I can't get on board with Myrtle! I can't get passed the Moaning Myrtle association from Harry Potter. Lol 😆

Abilene is really sweet but I can only think about Maybeline

Hear me out a hunger games themed baby name video? - I think they have such interesting names

We named our amazing baby boy Orrin after discovering the beautiful name in this video! A big thank you SJ! X

If you’ve ever watched the movie or read the book “The Help,” Aibileen is one of the main characters. She’s an incredible character and it’s a great story. Such a beautiful name and connection.

Hi baby name community! We have been avid watchers for the past 9 months. We welcomed our first child on Monday evening. We called him Magnus. 💛💚 X

The name Garland makes me immediately think of Judy Garland, perhaps that's why it's on so many lists?

Callyx reminds me of the Ikea Kallax unit that i can’t bloody stand 😂 I think Garland is lovely! ✨

Lathan is my brother-in-law's name! My husband's parents chose to go with an "L" theme for their kids, naming them Lance, Lauren, and Lathan. ♥ Very unique!

We had a surprise baby girl! We didn’t have a name going into delivery but after having three boys my husband gave me the gift of naming our daughter. We named her Wilhelmina Darling Rachel and we call her Willa. She is named after three grandmothers. Such a special name to us 💞

SJ’s voice calms me down so much😌

Said the name Abilene to my boyfriend and he turns to me and says “Maybe it’s Abilene” from the advert Maybe it’s maybeline and I couldn’t help but laugh and now I can’t unhear it 😭😂

Please could you do a video of beautiful less common names in Shakespeare's plays? Would love to see and thought you would come up with some amazing ones especially with your degree! Recently been really loving Puck and Titania and was wondering about some others....

Sequoia just reminds me so much of that moment in friends when Ross and Rachel are trying to decide their baby name 😂

YESS I JUST GOT A NOTIFICATION AND SCREAMED YES ITS BABY NAME MONDAY WOOPOPP lol like i really did 😂😂😂

I was wishing that my husband would love pepper for our daughter but he didn’t sadly! I think it’s so fun, quirky and “peppy” sounding! Another 2 I loved were Delta & Arland! 🤩🥰

Your energy is always so uplifting SJ!

Can you do another Scottish baby name list for boys and girls? We have first names picked out but need help with middle names !

When you happened to have left a comment about the name Jessamine a few weeks ago and now actually see the name getting the love it deserves 🥰 I’m obsessed

Oooh vintage botanical!! You are so amazing with all these cool creative genres of names 😍😍❤️❤️xxx

I love A-Z name lists! My favorite. Also, PLEASE do Roald Dahl names! 😍

SJ, I absolutely LOVE your podcast! I listened to them both consecutively and now I'm sad that I haven't any more. It's so entertaining to hear all the baby name discussions ❤️

i’m 20 weeks pregnant woth a baby boy and we’ve chosen Teddy Lee both are family names🥰 first name we both really loved too!

baby name Mondays are the best part of my week🥰 also i love the podcast and cant wait for more episodes to come out in the future x

Garland was my maiden name. Probably going to use it as my son’s middle name, if I have one 🥰

I love Abilene and Pepper. Callyx, Sequoia, and Terra are already on my list :) Here's my A-Z Vintage Botanical List: Anthea (flower)/Aven (white flower) Birch Cataleya (orchid) Demetria (mother of the land)/Delamere (forest by the sea) Escott (from the cottage near the stream) Fiori (flower)/Fielding Georgette (farmer) Holmes (from the island near the river) Ione (violet)/Iver (yew) Jorah (early rains) Kalika (rosebud) Lotus Meadow/Melia (work/tree nymph) Nola (magnolia flower) Oleander Penrose Quilla (Goddess of the Moon) Roosevelt (rise field) Sylvie (forest) Thistle Urvi (rivers, soil, heaven and earth) Violeta Whittaker (white flower) Xanthia (golden) Yvette (yew tree) Zamora (land) Thoughts?

Wow I love the sound of "Thee" on the end of Evanthe, you're literally the only person who gives me new names because I've done so much scavenging myself XD and I love the atmosphere you bring to your videos :D I actually love the name Pepper, mostly because I used to watch this kids show called Jane and The Dragon which had a character called Pepper and loved it! It was such a sweet programme and like nothing else I had ever watched (in design). It's on youtube if anyone has kids :)

Additionally I saw an interesting article recently with unusual botanical names that saw some popularity during the Edwardian era; I found it interesting that Snowdrop appeared several times, both as a first and as a middle. Myrtle was also a pretty popular choice too! The names that stuck out the most to me on the list were: Acacia Harriet Alice Rhoda Camellia Theresa Megri Claude Oak Clematis Mary Claire Elm Oliver Felix Ruby Ivy Narcissus Lavender Mignonette Linden Fritz Barnabas Marguerite Gertrude Mignonette Ethel Mignonette Verbena Myrtle Irene Poppy Doretta Primrose Henrietta Rosebud Helena Esther Snowdrop Gladys Una Lilian Veronica Dorothy Violet Lobelia But the most interesting I think were twin brothers named Gladiolus Bernard and Hyacinth Joseph!

