The very best of the alphabet!

Hi everyone!

So, I was going through my favourite names and I noticed a pattern, particularly with the girls…

Fleur
[name_f]Felicity[/name_f]
[name_f]Frances[/name_f]
[name_f]Francesca[/name_f]
[name_f]Faith[/name_f]
[name_f]Freya[/name_f]
[name_u]Finlay[/name_u]
[name_f]Farrah[/name_f]

So much of the letter ‘F’!!!

This led me to wonder if other Berries have found certain letters that they favor over others? So my question is, what letter do you see constantly appearing on your list? Bonus points if you can tell me what NEVER seems to appear. :slight_smile:

[name_f]Seraphine[/name_f]
[name_f]Suvi[/name_f]
[name_u]Sunny[/name_u]
[name_f]Scotia[/name_f]
Sitka

For boys it is A. I have 10 on my long list: [name_m]Adlai[/name_m], [name_m]Aesop[/name_m], [name_m]Alexei[/name_m], [name_f]Amber[/name_f], [name_m]Ambrose[/name_m], [name_m]Anthem[/name_m], [name_m]Artemas[/name_m], [name_u]Artisan[/name_u], [name_u]August[/name_u] and [name_u]Augustine[/name_u].

For girls it’s E closely followed by R. I have [name_f]Edith[/name_f], [name_f]Edwina[/name_f], [name_f]Elara[/name_f], [name_f]Elva[/name_f], [name_f]Elysia[/name_f], [name_f]Emerald[/name_f], [name_f]Emilia[/name_f], [name_f]Enid[/name_f], [name_f]Estella[/name_f], [name_f]Esther[/name_f], [name_f]Eudocia[/name_f] and [name_f]Eugenia[/name_f] on my list.

Names that never show up are U for both genders( I do love [name_f]Urbana[/name_f] but it’s unusable due to my location), Y for both genders, O and P for girls, and X and Z for boys.

[name_u]Marvel[/name_u]! [name_u]Mikko[/name_u]! So many M’s!

(outside of the usual uncommon letters) I don’t really love D names. I have [name_f]Dellen[/name_f] & [name_f]Dot[/name_f] on my list for girls, and that’s about where they end.

Oh, I love seeing another Méabh lover! It’s just the sweetest spelling. [name_f]My[/name_f] boyfriend will LOVE seeing [name_f]Mazie[/name_f] - it’s his #1 name, that exact spelling.

Also lately I’ve been digging C names for boys:

As for what never seems to appear on my list, I find with a couple notable exceptions ([name_f]Gwen[/name_f], [name_f]Guinevere[/name_f], [name_f]Gloria[/name_f]) I tend not to be a fan of G names, and I’m also not a huge fan of most D names or L names, though the ones I love, I really love. Oh, and Z names are hit or miss for me.
