A Look Back At The Art of Naming's 2015 - A Year End Summary

We're at the end of the year 2015. Before we step into 2016, let's take a moment to look back at the names and articles we've discussed this year.

The main name series of the year took us on an alphabetical adventure. The plan was to fit all 26 letters into 12 months but it was a bit too jam-packed. As a result, the letter Z has been stretched out to March, but we have been able to explore most of the letters already. Below are all of the available links to view the Top 50 names per letter according to The Art of Naming:

A | B | C D E | F | G | H | I | J K | L | M N | O | P | Q | R | S | T | U | V | W | X | Y | Z

The featured name articles that have accompanied the alphabetical posts were originally meant to complement each other as if they were part of a big sibset of 26 kids from A-Z but there may be a few outliers that don't quite "fit" in the traditional sense of what one may perceive a sibset to be. Here are links to those articles:

The letters V-Z will be arriving shortly. I hope you've enjoyed this series so far.

Also in 2015, we explored the following name lists:

As always, if you are expecting a child soon and find yourself at a loss for names, I have naming services available to help you! You can visit my Private Naming Services page to learn more about how I can help you find the perfect name in a professional, private and personalized manner.


Thank you for following my articles this year. Next year will bring several new series of name articles. I look forward to sharing more names with you in 2016 and beyond!

Happy New Year!

The Power of Names: More Than Just a Label

Names hold immense significance, serving as the foundation of identity and the thread that connects individuals to their heritage, culture, and personal narrative.  They are much more than mere labels or a series of letters—names carry the weight of familial history, traditions, values, and aspirations. A name is often the first gift a person receives from their parents, imbued with love, dreams, and hopes for the future.  But why are names so important? The answer lies in their profound influence on our personal lives, social interactions, and how we navigate the world. A Symbol of Connection and Heritage A name anchors us in the rich tapestry of human experience, linking us to our ancestors and culture. Whether passed down through generations or chosen for its meaning, a name can reflect family history or cultural significance, often serving as a bridge between the past and the present. In many cultures, names are chosen with deep thought and purpose, conveying the hopes of ...

Colonial Names for Boys and Girls

The Freake Limner (American Colonial Era Painter, active 1670-c 1680) Mrs Elizabeth Freake and Baby Mary 1674 British Colonial America was a very important time in our history. They are the ones that started it all with a sense of freedom and independence. The ones who made the voyage over were discovering a whole new land and developing their own rules in their own new towns. They also had some interesting names, some of which you don't hear often today, and others that might just be cool enough to actually use again. These names were popular in colonial times, taken straight from the 18th century! Some of these overlap with the Biblical names list, and they seem to be much different than the names popular in England during the Victorian era.
