Thank you everyone!
@somemelodioussonnet - I misread [name_m]Jones[/name_m] as [name_m]Jonas[/name_m], who I’m mighty fond of - I wish I could find a combo I truly adored because if so, I would very likely add him to my list! [name_m]Love[/name_m] [name_m]Maximilian[/name_m] as well - he’s my middle for [name_f]Sasha[/name_f]!
@Greyblue - not sure why but when I saw [name_m]Milan[/name_m] it jumped off the page for me! Although I don’t know that I can see me with a [name_m]Milan[/name_m]
I have been thinking about [name_m]Florin[/name_m], I really do love him! And [name_m]Sebastian[/name_m] is on my short list but he’s gotten so much more popular; the ties to my beloved Twelfth [name_m]Night[/name_m] aren’t nearly so strong these days with all the Sebastians running around! I do also love just [name_m]Bastian[/name_m] but my favorite part of [name_m]Sebastian[/name_m] is the option for Seb/Sebby as a nn, and I don’t have that with just [name_m]Bastian[/name_m]! [name_m]Lorcan[/name_m] I don’t think is going anywhere, I very nearly listed him in my OP but didn’t for some reason. I don’t know that there will ever be a period where I don’t love [name_m]Lorcan[/name_m] though. He feels so special and unexpected here!
@Demoiselle - thank you, [name_f]Wendy[/name_f]! I have been liking [name_m]Aquila[/name_m] [name_m]Clement[/name_m] a lot lately - [name_m]Aquila[/name_m] [name_m]Leo[/name_m] [name_m]Grey[/name_m] is my combo, but I also really like [name_m]Aquila[/name_m] [name_m]Clement[/name_m]! I’m not sure I can see me with a [name_m]Clement[/name_m], but I do love him and [name_f]Clemency[/name_f]. [name_m]Love[/name_m] [name_f]Bryn[/name_f], [name_m]Ivo[/name_m], and Amias… I haven’t been loving [name_m]Amias[/name_m] as much as I did probably a year ago, but he’s still definitely on my short list. I wish he’d get back all his lustre for me because I do truly love him so much.
@EloiseT - thank you! I cannot believe I left out [name_m]Jules[/name_m], he is definitely at the top of my list with the other names in my OP right now! I need a combo for him, but I would be elated to have a little [name_m]Jules[/name_m]!
@may.rose - thanks lady! [name_f]Shiloh[/name_f] and [name_m]Peregrine[/name_m] nn [name_f]Pippin[/name_f] are definitely huge contenders! I love them. [name_m]Tobias[/name_m] is so handsome, too - I think I’m still looking for a combo to make him sing, but he feels so wholesome and goodhearted. I had a dream about the most adorable little [name_m]Tobias[/name_m] a year or two ago and ever since I’ve been very fond of him.
@tori101 - thanks lady! [name_m]Samson[/name_m] or [name_m]Sampson[/name_m] 100% should be in the running! I miss having [name_m]Sam[/name_m] on my list, and if I could find a [name_m]Sampson[/name_m] combo I loved, I would probably add him. He is more unexpected than [name_m]Samuel[/name_m], and I love that he’s a rarer Bible name. I don’t think I listed [name_m]Judah[/name_m] in my OP, but [name_m]Judah[/name_m] is definitely not going anywhere. I might need a new middle, though; [name_m]Judah[/name_m] [name_f]Theophile[/name_f] [name_m]Grey[/name_m] is starting to feel a little stale, but I can’t seem to find anything that compares.
@autumnreverie - thanks lady! [name_m]Love[/name_m] [name_m]Ivo[/name_m] and [name_m]Linden[/name_m]! Both feel more like middles for me, but I would be elated to meet a little one with either name.
