Subconscious theme?

So my son’s names are [name_m]Arthur[/name_m] & [name_m]Hugo[/name_m] right?

I was thinking about the short forms, [name_m]Art[/name_m] & [name_m]Hugh[/name_m] (hue), both are terms relating to art which I find interesting as someone who loves art, I wonder if that played into a subconscious bias towards liking those names above the others. I wondered if any one else found a similar trend in the names they like most, preferably without intent?

Like maybe [name_f]Oriana[/name_f] for a geologist (ore) or [name_f]Astoria[/name_f] for an author (story), for an example, you can hear the relation to the interest but it’s not directly related.

Ooo, maybe [name_f]Penelope[/name_f] “Pen.”

Ooh, this is interesting!

I’m thinking maybe:

[name_f]Romilly[/name_f] ‘Romy / Roamy’ (as in, roaming, exploring)

[name_f]Ebba[/name_f] ‘Ebb’ (in relation to the sea)

[name_f]Francesca[/name_f] ‘Chessie’ (for [name_m]Chess[/name_m] players?)

I’ve always loved [name_m]Sterling[/name_m]. And this was long before I knew I’d wish to be a Silversmith :hammer_and_pick::gem: So maybe not a theme, because it’s just the one, but still
