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.

A Good Mix of Names

GIRLS


Auli'i - 

Cortie - this was the name of our waitress the other night. She said it was not short for anything nor was she aware of being named for someone or where it came from. Perhaps the parents just thought of this on their own? It's easy to speculate about a name's origin, coming from some other name. But in some instances the parents just think of a name spontaneously.

Daveigh - feminine form of Davy, a nickname for the Hebrew name David.

Fairuza


Mayim

Rhona




BOYS


Holliston

Policarpo

Skylan

Toran

Yale - name of a silent film child actor, Yale Boss.
