What names have you recently started to like?

Hello!

What names have you recently started to "get into"? They don't need to be favorites, or on your list, but are there any new names you've recently grown affectionate of?

I get "phases" where I'm massively into a few names and I adore them, but they often fade after a while.

Here are some names I've recently fallen in love with:

¤ Cordelia and Cornelia ~

¤ Percival (Percy)

¤ Maxmillian

¤ Leonardo

List as many as you like, and give reasons if you can:)

BQ: What do you think of Cordelia, Leonardo, Maximilian and Percival?

:D

    I love the name Gideon at the moment, and I'm really liking Lucian and Lucius (despite the Harry Potter connotations!)

    I like Lillith and Ophelia for girls names too.

    I think I'll have to blame this website! So many people suggest great baby names!

    I love Leonardo and Maxmillian, but not so fond of Cordelia and Percival.

    I've started to like names like Madelyn/Madeleine and Elisabeth. Which is weird because I usually don't like the classic, common names. I like more uncommon & nature-inspired names. I've also recently started loving the names Jude & Levi for boys. They make great middle names.

    BQ ~ I love Leonardo & Maximilian. Not sure about Cordelia & Percival. If I used Leonardo & Maximilian I would shorten them to Leo & Max :)

    I also get phases!

    Recently, I have started loving-

    -Sofia

    -Maya

    -Macy

    -Amora/Amara

    -Lorenzo

    -Patrick

    -Cadence

    -Everett

    I know that some of them are overused and too common, but I really like Amora, Everett and Cadence[= I like all of them actuall. I would easily use all of those names to make a few first and middle combonations I really like. Macy Amora and Cadence Patrick... so cute[=

    BQ-

    I *love* Leonardo. With the nickname of Leon? So cute. It is adorable. Really, excellent choice.

    I prefer Maxwell to Maximillian. For some reason, this name seems to cutsy to me.

    Cordelia is very elegant and pretty, however it is too 'done up' for my taste. I prefer simple names. Cornelia is a name I just don't like 'Corn' just pops out at me[=

    Percival- It isn't my naming taste.

    I'll probably get shot because of these, I think they're definitely Guilty Pleasures.

    Bly [g] -- I used this for a story character a while ago, so may have asked a question 'bout it on here. I wouldn't use it, though, due to the fact that I can't imagine it on a real person.

    Nell [g] -- My mum works in a rest home, and there was a lovely, hilarious lady named Nellie who I became quite fond of. If I were to use it, it would be in honour of her; she passed away last year.

    Bjorn [b] -- (byorn) The name of one of the ABBA guys, I used to despise the name but it's been growing on me. I wouldn't use it, though.

    BQ;

    Cordelia is gorgeous. It's been growing on me, too. Feminine, elegant, timeless.

    Percival, to me, is more of a pet name, I guess. Percy is cute, but I'd never use it.

    Maximillian, again, has been growing on me, too. Handsome name, and I love the nickname "Max".

    Leonardo is great, though I prefer Leo, and reminds me of Da Vinci.

    =)

    I've recently began to fall in love with a few Shakespearean names!

    These are a few that have made their way onto my ever growing list recently;

    Lennox -This is my favourite name at the moment.

    Orlando

    Evander

    Malachi

    Tobias

    Dermot

    Beau

    Romeo

    Leonardo

    Alonso

    Roderigo

    Duke

    Ceius

    BQ: Leonardo - This is on my list too and I LOVE it! Leon is nice for short :)

    Maximilian - Love this too! Max is such a lovely name.

    Percival - Not so fond of this one if I'm honest, dislike Percy.

    Cordelia - I quite like this also!

    right now i love Carley i just would rather have a longer form so i have been like Scarlett!! and i love Lorenzo for a boy, NN Leo though we have out boys name already picked out. But it si a women's prerogative to change her mind right? so maybe my final boys name will change LOL

    Cordelia - its a nice name i never really thought of before i like that Lia could be a NN i might through this by DH LOL

    Leonardo- i love the NN Leo especially with Max as a NN for Maximilian. i think these are really cute brother names.

    Maximilian this is the name we have picked out for out next little one should it be a boy. that's y i like Lorenzo NN Leo as well. We have picked Maximillian Anthony as the full name.

    Percival i think Harry Potter immediately Percy Weasley!!! but that's not necessarily a bad thing!!!

    i don't understand why, yet i actually like Soren. Leo may be high quality as long because it fairly is short for Leonard/o Emmett's a powerful one, too. i admire Aurelia, Melody and Persephone. The others i do in contrast to lots.

    Keir (boy)

    Shira

    Meena

    Tegan (girl)

    I usually don't like names like these, I'm more of a Jacqueline-Genevieve-James-L ucas person.

    BQ: Cordelia reminds me of that b*tch from Buffy the Vampire Slayer

    Leonardo is a great name, makes me think of Leo DiCaprio

    Maximilian is one of my favorite names, I love the nickname Max

    Percival is a bit too Harry Potter for me
