What about names that mean “new” or “fresh start” for 2021? Since 2020 has not been the greatest, I’m sure many couples would really like something that would be new and refreshing.

I’m so happy to see my name on here, especially given I wasn’t such a fan of it growing up. Now I love it! Also love the meaning you have; it’s so special.

I am so active on the nameberry forums and have seen first hand how the traffic on their site around certain names is often indicative of names that will be trending within a few years time. So Hart may well be an up and comer. Similar to Hart for the girls side- Fawn, Faun, or Fauna. My aunt is Fawn Elizabeth and I've always thought her name was really lovely. I love how woodsy most of the names on this list are. I'm not a fan of things like Iclynn, Scotlynn, Irelynn, etc. but to each their own. The great thing about these lists is trying to provide options for many different tastes. Also I'm really happy I found these videos. Names have always been a special interest of mine and I love making name lists but never saw anyone doing it on KZread before you.
