Found this list and thought there were some really interesting possibilities!
Are there any names here you would use?

Use? Probably not. But I’m intrigued by the following
Adestan
Aistan
Aldelin
Bosker (too close to busker to be usable, I think)
Costelin
Fredmund (so exaggeratedly clunky it almost works)
Kenting
Ravelin
Sanctan
Sperling
Theodard (interesting way to get to [name_u]Theo[/name_u])
Tysilio
Wistan
Admiranda
Aileva (possible phonetic similarity to [name_f]Olivia[/name_f]?)
Alviva
Amphelisia
Aveza
Belisent (Appellation Mountain profiled this one)
Clariandra
Elysant
Endelyn
Estrild
Gisla
Jolicia
Liveva
Mazelina
Merewen
Merild
[name_f]Odelina[/name_f]
[name_f]Orabel[/name_f]
Oriolda
Pavie
Rametta
Sabelina
Salerna
Sativola
Sely
I’m not sure I would use any but these are kind of cute:
Adestan
Aistan
Bosten – A phonetic version of [name_m]Boston[/name_m]?
Costelin – Maybe a middle name?
Hasten
Kenting
Ludric
Aileva
Endelyn
Estrild
Imedia
Mazelina
Merild
Sabelina
Ysoria
I think I might be able to use Bosten, but hubby would cringe if I even mentioned it
Sound interesting, but I wouldn’t use any of these, I think.
I think a couple, like Merewen, are totally usable. Personally, I like Gisla, Liveva, Mazelina, Sabelina, and [name_f]Odelina[/name_f]. And while I wouldn’t use Ysoria and Tysilio, I do think they’re awesome.
Adestan - interesting “downdate” of [name_u]Addison[/name_u]
Landric - I like this a lot actually! Vibes of [name_m]Landon[/name_m]/[name_m]Lance[/name_m]/[name_m]Alaric[/name_m]/etc. cool name!
Selevan - sorta [name_u]Sullivan[/name_u] meets [name_m]Silvan[/name_m], though it sounds worryingly like sell-a-van
Sperling -too “spermy”? I don’t know, but it’s interesting
Sperun - like a smoosh of [name_u]Spencer[/name_u] and [name_m]Aaron[/name_m], “spare one”
Belisent - [name_f]Bellatrix[/name_f] meets [name_f]Millicent[/name_f]. I kinda like it!
Clariandra - very beautiful actually, maybe too fussy though
Endelyn - looks a bit like [name_f]Gwendolyn[/name_f] lost her first 2 letters. I prefer it to [name_f]Endellion[/name_f] actually.
Mazelina - [name_f]Mazarine[/name_f] and [name_f]Hazel[/name_f] and [name_f]Angelina[/name_f], I think Mazeline would be my preference, but then it looks like a [name_f]Madeline[/name_f] and [name_f]Maisie[/name_f] mash up.
Merewen - very pretty actually, I like it!
Thaney - cute nn, I’ve like [name_m]Thane[/name_m] as a boy mn. Sorta looks like a Puritan used Thankful and wanted a cute nn.
Maybe for a character, but not for a child.
I kind of like:
Adestan
Alcmund
Aldelin
Ceidio
Deorstan
Hasten
Olthin
Ravelin
Belisent
Edild
Elysant
Estrild
Merewen
Merild
Ysoria
Those are the ones I like too. Well maybe not Gisla or Liveva…
I’ve went through that list before and I would consider the majority of the names unusable. The only one I somewhat like is [name_f]Odelina[/name_f].
Quirky names, but no I wouldn’t use any of them. I didn’t mind Merewen, but I disliked all the rest.
