Names you forgot about..but love?

Anyone else have a name (or names) that you love but when it came to naming your kids you completely forgot about it?

Mine is [name_f]Colleen[/name_f]. I [name_u]LOVE[/name_u] this name…yet with all three pregnancies it never even went on the list. Another one is [name_f]Lilia[/name_f]. Never even considered it, but love the name!!

It’s funny you made this thread because just a few days ago I found my very first “favorite names list.” I made it when I was 14 or 15 and I completely forgot about some of the names. One of them was [name_u]Rory[/name_u]. I was so dead set on naming my first son [name_u]Rory[/name_u] [name_m]Sebastian[/name_m], but nowadays it’s nowhere near the top on my list. I still love it though.

I just fell in love (again) with [name_f]Eleanor[/name_f]. It’s my current favorite!

[name_m]Ezra[/name_m]. I was so dead set on [name_m]Ezra[/name_m] [name_m]Francisco[/name_m] a few years back. But not [name_m]Ezra[/name_m] feels bland.

I just rediscovered [name_u]Sasha[/name_u] and [name_f]Bianca[/name_f]. I’ve never met any Sashas or Biancas and I always loved the names. Short, easy to spell and pronounce and no obvious nicknames (I hate nicknames)!

I was even more thrilled when I brought up [name_u]Sasha[/name_u] to my husband and he liked it as well! I haven’t brought up [name_f]Bianca[/name_f] yet. :slight_smile:

[name_u]Sasha[/name_u] was #428 last year – peaked at #147 in 1988.
[name_f]Bianca[/name_f] was #302 last year – peaked at #84 in 1990.
