Asking for a friend

Little girl due next month, I think
They have chosen vanessa

My friend (soon to be granny) thinks it's a bit old fashioned, but not in a good way
Obviously, she has agreed with her daughter that it's a nice name. Can have nicknames if she wants. Is a real name etc.
She asks, is it due a revival?
Toddler nessie could be cute?

Vanessa is a lovely name. Pretty, slightly quirky, retro and due a comeback.
