Master List of Favorites A-Z

A giant compilation of all my favorite names throughout the years including guilty pleasures and names that I would never consider nowadays. Clearly I have a soft spot for girl names

Fidelity is an admirable virtue, yes, but as a name it tends to sound like a financial institution.  Faith, Honor, or Patience would be easier to live with than Fidelity. 

Fidelity

More unusual than Forest or Forrest, Field is a nature name that is simple, evocative, and fresh--sort of the male equivalent of Meadow.
Field and Fields are both relatively common surnames, noted bearers including department store owner Marshall Field, poet Eugene Field (Wynken, Blynken and Nod) and actress Sally. Those with the plural include W.C. Fields, cookie company founder Debbi, and entertainers Gracie and Kim Fields.
 Fielding is a very usable extension.

Field

Even if you're hoping for a fiery child, this seems like playing with fire. One celebrity--Steve Vai--was bold enough to use it for his son.

Fire

Beware: Flame is the kind of name used by women named Fran when engaging in endeavors they'd just as soon their parents weren't aware of. 

Flame

Lacks the cachet of some newer place-names. 

Florida

Fortitude is the kind of virtue name the Puritans favored that could feel rather heavy for a modern boy. Nevertheless, with options such as Sincere, Chosen, Messiah, and Valor on the rise, perhaps in coming years, it might not seem so hefty after all, though for now, we think it would be best reserved for the middle spot. 

Fortitude

Funky, boyish, old-style combo name chosen for their daughter by hip couple Donna D'Ericco and Nikki Sixx.

Frankie-jean

A sixties-style name that might work best as a middle.

Free

Frisco is a frisky, roguish semi-place-name (San Francisco natives never call it that) that could make a lively, unusual o-ending choice. 
 Frisco is the kind of nickname name sometimes used for cowboy characters in Westerns.

Frisco

Like Mitzi, the bubbly Fritzi shows signs of rising again. Has a bit of a comic-strip feel.

Fritzi

Fans of the classic French film actor Jean Gabin might want to consider this one. Gabin is also a harmonica-playing character in the manga and anime series "Mirmo!"

Gabin

Spanish for galaxy, this larger-than-life name would make a bold but beautiful choice for girl.

Galaxia

Occasionally used in the African-American community to honor Jamaican activist Marcus Garvey, known as "Emperor of the Kingdom of Africa," though his first name is more frequently chosen. Another possible namesake is baseball player Steve Garvey. Garvey sounds more modern than Harvey. 
 
Variations include Garrvey, Garrvie, Garvie, and Garvy.

Garvey

Commonly used in Japan, and so much more distinguished than Jen. 

Georg is a masculine name representing the Germanic and Scandinavian form of George, ultimately derived from the Greek name Georgios (Γεώργιος), meaning "farmer" or "earth-worker" from the elements "ge" (earth) and "ergon" (work). This variant has been particularly popular in German-speaking countries, the Nordic nations, and parts of Eastern Europe for centuries. Notable bearers include composer Georg Friedrich Händel, mathematician Georg Cantor, and physicist Georg Ohm. Unlike the English George, Georg is typically pronounced with a hard 'g' sound at the end (gay-org). While relatively uncommon in English-speaking countries, the name maintains steady popularity in Germany, Austria, and Scandinavian countries, where it is appreciated for its classic, dignified character and cultural heritage.

Georg

Sometimes heard as a first name in Scotland, particularly among the Campbell clan. 

Gillespie

An undiscovered place-name with an appealing o-sound ending. 

Glasgow

There's a whole quarry of rocky names parents are now considering: Slate, Flint, etc. , but this one is particularly hard-edged and problematic. 

Granite

Middle name possibility for a nature-loving family -- Uma Thurman and Ethan Hawke used it for their son's middle name. 

Green

If you find Grover too fusty and furry, this is a much cooler-sounding alternative.
