So many classics! And some names that feel kind of made up (at least to me). Like Hearther and Hortensa. But it really goes to show that people have been creating new names for ages [name_f][/name_f]- the “trendy” “made up” names of today are not actually the first generation of unique names.

[name_f][/name_f]

[name_f]Indiana[/name_f], [name_f]Evangeline[/name_f] and [name_f]Mercedes[/name_f] surprised me! [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f] [name_f]Rosetta[/name_f] and [name_f]Genevieve[/name_f] [name_f]Hanna[/name_f] are stunning.
