[@hannahsloan5678]

I can't tell you how filled with joy we are to have BNMs back and how brave you are! We had a little girl called October Fable Sloan🐰✨☁️ xxxx

[@SJ_Strum]

Oh woww!! What a stunning name / I’m so happy to hear about her. Huge congrats xxxxxxxxxx

[@jordantaylor8614]

Im OBSESSED! Incredible name mom! Congratulations 🎉

[@dandare2586]

Mrs Dan Dare here just to send some love ❤️

[@kates4455]

Wow amazing name 🥰 x

[@sfrancies87]

Love this name! Congrats.

[@sarahbethnorthington8749]

I can only imagine how challenging this milestone is in your grief process SJ, but this video brought such a smile to my face! I LOVE these videos from you!

[@SJ_Strum]

Thanks so much sarah - I did grasp my moment to film but I’m so happy I did. It’s so lovely to hear from you and everyone again 😊

[@mcedwards]

So proud of you for posting this. I can only imagine how hard it was to pick this series back up again but I'm so excited to watch.

[@SJ_Strum]

Thanks so much; it’s only been 4 months since losing Naomi and I still feel super foggy and lost a bit but this is honestly so nice now it’s posted!! I feel so happy to hear from everyone in a normal nice way 😊

[@Louisepentland]

Welcome Back! Love you so much and I'm glad you took the plunge and uploaded. A BN list I'd love to see would be Christmas themed names for people having December time babies xxx

[@SJ_Strum]

Definitely! My Christmas baby evelina is so excited for winter!

[@Alfacat06]

I have a Liberty that we call Bertie! So lovely to watch one of these again. A huge well done for doing it ❤

[@KmarieKnockOut]

I know two more Liberty “Bertie’s” and I think that’s the best long form of the nickname ❤

[@rachaeljelley5365]

Liberty for bestie is on my list! So beautiful!

[@kendallmoore9256]

Words cannot express how happy I am to see you back again. I know this is a very hard hurdle for you to cross and I’m so proud of you for doing it. I hope you know that these videos bring smiles to so many faces and you are a constant ray of sunshine, so thank you for coming back again, Naomi would be so proud of you. ❤❤❤

[@SJ_Strum]

Thanks so much Kendall; I have a really happy feeling tonight that she’s proud of me continuing our little baby name corner of the internet. She loved it so much, we always said it was our favourite thing to do and I’m so happy to see people back for it too xxxx

[@melaniemoul]

We had Abigail Juniper Elise in January and I’m surprised how much I call her Abigail over Abby. I think the long name has that quiet luxury feeling 😊

[@SJ_Strum]

Omg that is a DREAM name!!!!!! Wow I love it ❤❤❤ so happy for you x

[@kayleighspencer-tonks5382]

I've followed you from day one (or almost day 1!) And you have helped me name both of my boys. This must've been so challenging for you, you should be so proud of yourself. Your sister would be proud too. Its so lovely to have you back. I'm not pregnant or on the hunt for any specific name but still love watching your videos, I love the names ❤️

[@SJ_Strum]

Thanks so much Kayleigh; it’s definitely been the worst 4 months of my life so far; but I do know naomi would be devastated it I should say “livid” in her words 😂 had I thrown it all away, I know I love this and will bring her along with me. Thanks so so much for taking the Time to message xxx

[@amyjoydiehl7917]

My heart goes out to you, SJ. Returning to BNM must be tough but so proud of you for uploading. No pressure to return full swing with a weekly upload. You return if/when/how you are ready. The BNM crew is here to support you ❤ Much love from New Jersey, USA.

[@alannag2914]

Agreed!!!

[@SJ_Strum]

Thanks so so much; I can’t believe the motivation I feel hearing from you: I knew she loved this community but hearing it is like her smiling so much xxxxx

[@Elleburtonlife]

So so proud of you SJ! Naomi will be so proud of you. Thank you for bringing these back, we've defo missed them!❤❤

[@SJ_Strum]

Thanks so much Elle. Xxxxxxx

[@vickywish3663]

It's so lovely to have you back SJ. I can't imagine how tough it has been for you to come back to BNM, but so proud of how brave you are and how you have overcome the hurdles. ❤❤

[@mkitty555]

Gooooooo SJ! So so proud of you and so glad your inspiration struck again, that must be such a reassuring feeling that you're meant to do this, which you are! Thank you for filling the world with light and love! ❤️❤️

[@BBBumbleBee92]

Finding your new normal is never easy. We have all missed you and glad you are back. I named my second boy while you were spending time with your sister. We decided on Darcy (his big brother is Spencer) You are our favorite KZbin and we are so glad we will have you back for naming number three ❤

[@hannahward2225]

So glad to see you back ☺️. I know that Naomi loved the birth announcements and it feels even more poignant to recognise new life now. My third, Robyn Azalea was born 3 weeks ago ❤

[@emz7219_]

so happy to have you back SJ❤️wishing you peaceful grieving, we love to see your face on our screens!

