*BIRTH ANNOUNCEMENT*
Tobias Henry Aldridge
Born 28/12/22 💙
Been following you for years SJ and have now named my third and final baby 💙💙💙
Thank you for all your inspiration 😊 Lovely to have you back. Hope you're all doing well xxx
Ahhh Tobias Henry ❤️❤️❤️ what an amazing name and thanks so so much for sharing - made my day xxxxx
Love this name!💕
Congratulations 🎉 and Happy Birthday, Tobias!
Congratulations, and same birthday as me ❤
Cannot wait for cottagecore, whimsical goth and cyberpunk list!!
Cyberpunk! I’ll get my outfit ready too 🥰🥰❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Yes!
Loved this video SJ! Such a trendy aesthetic at the moment and my inner book nerd loved the meaning behind them! It’s made me think I’d LOVE to see a Shakespeare themed baby name Monday😍
Some ‘Light’ Academia names:
Girls: Odette, Sage, Palmer, Blair/Blaire, Felicity, Margot
Boys: Sutton, Spencer, Henry, Olivier, Darcy, Graham
We have a son named Spencer and just had our second son Darcy! So funny to see them both pop up on a list!
My little one's name Bram got an honourable mention ❤️ The Brontë sisters had a brother called Branwell which seems very fitting for this list!
Oh lush!! Such a gorgeous name ❤
I’m so glad you’re back, and hope you enjoyed your break!
I adore Rue, it’s one of my favourites because of the Hunger Game’s character (they seem to all fit the Dark Academia theme…) . It can also be short for Ruth meaning “friend”, and it means “street” in French.
I also adore Sybil, Elsinore, Winter, Bronte, Nyx, Ebony, and Solstice.
This list is so gorgeous!
Hey Alma; thanks so much! It’s such a great theme, yes love all those associations for Rue as well xxxx
Yay glad you’re back SJ, missed baby name Mondays 🤍🤍
Thanks so much Emma! Was a little needed break ❤ but back now!! Which is super nice xxxx
I missed these videos too, so glad you're back and can't wait to see your themes for this year x
@@bethantaylor3177 thanks Bethan xxxxx
This list is darkly cool! I love so many of names here! Casimir, Sybil, Skylar, Rue, Victor. Names like this just have that unique dark aura that spellbinds you and draws you in. So many of the names that we love from dark fiction are coming out and I love it!
Happy New Year! So glad to see you back doing Baby Name Monday. You have been missed. This list was fantastic. I know a few Winter/Wynter's all girls. I had a Wynter as a student (preschool) a couple years ago with an August birthday. Her mom's favorite season is winter, and with the way our summers have been, I am sure she was wishing it was winter when her child was born. It is such a beautiful name.
I also really enjoy the name Casimir. It's on my list as a middle spot if I ever have a boy (I have set initials to honor a family member).
My husband would add these names to the list: Shelley, Poe, Astrid, and Skadi/Skathi (we like the spelling with the d best).
Wow love Skadi ❤️ thanks for adding xxx
This is my favorite aesthetic! Thank you for making a video on it, I’ll be sure add these names to my list!
Ah I’m so happy Mari - it’s such an inspiring aesthetic x
The list I have been waiting for!! I gravitate towards to romantic/moody names with short nicknames ❤
Yes me too!!! Thanks for watching Amy xxx
Rue is also a nature or botanical name. It's an herb used for cooking and medicine so it can be a nature name. Rue also means "street" in French. Ruey is an uncommon French surname meaning small stream. So, if the "regret" meaning has you a bit hesitant to use the name, you can think of these meanings or use it as a nickname for Ruth, Ruby, Rudy, etc.
Glad you’re back! Trying to figure out a name for baby due in Feb this year.
Oh my goodness, this list was amazing! Would love to hear a Part 2, also inspired by Dark Academia and maybe even some cottagecore, fairy fantasy fusion🥰
Oh lush idea!!! I’ll research that xxx
Happy new year & welcome back SJ!! Love this list ❤
Uncertain if this correlates, but one name I recently came across (typically used for those who identify as female, but could be used for anyone) is the name Nephele (pronounced nef•uh•lee or nef•eh•lee). She was the Greek goddess of clouds and therefore the name means cloudy. To me, it caters not only to the physical climate associated with dark academia, but to the poetic and literary aura as well.
Always a pleasure to see a new video up 😌
Yes love that name so much! Thanks for adding and such a lovely message 🥰
My sister's name is Luthien, which is from Tolkien - it means Nightingale. I have always loved it! I feel it fits this list... Super rare too!
I’ve always loved how Cato and Sybil sounds in English as well as their meanings. Especially Sybil is a favourite of mine, but it doesn’t really work in Norway. Morgana is so pretty though and also Brontë, so I’ll put both on my list.
