HelpRe: The next big thing in naming trends?
in reply to a message by EvanslandCleve
I like word names that sound like names. Cherry was a sex worker in a book I read. The character was great, but... not in a way I'd name a child after. I'm very hesitant about any kind of food names. On the other hand, I love Cedar, Grey, Timber, Arbour, Valour, Wreath, Briar, Ridge, Paisley, Ibis, Lore, Lyric, Journey, Fable, Selah, Aster, Calix, Starling, Sorrel and Solace to name a few. Overall, I don't hate this trend. It's a matter of keeping it classy.

I also think of a book character there but I think of Cherry Valance in the book the Outsiders. Very cute but I’d prefer it as a name for something longer, maybe Charity or Charlize?
I also LOVE the name Cedar. I think of it as masculine.
Other names you’ve listed which are only list are Valour, Briar, Aster, and Sorrel. I have never seen Solace used as a name in English or thought of it but I like it. I’ve known a Briar, Paisley, and Sorrel in real life and think of them primarily as names before words. I do think all in your list are classy.

Thank you :D I also see Cedar working for a boy.
