Realistic name choices...

Long time no..see?

So at work I have to ask people their names for their orders. 50 Saras, 30 Michelles, 60 Christinas or Chrissys or Christies. (those numbers are totally inaccurate but thats how it seems). Chris is probably the most popular guys name as well. Chris, Steve/Stephen or Jeff.

Then I met an Edward. I hadn't gotten an Edward! It got me thinking about names I actually like on people. I actually really like Edward on people. I really like Arthur too. I met a boy, he was maybe 10 named Kellan.

I guess it was just a funny realization. On people I probably wouldn't use Fox or Clover. But I would use Edward.

Any comments or name suggestions. how many of your "names list" names would you actually use? Like REALLY. ACTUALLY. USE!

Names from my list that I would really, actually use, for sure (at least at this moment):

William

Susanna
Camilla
May

For the other ones, I'm mostly worried that they're too plain (Jane, Margaret), or too much (Theodora, Verity).

i don't think margaret is too plain at all. and truthfully, jane isn't really, either. it has such great history behind it and it's so uncommon as a first name. i really like all of these names, except theodora (which is actually not that bad, but nms) and verity.
