In 2014 I featured a series of blog posts introducing you to 2,014 names. For the most part they were names that were brand new to me as well. Some names may be more familiar but I found the meaning or origin or some other aspect of the name made it worthy of inclusion here. You may love some of the names, you may hate some, but hopefully you enjoy learning about all of them.

1142

That's how many names we still need to learn in 2014 to reach our goal of learning 2,014 new names this year. We are learning 6 names today so that means we have 1,136 names left to learn. It also means that we have now (with today's names) learned 878 new names in 2014.
