Hey! Now as I promised, J!
J is a really cool letter. Especially because there are so many J names out there that are really pretty. Just look at the Duggars! Everyone in their family has a 'J' name! Some of my favorite names that start with J are: Joanna, James, Jill(ian), Jessica, Jonathan, and Joseph.
I recently looked up the name James at this website (It's where I get all my name info) and to my surprise, found that James was also a girls name! I was shocked at this because to me, James is a boy's name- and one of my favorites as well. It means supplanter.
Another name that I really like (and you all like as well judging by your comments) is Jill. It so sweet and simple! It's and English name and is a short form of Jillian.
Jessica and Joseph are such gorgeous names but they are very popular! Jessica is currently #78 in US Births while Joseph is ranked at #16 in US Births.
Joanna is also one of my favorite girls names. It's an English name which makes it all the more sweet and means God is Gracious. I love how it has a spiritual meaning too!
Another name I'm finding quite popular is Jadyn. It's not my favorite name, but some people make it work.
What are some of your favorite J names? I've know I've already asked you this, but maybe your names have changed since looking here or reading this post.

PS the next letter is A!

Cities and States- for names?
Hey! Today lets see what happens when a city/state name becomes a baby name- things get weird! For example, here you can guess 5 names of cities that are now kids' names. It's actually pretty cool and it's where I got most of the names in the pic above.
However it isn't like every name was totally predictable- I never knew people were naming kids Memphis! Living in Tennessee, this is especially weird for me! I love the name Savannah- even though it is the name of a city, I don't really mind it's just too cute! Charlotte (Charlotte, North Caroline) has especially become a popular name. I really like it though and the nickname, Charlie, is also very cute. As for Brooklyn, Dallas, Houston, and Madison (also last name of a president, more on that later) I'm not very fond of them. They sound too "city-like" to me and don't really seem like a kids name.
What's your opinion on these kids' names?

C
Hey!
Today, I think we all should turn our heads towards the letter C. I love this letter! It had some of the most gorgeous names like Caroline, Claire, Charlie, and Christopher.
I personally love the name Claire. It's simple but so glamourous that I can't help but love it. Claire is one of those gorgeous French names and means illustrious.
I also really like the name Charlie- for a boy. It's not that I dislike it for a girl, I think it's just more of a boy's name. It is an English name and means free man.
Cheyenne. This is a very difficult name for me because it's the name of a city. I'm not particularly found of having people named after a city but the fact that it's Native American totally makes up for it!
So now I ask you, how was this for a second post to the blog? What are your favorite and not-so-favorite names?

PS The next letter I will do will be J, do you have any J suggestions?

Bye for now,