Also Sj I love your podcast soo much please come out with more soon! I’ve watched your videos since I was 10 so I was soo happy when I heard you came out with a podcast! Keep up with the great work, your amazing and deserve all the love and support. God bless🤍

Love that you have a podcast now!

Yessssss 🙌🏻 I’ve been waiting for this list

Abilene: Billie Ivory: Rory Jessamine: Minnie Florens: Reece

ooh i love these!! One of my favourite names is Ardith, which means ‘flowering field’, with Edith getting quite popular Ardith would be a cool alternative!!

An American celebrity, Stassi Schroeder recently had a little girl named Hartford Charlie Rose. Love the name. Also loving your podcast!! Can’t wait for the next episode :)

i’m really loving the podcast!!

What a cool list. Zinnia is my favourite. I have these flowers growing in my garden and they are so so beautiful!

Sj, I love you and your videos so much.💕💕 I don’t know if Henrick has taught you any Swedish, but I was thinking it would be a fun bonus video if you try to say Swedish phrases with Henrik.

I am OBSESSED with your videos! I have no children and always felt like a weirdo for loving baby names. Thank you for starting this channel. I feel like I belong.

omg omg omg!!!! hartford is suchhhhh a pretty nameeeee! man im really in love with it! thnku sooooo much sj, just thnkuuuuuuuu, i lovveeee this name!!!!! eeeeeeeeeeeep!

Lathan really reminds me of my brother's name, Laith, which is Arabic and it means lion.

Had my baby boy February 17th Roman Wolf 💙

Kristen Bell and Dax Shepard have their youngest daughter called Delta

Love the name Nirvana! Maybe a little bit too out there for a first name but could definitely see myself using this one for a middle spot!

As someone who will be living in the UK it's so helpful hearing how you pronounce the names with your accent vs. how I might say it. There are a few names I liked until I heard them with my husband's accent and decided I couldn't have my family disagreeing on how they are pronounced.

Oh thank you for reminding me of the name Abilene! It's really lovely. I remember there was a character in the movie The Help with this name and I thought it was really great.

It’s baby name Tuesday for where I live. Great video, joted a few down that’s for sure.

Well my sweet little girl’s name finally made SJ’s list! I have a 2 year old, Delta Kathryn who is such a joy & definitely lives up to the profound name she’s been given. We picked her name for links to family but also because of the mathematical meaning of change hoping she will be a world changer!! Awesome name for a strong little lady!❤️

I know someone with Garland as a middlename! Jessamine was my great grandmother’s name! Plan on using it one day for my first daughter. ❤️ Also a variation on my name made the list! ❤️

i’m obsessed with garland !! like especially as an ode to judy garland. adding it to my list rn

Love Zinnia, so surprised it’s unranked. My name’s Matilda so I could do Roald Dahl the other way round (if that names sense) x

Tell me you’ve been watching SJ BabyName lists for too long without telling me. I just saw the word Whirlwind and thought “hm would that be cute in a middle spot?”😂💙

I love Jessamine! I've had it on my name list for a long time. I also especially like Zinnia, Woodrow, Delta, and Orrin.

How about Linnea- like the flower. I haven’t heard it in any baby name videos. I think it’s a good substitute for Lydia if you want something unique!

I love Edelweiss, Apricot, Mariposa, Merriweather, Lynn, Tulip (Tully for short), Tigerlilly, and Ponderosa for nature names

Loved your podcasts! For the woman who needed a GH name - I was thinking about Gaia as the first name. Still a soft sounding name but with the G at the front and I think Enzo and Gaia sounds really lovely together - maybe with something a bit random like Henriette or Harriette in the middle :)

I think this is my favourite list! 😍

Quigley! Like “Quigley Down Under”, I love it.💜

i love ivory and terra, such gorgeous names

I never would've thought of Nirvana as a name, but it sounds so lovely! Probably wouldn't work with the last name in my particular case, but I think it's beautiful!

You should do a video with teachers favorite rare names! Previous students names that they still love or names that they would love to have in their classroom someday 😍

Awe, the name Pepper makes me so happy! 💕 I know of two people named Orrin. One is an odd character on Parks & Rec, the other is my friend’s very odd husband.

There is a haunted mansion in Louisiana called The Myrtles so between moaning Myrtle and the haunted mansion it sounds so spooky! But the name itself is gorgeous

I am so unbelievably picky and I had to add lathan to my list. I love the way it sounds. We will see if it sticks and stays on my list

Azalea, tandy, primrose, petunia, dahlia, lilly, I think are just adorable botanical names

Interesting thing with Pepper is that in Scotland we are rhotic (pronounce our ‘r’s) so it’s a completely different word to Peppa. I don’t love Peppa - I actually really love Pepper with the ‘r’ produced at the end. So pretty!

