  1. I like Madeline and Julian. I used to have a list of names but then I stopped being excited for that.

  3. I love them! I love names that are "period" or older. I mean, I don't like names like Gladys or Paula or Edith. But I love the ones like you chose. The ones that are old but current. Like names of Royalty. You know what I mean?

    1. Exactly! Names like Gladys (lol I always laugh at that name), Paula and Edith are old names, but they aren't timeless. Like they're names that have become dated. I like names that have a long interesting history, but are still frequently used.

    2. YES. I love that …"names that have a long interesting history". That's such an interesting and true idea. That a name has a past. It's so heroic and romantic and story-bookish.
