You heard Linda?
To be honest i think it's a pretty name. I like the ''solidity'' of Linda, Susan, Jane, Mary, Ruth and some of these 60s names will definitely come back soon. But I have not heard a baby Linda!

@QueenDanu Yes, Linda is quite popular at the moment. I also know an Agnes, a couple of Martins, a Wilma , a Norma, lots of Davids. Ruth isn't that unusual either.
