How are the names “Pond” and “Friday” being suggested before Bill or George? I’m all about a unique name and but I shouldn’t have to swipe for 30 minutes through 200+ names before seeing ANY popular, commonplace names. Suggestions should at least start to tailor themselves based on the responses to each name so that users are actually seeing a variety of names catered to what they would actually consider naming their child. I expected more from an app created by one of the top baby naming websites. Overall, very disappointed that I paid good money for no additional features on an app that was deleted almost immediately after downloading. Useless - unless you’re naming a fairy of some sort or an imaginary friend. **Developer response:** Ernmarmil, 2.0.0 went out last week. The free app now has the Nameberry website except the forums, so you can search and browse by style and origin instead of only swiping the deck. If the names still feel wrong after you update, tell me the style you wanted. ### 3/5 — It's okay *2026-07-15, version 0.1.6* The app looks nice and it is fun to swipe the names. However, if you already have a Nameberry account with liked names, it will often ask you to swipe on a name you have already liked and it doesn't import the names you already like onto your liked list. So despite Nameberry's comment to a previous review, it really doesn't take into account the names you've liked in that way. It would be great if the account lists synched. It is also annoying that you can click on a name you like and see information about similar names, but you can't add them to your list. You also can't just search a name and add it. ### 2/5 — Needs More *2026-07-08* I wanted to love this app since it is a paid app, but there needs to be more customization. I don’t want to swipe through the weirdest names I’ve never heard of; give us curated lists or themes to choose to swipe within- just like the sections on the website. Idk why the names are all obscure? **Developer response:** The names on the app follow your taste, so if you like rare names, or a lot of your favorites on Nameberry are unique, it suggests more rare names. If you swipe left on all those "weird" names you're encountering, you should start seeing some less obscure choices. You're following a trail, but you're also creating a trail. ### 5/5 — Amazing baby name app *2026-07-07* Nameberry has long been my favorite baby name website. The only thing that was missing was an app so I could use Nameberry everywhere I went — and now they have delivered! The Nameberry app is the perfect baby name app, it has an excellent swiping interface and the best name information out there. I Love it! **Developer response:** Thank you, so happy you like it! Now names you swipe and save and match on the app connect to your account on Nameberry, where you can use them to build new lists. ### 5/5 — Love this! *2026-07-01* The Nameberry app is genuinely a new way of looking at names! It's thoughtful, intuitive, and isn't just a bunch of name meanings. I love that it shows me my tastes and lets me learn about me. Am recommending to all expecting parents! **Developer response:** Thank you! We're delighted. ### 2/5 — Not What I Expected *2026-06-28, version 0.1.6* I love nameberry.com but I was hoping for an app form of the forums ### 1/5 — Doesn’t seem to “learn” anything *2026-06-23* The description claims that the app learns what you like based on what you favorite, but it doesn’t seem to do a very good job. Whereas most apps have the issue of showing too many common name, this app has the opposite problem—it’s hard to find a name at all! Most of what I’m swiping through are just straight up not names. It’s like monkeys on typewriters. And similar to many other apps there’s an issue with spelling repeats; Eliot, Elliot, Eliott, etc. Lastly, it doesn’t give you a true mix of male/female names. I’ll go through 30 male before I see a female. But it doesn’t matter anyway because it seems to have a male and female entry for all names. On top of it all the app is just buggy. Just use the website, they clearly don’t have the care/resources to make this any good **Developer response:** SavyBaldwin, 2.0.0 went out last week. The free app now has the Nameberry website except the forums, so you can search and browse by style and origin instead of only swiping the deck. If the names still feel wrong after you update, tell me the style you wanted. ### 2/5 — Must Upgrade *2026-06-18* I was disappointed to find that the partner feature (i.e. connecting accounts with your spouse) is only available if you upgrade your account to the paid version. If using this app without wanting others’ input, you still only get 50 swipes before you must upgrade. Bummer. **Developer response:** issaacecil, a partner has never needed a paid app. One paid member can invite as many people as they want, and their partner does not pay to join the pair. The free swipe cap is now 1,000, not 50. Update and tell me if the invite is still blocked. ### 1/5 — Disappointing *2026-06-08, version 0.1.6* I thought it would be handy version of the app where you can search names and it will lead you to similar names etc. I would like a refund. ### 1/5 — Don’t purchase! *2026-06-06, version 0.1.6* Keeps glitching and says it can’t find the backend. Also struggling to link with partner. Good idea, needs work. ## Frequently asked questions about Nameberry ### What is Nameberry Premium?
