Top 25 [Boys' Edition]

Boy Names
1

Hello everyone!

Several years ago I had similar threads up, but can’t be bothered to go find them, and I figure the more updated data would be more interesting to work with, anyway. I’m curious to see what Nameberry’s true favorite names are. I think we all tend to assume certain names are the favorites around here, but I wonder if that may not truly be true, and some of the data that [name_f]Pam[/name_f] and [name_f]Linda[/name_f] post about on the blog are more based on what names are looked up rather than what are true loves? I suspect that most of us aren’t really researching our favorites because they’re, well, already favorites! So I’m hoping you’ll indulge me by sharing your top 25 names (for boys here; I’ve already posted a separate thread for girls) and I’d like to compile the data to see what the results might show. Anyone in?

If you can’t come up with 25 names, that’s fine, but the closer you can get to 25, the more accurate the compiled data will be, I think.

I’ll post my own favorites in the comments below.

Thanks, everyone!

ETA: Hi everyone—I unexpectedly have a very crazy week and the time I thought I’d have to summarize data is now being spent doing a half a dozen other projects and meetings and such. So I’ll keep accepting submissions on these through Sunday. If anyone wants to share their favorites I will still accept them through 11/1 (1 November), and hope to have something posted by the end of next week as far as my findings go. My apologies for the delay—I’d hoped to have this pulled together much sooner than this!
