    Anyone else in the US hear a name, fall in love, say it (with an American accent), and get really sad that they don't sounds as good? It happens to me all the time!

    Completely off topic, but my mum got a pet fish for her birthday and I was supposed to name it. I’ve never felt so important. So, her name is Florentina and she’s blue and living her best life😂🧚🏻‍♀️

    The name we chose for my son that is due in July is Silvan. It's derived from Silvanus the Roman Deity of forests and fields. Would've been perfect for this list and is extremely uncommon.

    My older sister loves these kinda names for her kids so I clicked so fast 😍 they are trying for a new baby so she’s gonna need some ideas. She has a lily (Lillian) & Rosie (Rosalyn) & wants something a little more different but still related this time 🥰❤️ (she’s currently crushing on magnolia & calling her Nola)

    The pronounciation of Oskari is OS-kah-ree. A rule of thumb on Finnish names is that the weight is always on the first syllable, like in Tapio (TAH-pee-o) or Lumi (LOO-mee)

    I have a little Elowyn. I herd the name back in 2009 and fell in love with it. Just stuck with me and 9 years later I called my little girl it.

    Wonderful as always! Could you possibly create a video on Scottish/Gaelic names? We found it so difficult to know what others thought, when naming our Scotlish son (I'm Scottish and his Daddy is English 😊). I think our English relatives thought we were making names up when we suggested a few! I'd be so interested to see what you would choose! ❤️

      @@dammyjodger1 I love this :) Was very tempted to use "Saria" for a girl's name 😜.
      We ended up naming our son "Lochlan". We chose the Irish spelling because we were living in England at the time and didn't want everyone calling him "Lack-lin" if we went for the Scottish "Lachlan" spelling.
      My family are full of men called "James" and I didn't want to have yet another boy called James. Turns out Hamish is the Gaelic of James!

    I live in a valley on a 120 acre farm in the middle of nowhere and LOVE it. Not a city girl in the slightest. Super rare nature and country-living names are right up my alley. Elowen has been on my longlist for a decade. I hope it doesn’t get popular. I think you’ve made me fall in love with Merrivale, and even just Vale.
    Other “country-living” names on my longlists are things like..
    Girls:
    Meadow, Sparrow, Airy, Aloe, Amethyst, Aqua, Autumn, Azure, Azurine, Bluebell, Briar, Calluna, Cherry, Ciel, Clover, Dixie, Dove, Filly, Fleurie, Flora, Faedan, Ginger, Glenna, Genessee, Haven, Honey, Juniper, Laken, Lavender, Mahogany, Maple, Marigold, May, Maybelle, Morning, Mulberry, Orchid, Petunia, River, Serene, Sky, Skyra, Sorrel, Spring, Starling, Strawberry, Summer, Sunshine, Tulip, Violet, Vixen, Willow, Windy
    Boys:
    Autry, Barley, Bear, Crockett, Cypress, Dunn, Dusty, Field, Forest, Fox, Heath, Hickory, Leaf, Memphis, Oak, Ranger, Ridge, Rye, Sawyer, Scout, Shepherd, Shiloh, Sorrel, Sycamore, Twain...
    You should see the entirety of my longlists. 😅

    I actually really like Tapio. One of few pretty Finnish names (that actually sound Finnish) My mother is called Ann(E)lie, I think (Ann(A)lie is a much more common.
    What do you think about the name Ronja? The meaning of the name is clarity and brightness. It's a Kurdish name, but if you ask your husband about "Ronja Rövardotter" (Ronja the Robber's daughter) he knows the name for sure. One of the most famous Swedish children's books by Astrid Lingren.

  • @pflugerlicious33
    @pflugerlicious33 4 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I think a SPACE themed baby name list would be fun to see!
    I recently watched your video about twin names that are not super similar, but share some meaning. I saw you paired two names together that both mean "star". I think Luna (moon) and Stella (star) would also be a cute combination and both have a space/celestial theme!

