What you’ll find there: a new Name of the Day, featured Monday through Friday. These are free to view for any member – no charge at all, just sign up!
Paying members can access even more: naming advice and analysis, my answers to common conundrums, lists of favorites, and more.
Where do the featured Names of the Day come from?
You, actually.
Back in 2008 I feared that I’d never keep writing if I had to come up with the names myself. Happily, your suggestions have taken this blog into wild and weird directions, onomastically speaking. Thanks to you I’ve written about names I loved from the second I read the suggestion, names I fretted I’d find nothing to love about, and names that I just plain hadn’t heard of until your email landed in my inbox.
All that said, there are quite a few requests these days, and it can be a bit overwhelming.
Right now I’m focused on updating older posts. Some of these date back to 2008, so there’s a lot of work to be done!
If you’d like to request an update to an older post, please do!
And if you’d like to request something that I haven’t covered? Feel free to suggest it, and I’ll see if I can squeeze it in!
You can email your requests to appmtn (at) gmail (dot) com or use this form:
