Concordia “Cordie” has been promoted to my shortlist after much deliberation, and I must say seeing her in a list of yours @readingreverie has given me the needed courage to do so! Thank you for posting about her!!

Edit: I have also added Aglaia “Aggie” today, as I was in desperate need of an “Aggie” name!

@mellona I love [name_f]Concordia[/name_f] “Cordie,” but I’m definitely biased as she’s one of my favorites
“Aggie” names are the best - my own favorite is [name_f]Agnes[/name_f]!
[name_m]Basil[/name_m] has officially been added to my “short” (cough…medium) list for boys!

[name_f]Gwen[/name_f] [name_f]Marigold[/name_f] is so pretty in an understated, simplistic/non-showy way! Like it really stands out without having to try (if you get what I mean!) I especially like it next to your [name_f]Melody[/name_f] [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] or even [name_f]Gwen[/name_f] [name_f]Marigold[/name_f] & [name_f]Josephine[/name_f] Melody/Josie [name_f]Melody[/name_f] or [name_f]Melanie[/name_f] [name_f]Josephine[/name_f]

I really don’t update my top 5 often. The negative part of being picky about my swaps is that I’ve had [name_m]Ivo[/name_m] sitting on there for awhile, even though I’m just really not sure that I would realistically use him anymore. Today I swapped [name_m]Ivo[/name_m] for [name_m]Truman[/name_m]! This was needlessly nervewracking but [name_m]Truman[/name_m] is so charming I’m happy to have him on the Ultra Short List

I totally get this, I usually update mine with current favorites, but it’s purely because I’m picky with my actual favorites. Like my dear Theodore!! I love him so much, he’s been my favorite name for years so he has to be #1, but…gah!!
Anyhow, enough about myself, [name_m]Truman[/name_m] is so unexpected and fun!!

What a coincidence! I was thinking today about how sweet the name [name_m]Truman[/name_m] is.

I don’t know why people never talk about [name_m]Truman[/name_m]! It’s such a great name, very [name_m]Truman[/name_m] Capote.
There was a [name_f]Berry[/name_f] that had sons called Trum@n and Lenn0n, and a daughter called Luc!lle, and I always that that was just the sweetest little collection of names.
