Maybe it's the stress of TTC, or the fact that my husband hates most of my names, but I'm feeling the need to bulk up my own name list. I've been contemplating the same names for a while now, and some are beginning to feel stale.
So, if you're so inclined, inspire me by answering some or all of these questions:
1. Top boy and girl name you'd use right now
2. Top guilty pleasure names (girl & boy)
3. Favorite name you rarely or never hear on this board
4. What names you would suggest to me based on my current name list (link in sig)
5. What names you would choose from my current name list (boy & girl)
Thanks!!
Re: I'm jealous of MJ's name list...

4. What names you would suggest to me based on my current name list (link in sig)

You actually have some of my favorites in your name list: August, Arlo, and Ivy. Other favorites (commonly mentioned on here) are Rowan(boy) and Carys. One of my boy favorites I rarely see here is Lane.
I guess my guilty pleasure name is Rowan for a girl but I'd never actually use it.