[@SJ_Strum]

That’s so nice to hear; thank you xxx

[@ellierobinson89]

My heart is happy that you’ve made this video. I don’t know how to articulate this properly but I felt so sad that this was something that was lost when Naomi died and I’m so happy that it’s something you’ve been able to do again. She’ll be loving this so much as are all of we to see a smile on your face doing what you love xx

[@SJ_Strum]

I know she’d be so so happy; she didn’t want me to lose anything more and she was so proud of my baby name channel. It’s still surreal she’s gone; I’ve not really processed it yet but feels so nice now this is up to be a little back to what I love x

[@ellierobinson89]

You should be incredibly proud of yourself, sending all the love 💛

[@emilysangster23]

Welcome back SJ! Naomi will be so proud and her smile will be beaming down on you ❤ I had a baby boy and I named him Franklyn 💗 Now I am here again preparing for my future babies 🤍

[@jacintabeccarvarela1269]

Ahhh so glad to have you back SJ!! I imagine filming this must have been bittersweet to say the least but we are so happy to have baby name Mondays again 🫶🏻 It definitely brightened up my Monday. From this list my favorites are Jacoby, Ingrid and Agnes. I also wanted to share with you that I had a baby boy back in April and he is named Teodoro Oliver, nickname Teddy. Teodoro is the Spanish version of Theodore and growing up I loved Laurie from Little Women so he’s named after him. And Oliver is not so popular here in Argentina and it is my husband’s favorite boy name. It also has a little harry potter connection because of Oliver Woods, Gryffindor’s quidditch captain. Anyway, I just wanted to share cause I have followed your channel since the very beginning and always dreamed of the moment I got to share my baby name with you 💖

[@SJ_Strum]

Oh wow! His name is amazing; naomi would definitely approve of teddy! It was her boy name ♥️♥️♥️ Teodoro is so special, huge congrats and please please give him a hug from me xxxx

[@abigailtheflabbyfail]

Gorgeous list! I know a Liberty who goes by Bertie - such a cute nickname!

[@SJ_Strum]

YES!!!!!!!!! This is perfect 🤩

[@AdultTeenager]

I’m a Liberty and my partner calls me Bertie 🤣❤

[@hayleychewins2435]

I'm so happy you're back with BNM! Love the names Meredith & Ingrid -- so elegant and timeless. Sending you lots of love, SJ!

[@sarahkelly473]

I’m so happy baby name videos are back, I’m currently in my 2nd trimester, and beginning to think about names. Thanks for coming back despite your awful loss, it must be hard to make these after losing your lovely sister x

[@allanafelicori2869]

I was literally looking out for baby names and you posted a video!! Such a coincidence. Happy to have you back! 💗

[@SJ_Strum]

Ah yay! I really hope you find some inspiration in this list xxxxx

[@raesolsticeonlyone]

I can't tell you how much seeing your face there in the feed lifted my heart.

[@DianeElliott-k5i]

The love between you and your sister was so beautiful. I love that you are honouring her and doing this although it must be so hard.

[@ccb9894]

Much love seeing you back, SJ ❤ Ah, I got so excited seeing Romilly on this list. My Romilly turns 4 this week. (Her brother Marlowe has you to thank for his name - chosen from a video of yours long before he was even here) xx

[@groffeecub5351]

i'm so incredibly proud of you SJ, Naomi will be too. i've watched your channel for years now, and your videos and the podcast are like warm hugs - i'm so glad you feel ready to post a new one. you are amazing and so are these names. love you SJ 💗 xx

[@greendoorsoundbath8694]

You’re back!!! You’ve been missed. You’ve been in my thoughts. Big hug

[@SJ_Strum]

Thank you so so much; you’ve been missed too, I hope you’re well xxxxxxxxx

[@Cora_Moon]

I can't tell you how excited I am to have these videos back up. I nearly cried! I am so proud of you. I am a little over 6 months pregnant and am desperately trying to decide on an official middle name for our rainbow girl! So excited to hear your ideas on BNMs!! Elowyn Moon - we are really considering Elaine as a middle name but also like some more unusual/striking names

[@catherinefrances]

My comfort show is back ☺

[@emmalouise1402]

Sj it’s lovely to see you back doing a baby name list! Thank you for doing this ❤️❤️

[@SJ_Strum]

Ah thank you so so much; it’s honestly so lovely now I’ve done it xxxx

[@tracy3418]

I have an aunt named Roberta that goes by Bertie. Glad you're back! You helped us name our son and we're pregnant again and trying to come up with a name for baby #2!

