Are these names too 80/90's?

[WishICouldThinkOfSomethinWitty]

We're TTC and I know it's jumping the gun a bit but I can't stop thinking about Baby Names!
I've compiled a list of names I love with loads for girls. Most of which include names of my generation.
I love:
Natalie
Keira
Lauren
Georgina
Abbey
Megan
Ashleigh

The problem is, I don't want her to have an outdated, old fashioned name. I went to school with a Theresa and a Lesley and they were seen as a bit uncool, which was problem nothing to do with their names but as it's the first thing people know/hear about you I don't want people to think she's a bit of a fuddy duddy.

What do you think? Would you name your baby any of those names?

Sorry wouldn't personally use any!! Do like Natalia instead of Natalie though!!

Some of these are definitely current - I know babies called Georgina, Abby and Megan. My favourite on your list is Abby!

Definitely don't think they're too 90s.
I have a Megan and always get compliments on her name.
At dds school there are actually quite a few Lauren's and Abbeys, none of your names sound out of date at all, i know a baby Keira too.

I really like Natalie, I think that's my favourite from your list (besides Megan of course )

No, I think those names are all fine. I know a 5 year old Lauren and everyone comments how much they like the name.
Georgina is my favourite from your list - a fairly timeless name imo.

I like them all except Ashleigh. The spelling there (leigh) does feel a bit 'of that era' to me, but that's not a particularly terrible thing. Love Ash as a shorteblning though.

Names trends seem to be moving so fast that I wouldn't worry so much about seeming dated. 90's names will be majorly in vogue in about 5 years at this rate I reckon

They are quite 80s/90s...but if you like them, so what?

I really like Keira, although prefer the Irish spelling of Ciara.

My name, my best friend's name and three other girls from my year at school are in your list. We were born in the late 80's/early 90's.

The only one that looks dated to me is Ashleigh. Possibly Natalie. I wouldn't let it put me off though. What would put me off is the shortening of (lovely) Natalie to Nat.

Not at all. Love Gg and Natalie. Have you considered Gemma?

Abby is fine and Lauren seems like a new classic to me, though it became popular in the 80s.

Natalie does seem dated to me - baby of 70s to 80s.

Megan, though sort of classic, feels dated too.

Ashleigh just seems like a temporary fashion that won't last.

I really like Keira. I know it became fashionable after K Knightly became famous but, it is lovely and I think will become well used over a long time.

Those names are fine!
Lauren & Megan were on our shortlist

I think they’re all fine. Ashleigh would be my least favourite/the most surprising to hear on a baby born now, it does feel a bit dated because of the spelling. Megan is my favourite.

Natalie - Like Na'erly off EastEnders
Keira - no.
Lauren - ok
Georgina - ok
Abbey - ok
Megan - dated
Ashleigh - Dated and naff

I like Natalie, and find it sweet and not particularly dated. Also like Lauren, Megan and Ashley (but with that spelling, even for a girl.) Again, none of those are massively dated to me, not in the way that Kelly or Gemma scream 80s, for example.

Keira is OK. Not fond of Georgina, but I don't really like any of the George-type names for girls. Abbie or Abi, both short for Abigail is a classic in my opinion, and I know a few younger ones. I don't like the Abbey spelling as much.

I would find all these names refreshing in the face of the tide of Ava-Eva-Evie-Ivy-Islas (which are names that I find pretty and like a lot. Just not on every little girl.)

From your list, I like Georgina the best, followed by Megan.
I love Abigail, with Abby for a shortening.

Don't use the spelling "Abbey" - that's a big church.
My Dd's friend goes by Abi.
I like Georgina best from your list, especially if nn Georgie!

The only ones which are really outdated, IMO, are Natalia, Megan and Ashleigh. Ashleigh is the worst of the bunch.

I wouldn't look twice at a baby Keira, Lauren, Georgina or Abbey. I know young children with some of those names.

thinking of baby names early is a good thing! I love Lauren. Also like Megan and Abbey.

The names are fine, although I would have Abbey has a nn for Abigail.

I know a 9year old Lauren and a 19 year old Lauren, so I don’t think of it a s an 80s /90s name,

Ashleigh is very 80s/90s
Abigail is lovely and can be shortened to Abi/Abbie but I don't like Abbey
Laura is more classic/timeless than Lauren IMO
Georgina, Megan, Natalie all perfectly acceptable and have been used over a long enough period not to be associated with a single decade

I'd possibly use Georgina or Natalie because I like them.

I wouldn't consider the others because I'm not keen on them, but not because they are dated.

The main thing is to choose a name you love.

I actually really like them all (including Ashleigh). I know many, many people with those names (various spellings of Abby and Ashleigh though).

I like Megan and Abby (that spelling best). I wonder if Meghan Markle will increase its popularity though.

My best friend has a nearly 4 year old called Lauren . It's a nice name . I like them all . Not as dated as some names . Abigail is especially quite popular .
