Any names and all names!!
Your faves, ones youve just stumbled across, the names of the kids down the street - I need inspiration!!
Dont get me wrong, I love my Notes App lists of names, but it hasnt changed in forever! I need to find me some new loves. Guilty Pleasures or names Id actually use, ANYTHING
I’m so starved of new names (is that a thing?)
Please and Thank you!!

Today I learned that my sister knows two sets of twins girls where one twin is called [name_f]Freja[/name_f]! So there’s [name_f]Freja[/name_f] & H@dley and [name_f]Freja[/name_f] and Bl@keley. One set has a brother named [name_m]Logan[/name_m] and the other an [name_m]Elijah[/name_m].
I found the name Theodenanda in a list of medieval names recently and I adore how grand and theatrical it is. You might enjoy looking through it? dmnes.org

I’ve been dying to post my name sightings from last week so I’ll just reply with them here!
in a class for 4-6 year olds were…
[name_m]Erich[/name_m]
[name_f]Emma[/name_f]
[name_m]Callum[/name_m] (!)
[name_f]Cora[/name_f]
[name_f]Isla[/name_f]
[name_m]Leo[/name_m]
[name_m]Ozzy[/name_m] (!)
[name_f]Palmer[/name_f] x2
[name_f]Reese[/name_f]
[name_f]Sailor[/name_f] (!)
it was such a fun little list to see! It reinforced to me that people are truly moving away from the common names and toward some more fun choices
that same day I also met a teenager named [name_f]Dove[/name_f] (!) and a few days later a young girl named [name_f]Fiona[/name_f]! the name nerd in me was on cloud nine
