Wow! I love how vibrant and varied your list is, I like practically all of them :)

Escher is really interesting as I've never heard it before, it's like Fischer (which I like) but without the whole 'fish' connotation.

- Ismene (Madyson)

8/4/2019, 12:13 AM

Thank you! I like practically all of yours as well. I actually considered including Enid and Euphemia on my list this month.

Escher is a surname I’ve like for awhile, in reference to the artist M.C. Escher

I like the sound of Gwendal, and Rhydian would make a great name for a man of action in a fantasy world.

I also like Wolfram, Régis, and Uriah.

It nice to see another Alice and Anastasia lover. Both names seem to be getting more attention these days.

Where is your boy names list?

- Perrine (Destry) +1

8/1/2019, 1:18 PM

To be honest it's already very hard for me to find 10 girls names that I really like ;) With boys names it's even more difficult because I tend to be really picky so I haven't posted a top 10 in a long time for boys.

Out of the girls names I listed the only ones I like enough to use as a first name for a first daughter are Lily and Lilia (but I would probably use Lily on its own). For a second daughter it would most likely be Ayla (EYE-la) and Annabel, Alice or Kira would only ever be used if I had a third daughter.

I wouldn't use Gerda even though I really like it for someone else. Anastasia will be a middle name (I love the full name but can't warm up to any nicknames, I especially dislike Nastya/Nastia and Stacy) and Rosalia and Ilma are also potential middle names.

I like some names for boys such as Tiago, but something always ends up bothering me (for example I love the sound of Tiago but dislike the meaning). I will probably have to let my future husband inspire me somehow ;)

I asked for input and got some really nice suggestions but none I really like enough to replace Lily, Lilia or Ayla. For boys it is even harder, I do like lots of -o names such as Tiago, Otto, Carlo but not enough to use.

What about Milo or Zeno for a boy?
