I don’t think Chesna is on here. It’s a Slavic girl name meaning “peace”.

Also, it would be nice if Ismena, Ismeria and Ismenia were added. They are Medieval names that would make lovely [name_u]Izzy[/name_u] alternatives to [name_f]Isabel[/name_f] today.

What happened to the boy page for [name_f]Indy[/name_f]? It used to exist, but it looks like it’s gone. I hope it comes back as I much prefer [name_f]Indy[/name_f] on a boy. I love the [name_u]Indiana[/name_u] [name_m]Jones[/name_m] connection.

My first name is TaylorRose (no space, no hyphen) and that’s how it is listed in the Social Security database. Definitely think it should be on here 
I’ve heard of people named [name_f]Tara[/name_f]-[name_f]Rose[/name_f], [name_f]Tayla[/name_f]-[name_f]Rose[/name_f] etc. so there might be a theme.

This is my name, I’ve seen it mean Ewe or [name_f]Doe[/name_f]
I’ve also only ever met two other people with this name, but they both spelt it Raeann
What’s the difference, you ask?
“Oh, it makes SUCH a difference. It LOOKS so much nicer. When you hear a name pronounced can’t you always see it in your mind, just as if it was printed out? I can; and A-n-n looks dreadful, but A-n-n-e looks so much more distinguished. If you’ll only call me [name_f]Anne[/name_f] spelled with an E I shall try to reconcile myself to not being called [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f].”
I read [name_f]Anne[/name_f] of [name_u]Green[/name_u] Gables in Middle school and it totally resonated with me we’re both red heads with over active imaginations that love our silent Es

[name_f]Maria[/name_f] for a boy since it’s been used in a lot of Catholic countries, but there isn’t even an option for it when you go to [name_f]Maria[/name_f]. Yet, one celebrity names their daughter [name_u]James[/name_u] and it immediately has a girl option…

[name_f]Alta[/name_f] is in Norse mythology is the name of one of the nine waves mothers of Hemigdar. [name_f]Alta[/name_f] is used in Scandinavian countries even though is far from popular it has a strong sound to it and if baby name [name_m]Atlas[/name_m] became so popular maybe we should give a chamce to this female mithological sibling
