That’s so cute! My little sisters won’t have any of my name “addiction” haha.
I love that Erin likes Keith and Ursula. Her top names are really nice though!

I was so surprised! I thought she might like trendy names but she has lovely taste, infact we like several of the same names!
Thats a shame π¦ sure you couldn’t squeeze out a top 5?
Erin wrote them all into a notebook alphabetical pages! It was very touching! It was like she got me!

Sometimes I try to get a few favourites out of them, and I did manage to get quite a list out of my 14-year-old sister a while ago. We had a lot of parallels! I’ll try and find the list… found it!
GIRLS: Lila, Olive, Winter, Lola, Sunday, Violet, Shiloh, June, Momo, Audrey, Edie, Amelie, Frankie, Matilda, Harlow, Lucia, Clementine, Iliah, Bluebell, Hetty, Frances, Mia, Zahara, Lotte, Ava and Isla.
BOYS: Moses, William, Elias, Roman, Maddox, Kai, Alfie, Harry, Orlando, Alexander, Sascha, Ryder, Romeo and Samuel.
I think she has a thing for celebrity baby names (Sunday, Violet, Shiloh, Matilda, Harlow, Bluebell, Zahara, Moses, Roman, Maddox, Ryder…)
Oh wait! There are more on the back of the sheet! Only girls’ names though. Sophia, Norah, Imogen, Daisy, Sylvie, Harper, Tiger, Nevis and Honey.
Let me know what you think.
My littlest sister always says “I dunno!” when I ask her what names she likes. I think she likes cute, light, girly names, though, like Sadie and Daisy. I’ll re-ask her when I see her π

And I just remembered my step-sister, who’s thirteen, told me some names she likes (she has very wacky taste in names) and they were Spike, Bear and Blue for boys and Rocket and Mars for girls.
