HelpRe: What are your favorites & least favorites from my list?
in reply to a message by HarderToBreathe
Girls:
Fave:
Veronica- one of my own top names that has a good chance of being used irl in the future. Strong and spunky but also endearing. Not overly used either
Lydia- classic but not overused. Rolls off the tongue well and iis just really sweet and cute
Alice- simple, sweet and kind sounding name.
Least fave:
Artemis- this looks like a boys name, and not even a nice boys name. Ugly sound and look.
Johanna- so dated to me
Nicoletta- for some reason this sounds tinny and hollow and reminds me of nicotine
Boys:
Fave:
Jude- also high on my list. It's just so cool. Its hard to find boys names that aren't too weird, aren't to common and sound strong. This name has all the good things. Short and strong and not overused.
Asher- this name makes me a little sad cause I love it with an American accent but it sounds lame and weak with my accent. I love the nn Ash.
Luke- I wouldn't use it because it's so popular but this is a good solid name. Again, short and strong.
Least fave:
Dimitri- this sounds like a vampire name, not to be used irl.
Ambrose- sounds girly and reminds me of ambrosia- a food not a name.
Linus- icky and creepy.
Special mention for names that make me happy someone else likes:
Persephone- total GP name for me. I'd love to see someone use it irl.
Jason- I never get a good response on this name on this board but I love the nn Jase
Walter- super cute and ready or a comeback.

Regarding Jason. I actually really like it. It's so handsome. When there have been threads about "What names are you sick of?" or "What names have you known a lot of people with?" I've always included Jason in my answer. That's because, it's true, I have known a lot of guys named Jason, and this has made me tired of the name. And I would never ever use it because of its former massive popularity. But when I can forget about that, I do really like the name and I can understand why it was so popular. It's the male equivalent of Sarah that way. I would advise anyone considering Jason and Sarah to avoid them because of their overuse, but it's not the names themselves. I don't know why you never get a good response about Jason, maybe just that everyone's sick of it.

Ambrosia to me is a dessert that is a combination of cream, fruity yoghurt, chocolate chuncks, fresh berries and marshmallows mixed together in a bit bowl. I guess our definitions of ambrosia are different but nonetheless it's a dessert not a name!
