[Opinions] Cluster of names from a Channel's Fan Mail!
One of the farming YouTube channels I watch (White House on the Hill) recently aired an episode featuring fan mail. A lot of their viewers who send fan mail are farming kids and teenagers, but a few adults too. Many of them send drawings or similar items. I think the concept of fan mail tends to lean more toward young people, but it’s an age mix overall.
I wanted to share the lineup of names from the fan mail in this episode. Let me know what you think! I’ve included notes on age groups with indicators based on the mail.
Fan Mail Names
Henry (kid)
Gunnel (kid)
Casey (F, teen or adult)
Joanna (kid – I was happy to see this name!)
Hugh (unknown age)
Petey and Paige (engaged couple)
Rebecca (teen or young adult)

I also love that channel; I'm happy someone else here does, too! For girls, I'm loving Miriam, Rebecca, Hannah, Rachel, Lydia, Jennifer, Ada, Emily, Jessica, Joanna, Lynn, Matilda, Christina, and Paula! For the boy names, I'm loving Henry, Jack, Anthony, Daniel, Isaac, Oliver, Cade, and Brian!
I'm not a fan of Symphony, and find it hilarious that they mispronounced it as "Sympathy". I also dislike Ezra on a girl, but I think it's very handsome on a boy. I get why people use it as a girl name, but it doesn't sit well with me as a girl name.

Personally not a fan of:
Gunnel - especially for current day with the pronunciation
Brentley - prefer Bentley
Sage - I usually like nature/etc names but something puts me off Sage that I can't quite place. maybe overused
Lynn - filler name
Really on the fence for Laney, Dalen, Chason, Marin, and Remi though

I had a friend when I was younger named Joanna, at the time I thought it was an ‘old lady’ name but I can see the appeal.
I swear I know a couple named Brian and Jessica, I guess it’s probably a pretty common name duo for millennial couples.
Symphony is honestly kind of weird but then, Melody is a pretty commonish name. Anyway it’s better than Sympathy haha.
