Last month we asked our readers to vote on a number of features they would like to see added to the Brainstormer application. Today we are pleased to announce the first of these additions, favourites, is now available to our users.
A quick how-to
To add a name to your favourites you simply click the little heart button that accompanies each one. You can jump back to your favourites list at any time and use it as a jumping off point for more brainstorming. Remember, you need to sign in to save your favourites for your next visit.

The future
We’ve been busy laying the groundwork for lots more exciting features to come. Registered users will soon be able to submit new names to the database and create their own custom name-themes to keep for their own reference or share with the world.
As always, we welcome your feedback. Please use the below comment form to let us know about your ideas, and watch this space for further developments.

I’ve noticed a recent problem with the way the names are displaying in the little bubbles. A lot of them are listed as “Jul…” for example, so you have to hover over the name with your cursor to see whether it is Julia, Juliana, Julienne, Juliet, or Julia-Rose. Is there a way that could be fixed? Also, is there a way you could avoid having the bubbles overlap? It makes it impossible to read some of the related names without cursor-hovering.
Thanks!
Thanks for the heads up Emmy. That sounds like a problem I’m familiar with involving fonts and the Flash player. Unfortunately, I’m not seeing it at the moment which makes it a bit hard to track down. I’ve seen something like what you’re describing in the past though. I’m looking into it. If anybody who is experiencing this issue could send me a screen shot it would be very helpful.
Thanks for this post and for sharing this..It is a great thing to discover now a days.