Also, I do recommend The Secret History. It’s such an interesting book!
Amazing list!!! 👏 I love love love dark academia names! Love Casimir, Rue, Boaz, Blaise, Soren, Sybil, Elsinore, Winter, Solstice, Morgana, Bronte, Nyx! So beautiful!! ❤🔥
Cato is actually quite a popular girls name in the Netherlands! Emphasis is on the o. It's a very cute name I think :)
Good to see you back. I like Casimir form this list.
Thanks Marty! Casimir is one of my faves xxx
What a fantastic list! 🤩 I would absolutely LOVE a Light Academia list. (Like Dark Academia, but...lighter 😂)
😂❤️❤️ I think romcom is this list!!! Xxxx
When I hear dark academia, the first name I think of is Dorian
Love these names SJ!
Slightly different themes but we had our twin boys Remy George and Forrest Alexander 8 weeks ago 💙💙
Oh wowwwww!!!! Such amazing names - give them a huge hug from me xxxx
I am so very glad that you are back posting names. I hope you and your family are well and had a lovely holiday season. I have long loved Boaz. It is one of my favorite underused Biblical names for a little boy.
I like Kardama but much more for a little girl.
I' would use Kara as the short form for Kardama. I know a very pretty and sweet little two year old girl called Skylar. Sybil , I have loved since I was watching Downtown Abbey. I think it has a genteel Edwardian cottage core feel to it I really like Devin . Here in America it is attractive but far from a fresh option. Bran is rakishly handsome as does Victor, which deserves greater use. Elsinore is just so very dreamy and deserves greater use. Yes, I would use Winter for a little girl if I could. But, I have a beautiful niece called Autumn, so I don't feel like that we can have cousins called Autumn and Winter. I would add Guinevere, Deirdre and Wednesday to this list. In fact I think Deirdre Winter would be quite a lovely name for a little girl. Very nicely done as usual. Thank you. Great to have you back.
Oh yes diedra winter would be so so pretty ❤ autumn is such a beautiful name xxxx
Love this list!😍 my husband and I are really hoping 2023 is the year we get pregnant with our miracle IVF baby🤞🏼 would love to see a list of baby names for miracle/IVF babies ☺️
Ahh I’ll be thinking of you and yes will get this list started xxxx
Mirabel/Mirabelle sounds like miracle and means wondrous beauty 😃
Mireya means miracle. I always liked that name, but my hubby didn't.
@@songpoetry1 LOVE this name! Never heard of it, but concidering it on my names list! ❤
I named my Daughter Mariliese Josette. She was an IUI baby after 3 years. Now I'm having another girl and need something to equal her.
Long time listener. Can’t wait to have a baby one day. I got a positive pregnancy test for 48 hours after our first month TTC. But it turned into a chemical pregnancy (pretty sure) 😢 but I’m surprisingly doing well! I got my period today a few days late and it’s painful BUT what I’m happy about is I think I could get pregnant again. So we’ll keep trying ❤❤❤❤ send all your baby dust this way xoxo - Lauren
Absolutely love this list SJ 💖
Ah thank you so much xxxx
Would love to see a video with some alternatives to fastest growing names and most popular names! I know you have done some but definitely my favourite 🙊
Yes I need to redo this theme; I love it too xxxx
Oh this video ending was precious, with the giggles and funny voice🥰😁🌷
My friend had a baby in September and named him Soren, and while it is pretty unusual here in the States, I think it is adorable!
It's lovely! Such a cool choice x
I'm sure its a lovely name in the states. In the UK it's a brand of malt loaf, so this may out people off due to the association.
Morgana! Yes...I love this and if I had a second it would go with my first, Georgia...
Love this list, we recently welcomed little Juno Martha Annie
Yey you're back 🥰 HNY!!
❤️ the theme. Faves are Boaz, Bran, Roux (spelt this way), Blaise, Pascal, Soren, Skylar, Solstice & Nixie.
Are you still planning a best 2022 books video? 😊😊😊
Yes I am!! I’m reading loads lately and even started a book club here with local mums! Xxx
BIRTH ANNOUNCEMENT 😊
On 12th December We had our first little girl after 4 boys and named her Evadne . We had originally decided , with the BNE communities help, to name her Evadne Seraphine Dove . My husband now thinks it sounds " too soft " or " too light" for her (in spite of the strong meaning of Seraphine) because she is a spirited fiesty one , hahaha . He is suggesting we go with Evadne Larkin Rune , which was the other name combo we were considering . Any thoughts/ suggestions ? Thanks so much , love your videos and have watched every one at least once . Wishing I had 5 more girls to give all the amazing names I've found through you.
