Research - The best Nameberry name

I have made this post 🎀 the best girl names! some time ago to see which names were mentioned or said the most. Rose was mentioned seven times by different users, for example. I wanted to do this research to see the most “loved” / popular Nameberry name.

It took me hours to do the research, collecting, alphabetical order exc also because there are different spellings for a same name (Evalina / Evelina) but here is the data!

Is your favourite name here? Do you like any of the names below?

Please note that when there are different spellings (Luella / Louella) there have been signed only the spellings that have been mentioned. Paisley is on the list, but Paisleigh isn’t because it hasn’t been mentioned.

Mentioned eight times

In detail: Rose has been mentioned seven times. Rosie has been mentioned once.

The winner is Rose / Rosie (with Rose being the main spelling / variant among the two), making it a good compromise for people here but becoming popular among the Berries!

Then Etta (the most used spelling among the three spelling / variants) with Etta being mentioned 4 times, Atta and Edda once.

Also Vivienne (with it being the most popular spelling) and variant spellings is very popular too!

Did you expect the result (s)? Or did you expect something else?

ooh, this was so interesting. [name_f]Rose[/name_f] doesn’t surprise me at all, but [name_f]Opal[/name_f] does a little - I know it’s well loved, but I didn’t realise it was quite so much of a top name. And [name_f]Ilaria[/name_f] being mentioned three times is both surprising and cool!

This is wonderful! I am not-so surprised at the abundance of names starting with a but the number of names that started with m was surprising.

I remember having [name_f]Adelaide[/name_f], [name_f]Alexandra[/name_f], [name_u]Artemis[/name_u], [name_u]Cleo[/name_u], [name_f]Clover[/name_f], [name_f]Daisy[/name_f], [name_f]Marigold[/name_f], [name_u]Nyx[/name_u], [name_f]Isolde[/name_f], [name_f]Victoria[/name_f], [name_f]Emerald[/name_f] (!), [name_f]Persephone[/name_f], [name_f]Maeve[/name_f], [name_f]Maud[/name_f] (e) and [name_f]Rose[/name_f] on my list. These are from ‘mentioned twice’ or more categories.

As for the ‘mentioned once’ category, I’m astonished so many names that I expected to flood the thread are there. [name_f]Anya[/name_f], [name_f]Felicity[/name_f], [name_f]Clementine[/name_f] and [name_f]Ada[/name_f] are examples. [name_f]Lovely[/name_f] to see [name_f]Emerence[/name_f]. In that category, I had [name_f]Astraea[/name_f], [name_f]Athena[/name_f], [name_f]Audrey[/name_f] / [name_f]Audra[/name_f], [name_f]Calista[/name_f], [name_f]Irene[/name_f], [name_f]Morrigan[/name_f], [name_u]Ruby[/name_u], [name_f]Wednesday[/name_f] and [name_f]Viatrix[/name_f]. This also made me realise how many names I had missed out on, adding them would make the list longer but they’re equally beautiful as some of the names I have mentioned: [name_f]Apolline[/name_f], [name_f]Fiona[/name_f], [name_f]Fleur[/name_f], [name_u]Hero[/name_u], [name_f]Isla[/name_f], [name_f]Lavender[/name_f], [name_f]Minerva[/name_f], [name_f]Saffron[/name_f], [name_f]Tallulah[/name_f] and [name_f]Verity[/name_f].


Thank you for doing this :heart:
