HelpRe: Sister Names for Ramona
in reply to a message by mirfak
I was not aware that there was a rating's feature. How exactly are names rated on here? I can't say that I've ever even noticed that. I get really swept up in the origins, the spelling variations, the meanings to the names, and the polls that I think I've just completely overlooked that feature.
Do ratings have anything to do with how the name is perceived based on characteristics?
I will look into this further. Thank you for sharing that.
In regards to the names you shared though, I love Raquel. I knew a Raquel once. She was a jazzy lady. I definitely added Raquel to the list, along with Astrid, Margot, Carmen, and Gillian.
I love the name Vivian, but I have a rule about not using names that I am considering using for a baby (if I have one). Vivian's on my short list technically,... as Vivienne. ... Great pick. I'm really in love with it.

That is exactly what the ratings feature is for. You can rate names on a scale. The results are shown for any name (as long as there is a ratings link on the right hand side), and it will list how many people have rated it at the bottom.
BtN then matches other names that rate similar. When you open the link for ratings, there is another link for similarly rated names and it will tell you names that are 9% in variance, 12%, etc.
Example:
the name Heidi was rated by 244 people. The results of that are similar to the names Holly and Bonnie (9% variance).