[@SJ_Strum]

Oooohhh huge congratulations!!! I’m so excited to hear that news 😊 I hope you find some inspiration here xxxx

[@teresagustafsson3527]

Roberta was the first name that came to my mind as a longer name for Bertie 😊

[@tarasearle6556]

Watched for years 🫶🏻 Found out I was pregnant over the weekend and was craving a new video. Went back and watched old ones earlier and then you post this 😯🥰 It’s meant to be..perfect timing. It’s amazing to see you back! x

[@SJ_Strum]

Oh wowwwwww!! I’m so happy for you - hopefully we have a whole 9 months of name lists to find you something you love so much xx

[@Jen-tn1un]

It's so lovely to see you back, I hope you're doing well. I wouldn't expect the theme to be my thing but I adore Jacoby. The first time I came across the name was when I met someone called that and I think I freaked him out by how much I went on about loving his name! I also love Darwin, Barnaby and Ingrid.

[@lynnettegort4582]

I’m so happy to see your return to baby names! You modeled for us taking time to grieve and recover from loss which was priceless as well. Thank you for sharing yourself and your journey with us on KZbin. ❤

[@SJ_Strum]

Thanks so much Lynette x

[@kinseyfreed3692]

I’ve been thinking of you, and KZbin has been suggesting some of your old video z recently. You are in my prayers. I am currently pregnant with identical twin boys, and the naming process for two has been difficult. Good thing I’ve been watching baby name videos for years. Lol 🩵

[@isabelburrows7555]

So so happy you're carrying this on! ❤ I'm pregnant with Baby #4 and have been struggling with name inspiration, and have been re-watching/listening to all the videos and podcasts, and I'm so grateful for some fresh ideas! ❤❤❤

[@rachelrebbettes9193]

Something so comforting about baby name Mondays! So glad you feel strong enough today to post. I have Talitha Joy and Hezekiah David. Both biblical names, one old testament one new testament 💜

[@madeleinep7103]

Hezekiah is very cool!

[@RosssR]

SJ I'm so happy to have baby name Monday back, I'm really proud of you for bringing it back, it makes me remember Naomi too and the podcast, all the love ❤

[@SJ_Strum]

Me too; I’ve just been looking back at photos, I know how much this community meant to her so it’s lovely to be back x

[@sallyrose9055]

Welcome back SJ, so happy to see you here. I’ve missed these videos and can only imagine how difficult it was to do a video like this in your grief. Sending lots of love, Naomi is no doubt smiling down x

[@ruthmcevoy5424]

I LOVE Bertie for a girl! Maybe as a nickname for Beatrice..? Lots of love SJ xxx

[@SJ_Strum]

Isn’t it lush!!! I love the idea of Beatrice! X

[@momdoreads446]

So happy to see you back to baby naming and so happy to get my baby name Monday fix again ❤

[@SJ_Strum]

Ahhh I'm so so happy to hear that - thanks so much xxxx

[@ingridbennett5805]

Not only did you feature my name, you also mentioned my daughters name, my mums name, my dads name and my SIL’s name! As an Ingrid I can wholeheartedly endorse this name!

[@kirstiekyte3865]

Lovely to have you back SJ 💕

[@TaraLyz]

So glad to see you getting back in the groove of making baby name list videos again. Hoping you are all doing well. You are in my prayers.

[@SJ_Strum]

I appreciate that so so much - thank you for saying that xxxxx

[@oliviarowe3880]

I’m so joyed that you feel you can pick up baby name Monday again. I love your videos and have listened to the podcast multiple times. I would have understood never picking up baby names again. Naomi is so missed but her spirit is definitely felt in your videos and post she’ll always live in you and all her loved ones

[@domitille4752]

So happy to see you back! You are incredibly brave SJ.

[@raquelweber3287]

Love seeing you back with the baby names SJ! Beatrice was the name that immediately popped into my mind as a longer name for Bertie, it might be pushing it, but I think it's cute :) Continuing to send you love and prayers 🙏🙏🙏🙏❤️❤️❤️❤️ Great video as always :)

[@SJ_Strum]

I love that combo a lot! Naomi would have loved it so much too 👏

[@raquelweber3287]

@@SJ_Strum 😊❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@flyingbird9633]

I'm proud of you SJ! Naomi will be so proud of you. Thank you and welcome back. I know these videos need your happy energy to create. Romilly, Darwin, Marta, Meredith, Ezekiel(Zeke), and Barnaby are fantastic. I would use Zackery(zack) and Ezekiel(zeke) as sibling names in a alt universe that I have kids maybe.

