Guess the year based on names...

[Tillyscoutsmum]

Inspired by a thread in baby names (and an overwhelming desire to put off work I'm supposed to be doing!), can you guess the approximate year of birth of a poster based on the most popular names of peers in their class?

So mine. Comp school in the Midlands.

Sarah
Claire
Jenny
Debbie

Paul
Lee

Gemma
Louise
Laura
Karen
Michelle
Rebecca

Boys:
Ross
John
Darren
Mathew
Craig
Ian
Daniel

1982? Gemma is definitely an 80s name in my mind, but the Michelle, Karen and John have more of a 70s vibe...

@Tillyscoutsmum
Do we think Sarah is probably the name that spans the most generations??

I think I know a Sarah for every decade since the 50's.

Or Elizabeth.

This is fun.

Me:

Claire
Hannah
Sophie
Lucy
Tom
Alex
Andrew
Jack

DD:

Olivia
Ava
Isabelle
Florence
Oliver
Jack
Sam
Harry

@Cakeandslippers Near enough...83/84 😊

Oh yes mother:
Marion, Patricia, Sylvia, Barbara, Joan, Joy, Penelope, Anita, Margot, June,

Grannie (more relatives than her school friends)
Marina, Alice, Eleanor, Helena, Isabel, Evelyn, Mabel, Edith

Funny how what goes round comes round.

@RosesAndHellebores

I'd go 1959 and 1937. Ish

Yup. I had 3 Debbie/Deborahs in my year born in 74/75

I've also recently taught a primary aged Peter (only 1 though)

@Tillyscoutsmum Mother was born on 1936, grandma in 1912. I was born in 1960 and the Barbara's, Sylvia's, Patricia's, etc, predate me by decades.
