Introduction

Hello there! Well, as you may have noticed...this is a blog about names. Last night, I was adding yet another name to my favorite names list, realizing once again that I would never have enough children to use said favorite names on, and feeling quite sorrowful that such lovely names would go to waste - unnoticed and unappreciated!
Hence, a blog discussing and appreciating beautiful names.
I wanted to share a list of my favorite names. Names that I have heard and thought to myself, "Ooh! What a lovely ring that has to it! But..I don't quite like the spelling. Alrighty then, I shall change it!". Or names which I have read in a book and said, "Wow! What a beautiful-looking name! How would it sound paired with this one?". And so on.
But, as I thought about this idea, I realized that simply posting my favorite names would be, quite obviously, too insubstantial for an entire blog. Therefore, I came to the conclusion that it would be fun to also include more traditional or common names and their meanings and origins. It would be interesting and educational for myself, as well as any who may read my blog!
Well, now that I have explained the purpose of this blog, I shall move on to the first "name post". :)
