Name You Love You Never See Mentioned

[Jossina]

Do you have any names that you love but never see mentioned on MN?

I have a Dottie! Middle name Jean which I love (nearly hyphenated it!)

Daithi for a boy pronounced Dah hee
Francesca for a girl

Melanie and Claire

Dulcie is mentioned frequently on here.

@mildlymiffed yes RoWan is mentioned in almost every name thread on here. It’s pretty common now but not as common as the ubiquitous RoMan. Those 2 names have exploded in popularity the past 2 years. A few years ago they’d have been lovely names to use though. As they’ve come from nowhere and will be top 20 soon I think they will date and suddenly disappear and be this generation’s Keith or Darren

I agree the name Cole doesn’t get mentioned much on here and it’s a really nice name.

Agree Michael and Daniel don’t get mentioned much on here

Also names like Carol or Sally don’t get mentioned

Relatively popular names like Chloe also don’t seem to get mentioned much on MN for some reason

@MissHenty how funny! I'm back on MN after almost 3 years away! Its obviously become a trendy name in that time...!

@mildlymiffed welcome back ☺️
Yes has become a trendy name I would say, along with the likes of Arlo, Ezra, Grayson, they’ve all got very popular last few years. Wonder what the next lot of names to appear from nowhere will be x

I almost never see the following suggested: Ramona, Megan, Meredith, Hester, Faith, Solana, Leopold, Gregory, Otis, Quentin, Solomon, Magnus, Damian, Griffin, Emrys

@BigGlasses - I know a 3 year old Lorna. She's ace.

Not sure if they're mentioned on here or not but I've always liked Ursula and Magnolia.

Wilhelmina (girl)
Lorna (though I see a pp has mentioned it)
Ciara
Nel
Lyra (not often mentioned)
Joy

Anderson (boy)
Darren
Richard
Paul

I love Lennox too.
Also Bernadette. And Michael!
Love Rita, Wilhelmina, and Sally too.

Dinah and Beulah never get a mention.

Blakesley

Alison, Mary, Linda
Richard, Craig, Ian, Dennis

Germanic names,p; Christoffoson, Conrad etc.,

Neela and Joanne
Gary and Steve

Dorcas
Dulcie

Ceres. I knew an older lady with the name years ago and always thought it was beautiful

Wasn’t Michael votes the worst name ever on some site. Of course any name can be voted in any direction to be fair but I think many of the same ones appear over and over again. I think the full name Michael is far far far better than any of its nicknames - Mick, Mikey and Mike.

I associate Nicole with Falcon Crest. It’s the associations I suppose that date a name.

I love the name Hope but I read it’s associated with stillborn babies so understand why it isn’t popular although I think it’s a much nicer name than Nevaeh which is still used.

Laurent is commonly used, just not in the UK.

I like the name Lilian but sadly it has been overtaken by Lily used as a full name.

I like Samantha too. I wouldn’t use it and find it dated but there is something I really like about it.!

Lyra is mentioned often.
Conrad occasionally
Dorcas very occasionally
Dulcie is mentioned fairly often
Meredith is mentioned quite often
Chloe hardly gets mentioned even though it is very popular IRL.

I don't love any of those names. I liked Chloe a lot until everyone seemed to have one. Dorcas is nice. Conrad is ok.
Dulcie makes me think of seaweed and Meredith seems ugly. Lyra is too Philip Pullman.

I don't love them, but I notice that no one ever wants to call their daughters Joanne or Sally anymore. I adore Astrid, I'd love to have been an Astrid. Had I been I would definitely be long legged, blonde and deeply intellectual, rather than a shirt, rotund TOWIE fan.

Joanne and Sally are fine but the trend is for vowel heavy names and frilly names. Lots of the names have a v in them.

Ursula - I'm having to bear with the fact I never see it...

How can you bear it *msmith501). Arthur any other names you like?

I have suddenly developed a love for the Safiyah nn Saffy. Not one I’ve seen mentioned here much? It might not be MN approved
