[/name]. Looking back, these names totally do not fit together as I feel my current choices do. However, they are most certainly not as horrible as the Kardashian-esque theme I had going when I was much younger. [name]Imagine[/name] [name]Kylie[/name], [name]Kaylynn[/name], [name]Kelsey[/name], [name]Kendall[/name]… Ew! 
I believe that Nameberry has opened my eyes to different names, names I never would have given a second glance before. And I do think that my taste has changed since I found Nameberry, but I feel I can attribute some of that change to maturity. 
Interesting post, I’m relatively new, but I don’t know how much my taste has actually ‘changed.’ DD (3) was [name]Violet[/name] while we were TTC, and names like [name]Rosemary[/name], [name]Harvey[/name], [name]Genevieve[/name] and [name]Oscar[/name] were on our list when we got married in 2006 However, definitely DEFINITELY expanded the names on the list (and helped me drop others!)
Slightly. Very very slightly.
I don’t think it really is berrfying, but more me just growing up an maturing.
I too have grown to like [name]Eleanor[/name], but only because of an [name]IRL[/name] reference.
My love for [name]Henry[/name] is definitely from Nameberry though. And Serephina too.
Definitely!
I joined this site when I was pregnant on my youngest DD to get opinions on the name Annalyn, which I was definitely going to name her. My shortlist at the time included [name]Beth[/name], [name]Aubrey[/name], [name]Liliana[/name] and [name]Ruby[/name].
I considered completely different names after a few weeks in the forums. All of my original list was discarded and replaced with [name]Clara[/name], [name]Esme[/name], [name]Evelyn[/name] and [name]Freya[/name].
My baby girl ended up being named [name]Violet[/name], which is worlds away from my original consideration.
I’ve always hated tryndee names, but I never realised how popular so many of my favourites were until I joined. I’ve definitely been converted
I’ve definitely been influenced by nameberry, in a good way. My eyes have been openened to hundreds of wonderful names I might not have considered before. I’ve also been a member for a few years and have matured a lot myself, maybe that explains the change of taste.
Interesting question. I think my taste in names has evolved over the years; our oldest is 12 and we’ve had a new one to name every 2-3 years since then. I didn’t have internet access when we were thinking of names for our first; I borrowed a couple of basic baby name books from the library, but we ended up going with a family name for the first name ([name]Darwin[/name]), and a name that dh had always liked for the middle ([name]Peter[/name]). I think we’ve always wanted names that were somewhat uncommon without being totally unknown or made up.
I joined nameberry because I liked a lot of the names that seemed popular on here, and because the posters here seemed open-minded to the types of names I like. I think it has influenced my choices in that I’m more aware of things like how the name flows and how the name fits with sibling names.
Nope, i have always been more alternative in names i like, only recently found nameberry and stuck around becuase my names are popular here