Awww huge congratulations! I love both combos so so much. I think Evadne Seraphine Dove sounds amazing - nice balance of the N sounds 💖💖💖
Seraphine Dove is stunning! Sounds like a beautiful, strong women like Odette from Swan Princess💕 Larkin Rune is very cool! She sounds like a Katniss Everdeen! I think they’re both beautiful, and spirited! You can’t go wrong with either! What about mixing both, and coming up with something new like Calliope Lake😅
Cato and Rue are both names of characters in the Hunger Games!
Oh are they!! That fits so well ❤
i think this is my sign to use the name Casimir in a future book i’m planning to write because ever since i heard it the first time i’ve never stopped thinking about it!
SJ, your Australian accent is hilarious🤣. Casimir is a fav for me, it's meaning is interesting, I have read that it means both destroyer of peace AND bringer of peace, which is intriguing! I think Tadhg fits the dark academia theme, it means poet or philosopher.
Yes tadgh fits perfectly!! Xxxx
I loveeeee this list SJ!!! I have an Ezra and think Sybil would be such a perfect sister name for him!!! I also dig Bronte a lot and I love Elsinore and Nyx. Also dig Salem a lot too although not listed I feel like it goes with these too! ❤❤❤ so glad to see you back! Wishing Naomi all the love 💕
Ezra and Sybil would be an amazing combo! Xxx
@@SJ_Strum thank you for the comment! Big fan! And yesss Sybil is my top top choice for Ezras sister 👧!
Gave birth to my baby girl Luna Nightingale -surname) would love hear what you think! I've always loved the name Luna, and because her surname is long I wanted something short and sweet as a first name ❤️🌙
Oh wow it’s the most beautiful name ever ❤️❤️❤️ so perfect xxx
@@SJ_Strum aww thank you, delighted you like it 🥰
Congrats! Her name is GORGEOUS!!!!!❤
Could we do an Italian baby boy list? I remember you did an Italian girl one but not the boy one. Thank you ♥
If only I could have as many kids as names I love! Top picks are Brontë, Casimir and Boaz.
I would add 'Scholastica' to this list! It feels too clunky for me, but my husband loves it. She was the twin sister of Saint Benedict, who's one of my favourite saints.
When it is the shortest day of the year, I guess you just need to make your own sunshine. Your daughter is so golden and precious.
Ahhh thank you so much xxxz
okay intro editing ✨✨✨
I think Sappho would fit well on this list, the ancient Greek poetess. With Sophie being so popular it's a good alternative
Oooh a new one to me 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Morwenna, girls name meaning maiden of the sea
I love the name Morwenna!
Morgana makes me think of Morgiana (the g has more of a j sound so it is like Mor-jee-ana) that we've had on our list for a while. No real meaning as far as I know, but I'm a little worried about if she'd end up with the nickname Morg (again with like a j ending so like Morj).
Boaz is also a person in the Bible who helped save a family member by marrying her :). I think it’s a quite romantic name as well.
Especially because it was obvious that he felt she could do "better" in terms of looks and youth, and he admired her hard work, sacrifice and choice to leave her family of origin to follow her who she believed in.
Do you have a video about superhero names?
Does the name Bronwyn fit in with the Dark Academia?
Isn't the Winter Soltice is more often on 21st December ? (although occasionally 22nd)
Fun Fact; Cato was the Chinese manservant skilled in martial arts, in the Pink Panther films of yesteryear !!!
We've currently got an Evangeline and a Johannes with a second girl on the way. Any suggestions for girls' names to go with these? My husband had rejected everything I've mentioned and offered back nothing at all!
Gwendolyn might fit with your style.
Guinevere, Winifred, Odette
What about Marigold?
We just had our Katherine (Kit) Marlowe!
Not crazy out there or anything but we are obsessed with her name.
Oh wow I love it so much!! Huge congrats please give her a big hug from me xxxx
My all time favorite boy name is Ignatius with the nickname Ig, it means fiery one and it totally gives me dark academia vibes🖤
Oh yes I love that too! I love iggy as a nickname xx
I loved this list! Bran was a name I have loved for a while and I have never heard anyone mention it and never met anyone with it.
Morgana / Morganna is definitely definitely the best name here, IMO. I like Morgan, so Morgana from this list 👍
Love Rue,Boaz,Nyx
I think Thorsten would qualify for this list as well. It means " Thor's stone" , it's Danish. Dante would also be a great one for this list.
I'm having identical twin boys in June. Four names to choose. What do you all think of Alistair and Declan?
I have a daughter named Georgiana-- we generally call her Georgie.
Georgiana gives me victorian english vibes. So to me Alistair fits great but Declan doesn't fit to my mind. Maybe you can look to the austen and brontè works if you want to. BUT....the most important thing is that you and your partner like the name.
I'd like Alistair and Brandon for example.