    • @elisecollette1979
      @elisecollette1979 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      pflugerlicious Astra, Nova, Ayla (meaning halo or moonlight) & Celestial would be other cute girl names...
      Orion, Halo & Galileo (Leo for short) are the only boy names I could think of

      @pflugerlicious33 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Ellie Coco there’s also Astin, Sterling, or Moon for a boy (TH-camr Mr. Kate named her son Moon). Some other girl names are Venus (like Venus Williams the tennis player), Jupiter, or Halley (like the comet).

  • @tiffanygallaher7557

    I thought I'd contribute two unusual girls names that I love. Dimity is a name that is known in Australia - it is a lightweight, sheer cotton cloth used for dresses in the 18th and 19th century but I also read in a vintage children's book that it was a colloquial term for dusk or twilight. Loveday is a traditional English name from the original AngloSaxon Leofdaeg (Love Day) which was a day for settling disputes. Apparently it was given to children born on that day. It is still mainly in use in Cornwall. I love that meaning but also simply its association with love and daylight. My two cents!

  • @samanthah2226

  • @sashadawn1972
    @sashadawn1972 4 ปีที่แล้ว +11

    We’re naming our little girl due in September Rosemary Lovi- and now I love it even more knowing that the meaning means remembrance because we wanted a named close to my grandmothers name Rosalie who has passed away and was such a wonderful loving woman. And Lovi is also a family name passed down! So it’s perfect!

    Hello Sj!! I love your videos, though im nlt pregnant, nor naming a sim:) Meadow is gorgeous, and so are all the others! I was wondering if you could do maybe one of the following videos next: Updated Mythylogical names (Ariadne, Thaddeus, Caspian, Hector, Jacosta, Antigone, etc.) Spring inspired names (Orson, Auralia, Cria, Dawn, Fawn, Feyre, Feya, Aurora, etc.) Comforting sounding names (for this quarintine, like Comfort, Boo (means home, as you know), and Cosette, which can be shortemed to cozy) and futuristic sounding names (like Aerolynn, Saffia, and Caelix)
    Anyway, keep going!! You bring so much joy to mondays in these boring times!

  • @Trotin1991
    @Trotin1991 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    You could make a list of names from fantasy novels, if you haven't already? This video made me think of Amaranthine (which has its origins from a plant family/a colour), one of the main characters of a fantasy book called "Of Fire and Stars" (the other main character in that book being called Dennaleia), and I just thought fantasy names in general could make a really cool baby name list!

    I love the name Roisin, Irish for little rose. Also thought of the name Viola as a flower name.
    In the Netherlands we also know the name Etienne, but pronounce it as a-chen (like Jackie Chen).
    You said a name with the meaning remembrance, which made me think of my own name Monique, which means to remember or memory.

    He’s a pub lover and the fact that his baby’s name could have something to do with alcohol makes him laugh 😂

    @sleepytiger7248 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    I adore Berry that you mentioned as a nickname for Berisford. Roscoe is so strong and awesome!
    Ley meaning field/meadow, you could add it on they end of a lot of names to add the meaning 'field of', so you could have Daisley, Magnolie with lots of variations in spelling possible. Putting the sound 'aley' I think always makes names flow prettily e.g. you could make Myrtalea? I like Woodlea too!

  • @thisisditte737
    @thisisditte737 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    My name, Ditte, is very difficult to pronounce in any other language, than its origin; Danish. But I love it !💗
    Having a name that stands out is something you learn to appreciate with age.
    It is actually short or a nickname for Edith, but was made into an independant name in the last part of the 80's.
    My parents however, chose this because I was conceived in Cyprus; which is Aphrodite's island. Hence the Dite/Ditte.
    I think that's such a cute story☺
    Long comment, but I've been watching your videos a lot lately, as I'm due with our baby girl in 3 weeks😍😍
