What was the Evie of your day?

[EveryoneLoves09876]

When I was at school everyone was Emma, Rachel, Rebecca and a few variants of Katy thrown in. Also quite a few Hollies which is odd. I was born in the 1990s.

I was born 1989 in Glasgow and my school was overrun with Ashley/ Ashleighs and Katies. Lots of Johns and Ryans aswell.

Laura, Hannah, Emily

Born 1979. In each school class I had multiple Claires, Kates/Katies/Catherines, Rachels, Emmas, Victorias, Jessicas, Rebeccas, Sarahs. Also Hannah, Amy, Gemma, Rosie, Joanna/Joanna, Emily, Louise/Louisa cropped up a few times.

Of course! Lots of Lauras too

Born in 1961. loads of Sharons and Karens.

Joanne, Lisa, Sarah,Samantha, Kerry, Jenny, Nicola, Kim, Michaela, Tracey

Jennifer and Rebecca definitely. Lovely names though, and in the 80s growing up with an uncommon first name I wanted to have a more popular one. Funny now a lot of parents (myself included) like to choose a name not many peers will have.

Also Helen, Alison, Angela, Debbie, Sarah, Sue, Sally, Clare/Claire, Melanie, Tracey.

We had a lot of Sarah's Claire's and Emma's. But by far and away the most common was actually a middle name. You were in a firm minority if your middle name wasn't Louise when I was at school. Sarah Louise being the run away favourite.

I was born in the early 80's.
