I have to take issue with your name definitions. Do you people actually believe all this culturally ignorant BS? I haven't even looked at them too carefully, but two of them popped out at me as totally invented.





* RYAN - Little king? King is Ri and beag is little in Gaelic, and Ryan comes from the name Mulryan. The origin of the name is disputed.


* ELIZABETH - Comes from the Biblical Elisheba and related to Isabella, Elspeth, etcetera. Just because it appears in its modern form in the legend of King Arthur doesn't mean it's Arthurian in origin.|||I like most of them to be honest! Especially Athan, Alexander, Isabella and Sophia!

:)|||The boys ones are all good, people seem to be less creative with boys, which I think is better. Boys names are more timeless- Alexander, Matthre, William- they will alwasy be at the top.





The girls, a nice mix of common names and some newer ones like Ava, Madison and Mia. I love the name Ava- but wouldnt use it now, there will be 5 in her class at aschool!





If I had to pick names from here for my babies it would be Jacob and Alexis (Lexi)
