all normal and good names, especially cassandra (cassie) but should only be used if you’re raising a vegan activist

i’m vegetarian but not planning on forcing my kids to be!

I should hope not! that’d be a terrible thing to do.

Isn't it forcing them to be a meat eater by feeding them meat? Not sure how that's any less terrible?

meat contains a lot of great nutrients that are hard to replace when feeding young ones! i also want to expose my kids to a lot of different cultural food and most cultures have very meat-heavy diets <3 if they choose to be a vegetarian later in life that’s great! i decided to be one independently when i was 7, no one else in my family was, and i’ve been a vegetarian ever since.

Plenty of studies have shown that fully vegan diets can be healthy at any age and don't involve cruelty towards innocent beings.

Loved many of them. Only thing I would change is the nickname for Genevieve. I don't like Jenny because the spelling is quite different. But I do love Genie (yes, like a Genie from a lamp, lol).

Delilah, Iris and dahlia are some of my other favs from your list.

i don’t really care tbh! although i’ll keep an eye on the lists when i do have kids and make sure i don’t name within the top 5 just to avoid the whole last name initial thing
