        @bored I get unreasonably proud of myself whenever I remember how to pronounce that.

          Oh yes, add Niamh and Aislin/Aisling (which, homg, I heard someone on YouTube today call themselves Aislin EXCEPT PRONOUNCED ENTIRELY WRONG AND I WANTED TO REACH THROUGH THE SCREEN AND STRANGLE THEM)

          Saying the quiet parts out loud since 1996.

            I have seen Niamh on almost every game I have played. Arianna is a common too.

              I honestly forget that this isn't a common name. Niamh Cusack was a massive part of my Anglicized upbringing.

                I've used Jack so many times. It's just such a simple, solid name.

                I also tend to notice people using names I've used in the past before a lot, even if I wouldn't have noticed otherwise.

                Like, I will laser-focus on someone using Devlin immediately because I played a Devlin for so long.

                  This, a thousand times. Though I typically choose weird, historical, or otherwise esoteric names so they tend to stick out a bit anyway.

                        I feel like I must play on fairly different games than everyone else. The only ones so far this is true of for my experience are the Alexander/Alexandra-derivations group... I don't think I've EVER played with an IC Sabine, Salin, or Niamh.

                                      I know I remake +sheets and concepts a lot, but at least I use new names, PBs, and backgrounds (such as one can with a cloned sheet).
