I want the 80s names to come back!
Tina, Tracey, Susan, Amy, Alice, Chloe, Jessica, Karen, Chrissy/Christy, Charlotte, Rebecca etc etc

Ross, Brian, Martin, Sean, Mark, Aaron, Adam, Carl, Stephen, Darren, Paul, Anthony. So many Sams and Dans and Toms!

Some of those are Def more 70s and will be back round soon enough.
I know young Amy's and Alice's and Charlotte's never gone away.

Jazzy is just short for Jasmine isn’t it? So not that weird.

The Ninja Kids (DS’s favourite YouTube channel) are called something like Braxton, Paxton, Peyton and Ashton. And their non-ninja adopted brother Jason, who is a definite third wheel (normal name, half their age, can’t do any gymnastics).

There have been several popes called Urban. I suppose there must once have been a saint of that name.

ShinyEspeon · 15/04/2024 22:26

Marcellous, Dempsey, Mungo, Templeton.

HonoriaLucastaDelagardie · 15/04/2024 22:31

Mungo is a good Scottish name. Glasgow cathedral is dedicated to St Mungo.