[@LucyPryde-qg2ds]

Otto & Meredith are some of my fave names!! Gorgeous list ❤️

[@SJ_Strum]

I’m so glad you like them too ❤

[@Ms_me914]

welcome back! I can't imagine how hard it must be to continue baby names stuff without your sister. Im sure she would be proud that you did come back to it. sending lots of prayers to you and your family!.

[@oddmnemosyne2869]

It's lovely to see you making name videos again SJ I love Darwin too! Ingrid and Barnaby are real gems as well. So many sweet names on this list.

[@SJ_Strum]

I love Darwin so so much!!! Totally one that got away (though henrik would have vetoed anyway 😂❤) xxxx

[@oddmnemosyne2869]

@@SJ_Strum it never quite breaks into my very top choices *but* I've been playing around with the idea of Darwin the middle now for awhile and have some combos I'm really loving.

No way!! I love it too xx

I think Bertie could work for Beatrice. It’s a little bit of a stretch but I would do it haha.

I would too 😂❤❤❤❤

[@Daymickey]

Oh I’m so happy to see your face pop up on my feed! Your sister would be so proud. 💕🥹 She is sorely missed and still widely loved.

[@hannahboutilier98]

Lovely to see you sharing names with us SJ. Take all the time you need in pacing yourself as you go through this transition, I'm just happy to see your joy for names when I can 😊. I'm finally expecting after watching your videos for years, so fun. For a long form of Berty for a girl what about Berit meaning gorgeous. It feels funky and sophisticated at the same time. That also made me think of the name Beryl which I think has a kind of understated luxery sound. Thanks for this fun list.

[@abbidean8356]

We’ve missed you but glad you’ve taken your time to come back. Really enjoyed this xxx

[@mmercer93]

I am finished having babies but your baby name videos are like my calming space. Thank you so much for posting. Sending you love and strength. ❤️

[@maggieee3593]

I think Vivienne for a girl fits this theme as well! Sending love to you and your family!

Welcome back! 💕🤗 Theres an idea for a list! Female names that used to be male names and/or vice versa! Id love that!

[@tangledcharlotte]

So glad to see you again! 🎉 It must have been hard to pick this up again, but it brings value to a lot of people, and l hope it makes you happy too.

[@tiredm0m]

So happy to see you SJ. I teared up a little knowing your doing name videos again. We had our second little boy in August named him Torrin Quest.

[@teresagustafsson3527]

This was such a lovely list! So happy to have you back ❤ My favourite is probably Jarvis, kind of because I love the "character" in Iron Man and the following Marvel movies.

[@SJ_Strum]

Oh yay! I love adding the wild cards and I love the name Jarvis too! X

[@amberkruse9496]

so happy to see you back! we missed these videos! take your time on this journey ❤

That’s so lovely to hear, thanks amber. Xxxxxxxxxxx

[@LaurenGriffin1983]

Loved this- think Naomi would be proud. We would love to have another one so fingers crossed I can come back here researching for real 🎉

[@SJ_Strum]

Thanks so much Lauren; xxxx

[@annersge]

Love Barnaby and Romilly - similar to my name Anneli (Anna - Lee) that I never hear but I think fits into this list as well. Also Elsbeth instead of Elizabeth and Johan (yo - han) as an alternative to John x

[@SJ_Strum]

I love Elspeth so much - and Johan - thanks so much for adding those. Great picks! xxxx

[@oliviarowe3880]

An idea for a list is lyrical names. No necessarily names that relate to music but names that sound lyrical in nature. Names that have a musical sound when spoken. An example I think would be Alessandra or mirabel

[@josiedil]

Welcome back so glad to see this series back. I knownit must have been hard thinking of you all ❤

[@candicewiggins166]

Meredith and Ezekiel are hugely popular in my region of the USA, always loved how lovely Meredith and Lydia have sounded for girls, some strong but sweet. I love Bertrum for a boy, so cool.

[@konichiwaUT]

Happy to see you back! 💗 I’ve been thinking of you and sending you healing thoughts. We had a Margaret Lynn ♡ Meredith was actually high on my list! (But hubby was not a fan.) I dated someone who loved the name Ingrid, and I love it too, but would feel weird using it now. Barnaby is my guilty pleasure name! I like Jacoby too :) Long names for Bertie… the only thing that came to mind was maybe short for Elizabeth? I know the nickname is Betty, but maybe it’s just a little bit of a stretch more that it could work? Some names that have been floating around my mind lately are: Trudie (nickname for Gertrude that could tick some trendy boxes?), Judie, and Antonia (nickname Annie).
