Nameberry's favorite names, ranked choice edition [boys]

Boy Names
1

This is inspired by @ashthedreamer’s post, with the difference being that you are asked to share a list of your 25 favorite boys’ names and rank them in order of preference. If you struggle with that [name_f][/name_f]- I know I do [name_f][/name_f]- a rough ranking is fine.

[name_f][/name_f]

The name that is no 1. gets 25 ‘points’, no. 2 gets 24 and so on. If you don’t have 25 favorites, the number of points will be adjusted accordingly.

[name_f][/name_f]

This thread will be open for a week or so.

[name_f][/name_f]

Looking forward to the results!
