Is Jade an outdated name? I love it but I've not heard it being used in years

Ok maybe not Ivory.

It's definitely not in the Top 100 and has actually dropped in popularity over the years from 19th in 1996 to 519th in 2019. Jaida and Jada are even more unpopular.

The name isn't my cup of tea but I find it ok. Don't like the look of jade stone though. I prefer Ruby, Amber, Ivory, Emerald as names.

My sister is in her 30s and is called Jade, it got quite common for a while but don't hear of many babies being called Jade now. I do like the name for what it's worth.

I don’t think it was ever common enough to be outdated. I know one in her 30s.
If you like it, go for it.