Garland was my grandfather’s name. I’ve always thought it would be a special name to incorporate for a Christmastime baby. P.S. Love your channel, SJ! We just welcomed our first baby a couple weeks ago, and I watched SO many of your vids during pregnancy. We named him Nathan Russell. 💙

I love Abiline! It's beautiful!

I have a character named Abilene in one of my books! I fell in love with it when I discovered it.

Baby names monday makes me like mondays lot more 😊

I love the A-Z videos! 💜 My favorites were Valli & Yves!

We have a Basil - he almost got another name, but I am sooooo happy we went with it! Going really well with his brothers name Balthasar (who we call Balz)...

Sequoia is cool, although it’s the name of a holiday park in France where I went on holiday a few years ago so might be a bit odd to name my child that 😂

Oren (similar to Orrin) is one of my favorite boy names right now. Delta and Reed have been some of my favorites for a while, I hope they don’t become too popular in the next decade

The first way you pronounced Terra is the way my name is pronounced. My y makes the long e sound. I’ve never seen my name on a list of yours and was excited to hear just the pronunciation of my name even if it wasn’t the same spelling 😁

I’m sure I commented Quigley on one of your videos a while back! I got it from the surname of one of the classroom assistants that worked at my primary school. I think it’s just the right mix of cute and quirky where it could really work, similar to Franklin imo ☺️

I LOVE REED (naturally as I'm going with the R theme) but YVES is wonderful!

Fun fact, I randomly went by Terra for about 2 years in college. Never been called that before by any friends or family but I just decided to re-invent myself after a kinda tough time/breakup, and just corrected the teacher with the new name when the first day of school happened. It was fun while it lasted but eventually came back to Theresa as it just suited me much better. Felt nice to reclaim it for myself in the end. This is probably why I really prefer longer names with plenty of nickname options because you just never know what'll feel exactly right but at least you have a solid foundation to start with.

Eventhe I love it!

I love Pepper! I associate it with the characters in Marvel and Good Omens. I had a dog named Pyper so I personally can't use it, but I will always get excited about it and encourage others to use it.

👍 I think my favs are Callyx and Pepper, if I used Pepper in the future I think I'd double barrel it, making it the 2nd part of the double barrel name (if I could think of the prefect name to go first) (but they're my opinion for you) :) A-Z naming is a good challenge to do 👏

hahaha i always come to your videos for name ideas for my sims 😂🤭

I love your videos. Not naming a baby just love names and their meanings. I would love to watch a video on Bird baby names. :)

i forget it monday till i see sj in my sub box

Oh my goodness I love Ivory(Rory) and Sequoia!😍 Could you do a Native American name list, please? 😄

Abilene is also a city in Texas. We pronounce it like Ab.bil.lene.

Love Delta, Ivory, Reed & Woodrow

OMG !! I LOVE NIRVANA ! Not sure id use it as a first name as the amount of comments youd get from people would drive me crazy ....but id definitely use it in the middle spot! I love love love DELTA too but for the same reason couldnt use it as Delta is a famous singer here in Australia

Oren is a hebrew name that means pine tree I love it!! I also recently came across the name Quigley I don't know if I'd ever be brave enough but it's adorable!

I love the name Sequoia - always have loved the name. Another tree name I love which is also really unusual is Cedar

Ivory was my grandmother's name. I've always thought it was so beautiful and unique

Abilene was the name of a character in The Help, that's where I first heard it! Pepper is so cute, though yes, the Peppa Pig thing does put me off a bit...Iron Man's love interest is Pepper Potts I believe? (played by Gwyneth Paltrow). There's a Quigley in Series of Unfortunate Events - a triplet - Duncan, Quigley & Isadora. I've never seen Sequoia as a name! I LOVE that!

I love Myrtle! I love it so much that I made an excuse to you use it by calling my sister Myrtle whenever she complains (which is quite a lot as she's 13 😂). Such a fab name though!

I would love a list of names from Shakespeare’s plays. There are some great ones there!

AHHH!!! Quigley is my maiden name. It's SUCH a fun name. If I didn't have such a unique last name now, I would totally use Quigley

I love Love Ardith, Calyx , Orin, Pepper , Sequoia and Zinnia.

My friend is an Abilene! It’s also a city name in Kansas and Texas. It’s actually pronounced it with a short “a” sound (like the “a” in “Abby.”)

I love Jessamine, Abiline, Lathan.

For botanical names my crushes right now are Thyme such as the herb. And Zaire which means blossoming flower.

I was sold on ivory for a long time until my mum said about the pouching aspect of the name so we finally settled on Renée for my little lady who was born last month because I like very different names and my partner liked more genetic names so we compromised .. if it was completely down to me she would of been called Sunday !

In the netherlands we spell florens like floris as a boy name xx
