Re: Names from all over the world
British, Irish, Scandinavian, French, Arabic, Hebrew, Latin, Greek, Spanish, Russian. British, Spanish, French, Hebrew, Latin, and Greek sound the most familiar culturally, I guess. I just like the sound of a lot Russian, Scandinavian, Irish, and Arabic names (some examples: Dmitri, Avdotya, Nadya, Lazar, Ingemar, Helga, Astrid, Ulrika, Ernst, Ivar, Gustav, Bergliot, Siobhan, Fiachra, Oisin, Grainne, Omar, Rasul, Ruya, Hadiya).I've noticed I tend to like popularity lists from France, Chile, and Israel more than most other countries.
(some names in the semi-recent top 100 of those that I like: Isidora, Amalia, Pascale, Magdalena, Camila, Dominga, Luciana, Noemi, Noga, Celeste, Renata, Martina, Agustin, Benjamin, Tomas, Jose, Lucas, Juan, Gabriel, Ignacio, Bruno, Daniel, Fernando, Carlos, David, Noah, Rodrigo, Camilo, Miguel, Isaac, Valentin, Fabian, Clemente, Hector, Salvador, Louis, Hugo, Robin, Marius, Tiago, Amir, Simon, Joseph, Timeo, Camille, Pauline, Faustine, Valentine, Apolline, Maya, Iris, Mathilde, Adele, Luna, Julia, Zoe, Mila, Jade, Louise, Noa, Ariel, Ester, Talia, Rivka, Miriam, Hadasa, Hadar, Dvora, Shoshana, Tzipora, Batsheva, Malachi, Nadav, Moshe, Noam).Mix in some more English and Greek to the above names, and that'd be fairly representative of what style I like.I don't hear names from most Asian or African countries/languages enough to really have an opinion on them.