@@MsKatastrophenBarbie Thank you for your thoughts! I so appreciate it! Declan is our favorite boy name at the moment. After commenting this I kept rethinking Alister. Partly because there are so many different spellings and also I don't like the nickname Al. What do you think of Torin to go with Declan?
Here is an absolute forgotten beauty for a girl, this was an old family name. She was a mother of two boys that grew up to be heroes! Sidonia. I love this unusual powerful yet elegant name for a girl. Please help bring this one back!
Elsinore is cute, I think Lenore would suit the thene also
I love this list and anything dark academia lol some more dark academia names
Vincent Varian Holmes Ciel Hawthorne Ichabod Sebastian Craven Ambrose Burton
Constance Lenore Prudence Enid Katerina Dahlia Agatha Victoria Emmeline Magnolia
These are lush 💛💛 thanks for adding to the list xxx
Morgana makes me think of the evil sorceress in King Arthur's legends
Odile (Black Swan name meaning prosperous in battle) 🖤
what do you think of the name Caeldori?
I adore the name Sybil! It’s probably my favorite name for a little girl. Unfortunately, my partner’s last name is Wright, and I’m not sure I could have a Sybil Wright 🤦♀️
My brothers name is similar to Cato, but Kado. Everyone always loves it lol
Yes I love Kado! So lush xx
I named my dog Cato after the hunger games, I love the name and think it’s an amazing boys name ❣️
Auraiya, is a city in India . How would I pronounce that properly to use as a name . I plan to name my daughter this
Fun fact: in aus we pronounce Bronte as bron-tee, I’d never heard of the bron-tay pronunciation before!
I LOVE Ebony and I feel it suits my brand new baby girl so much - but people have said it’s a category on “naughty” websites 😢
ew I don't even know why people's minds goes there when they hear that name, especially for a baby. And to not just think of it, but to say it out loud 🤢 so weird! For what it's worth, I really love the name Ebony 🖤
u should do names inspired by Taylor Swift now that she’s released Midnights 🤍

Planning for baby number 2 can any one recommend a sibling name for Emilia Wren, surname is Kent, if it was a boy we have the middle name picked already which would be Niall. TIA x
Super matchy, Milo? You'd have a Mia and a Milo.
@Ellie W thanks for the recommendation, Emilias nickname is actually Mimi but close. I like more unusual biblical names for boys like Ezra, Jude and Caleb. Girls I love the name Senna but stuck if it would go and a middle name for girls as I like more unusual names that are pretty but not too different. Like my daughters middle name Wren is stunning I don't know if I can compete with second child names 😂
My husband’s name is Brandon and I call him Bran!
Ah yes that’s a good long name for Bran! Xx
I really like the name Pia, but don’t know if I should name my baby that or name her Sophia and have Pia as a nickname … what do you think?
I love Pia too, but I'd use it as a short name for Serapia :)
Wow Serapia is beautiful! xx
Go with Pia!
As a veterinary nurse boas to me has. different meaning of brachycephalic obstructive airway syndrome 😅
I love Casimir and I would have gone with it, but for its meaning. Two contradictory meanings, actually, bringer of peace and destroyer of peace. I just can't name my my son this.
Boaz was a leading man in the book of Ruth; the grandfather of King David
I would also suggest:
Ambrosia
Andromeda
Cleo
Contessa
Odelia
Ottoline
Reverie
Seraphina
Ambrose
Augustus
Donovan
Drew
Edmund
Leonidas
Percival
Sylvan
So many lush names!! Xxxxx
Need help! Down to the wire and stuck between Holland Elise and Colette Elyse/Elise as names and have no idea what to do! My great-grandmother was a Dutch immigrant and I thought it would be cool to honor her. And I have always thought Colette was such a chic name. Dad is indifferent and not helping me choose! Thanks in advance ❤️
What about Cosette with nickname Cosy/Cozy? 🥰
I vote Holland. She can use Holly or Olly depending on her personality.
@@wachol3 thank you! We named her Holland Elise!
My cats name is Blaise ❤
Casimir is a Polish name and is pronounced Kaz-himir not Cas-imir. My mum is Polish and it's my cousins name!
Thanks so much for adding this info ❤
That’s my name
Poppy
Am I the only one that hears Morgana and thinks of the Goddess of death...
We're not reading the same Bible. 😆 Boaz is the man who married Ruth.
I thought the same thing😂
Oh!! I just read it up but sounds like you’d know better ❤️❤️❤️ thanks for adding xxxxx
Boaz is mentioned twice. One for the pillar during the reign of solomon and the other as ruths husband.
1 Kings 7:21 (ESV)
He set up the pillars at the vestibule of the temple. He set up the pillar on the south and called its name Jachin, and he set up the pillar on the north and called its name Boaz
