I've been keeping track of the Telegraph names and have been surprised (but also not) by the Cosimas 😅😅
Random Chaos is (or could be) a choice....and yet, 135 babies have been called Random since the 70s in the US, so I kind of believe someone might 🤷
Love Della and Nella - also Estella (definitely a different vibe to Stella), Mozella, Noella, Mirabella and Luella for something longer. And I did meet a Gisella recently which has grown on me slightly :)
To me, Anthem reads much more political than musical! Shades of Ayn Rand.
I have found Ella boring for twenty plus years, and Bella and Stella have followed in those footsteps, but I do like Della. It's pretty and a little pastoral, and I like to picture her hanging out with little Luella in a meadow somewhere.
“Della Rose” was runner up on my name list for my June baby. Was hoping to use it for our next. We went with Violet, a favorite of mine since childhood. Crazy… I hope the name Della doesn’t become popular. I almost gave up on Violet because of its recent popularity. Delete this article now! Lol
I love this take on the “Ella” cluster. What’s interesting to me is how parents don’t really give up on a sound they love, they just shuffle within it (Ella, Bella, Stella, Della).

Yes, Anthem is very stirring!

Violet and Della would be beautiful sister names! Love the hidden flower connection 😊
Ooh, I like Anthem and Rye!

Totally - always the same but different! Same with -lyn and -lee names, and many more.
Exactly! Sound explosion!
