[Opinions] Re: Hazel...
in reply to a message by Alienor
I despise this name. It sounds so ugly to me: HAY-zell. Ugh.
I think it's currently popular with the hipster set, but I don't see it becoming popular in the mainstream. It's geek chic, but not fluffy enough for the Katelynn/Madison/Ashlynn crowd. I see it *maybe* breaking into the top 100, but never higher than that, Julia Roberts notwithstanding. Like I said, it appeals to the name nerds, not the Average Jane/Joe.
I have to be honest: I think Hazel Augusta Sandrine sounds very pretentious. Hazel Augusta would be enough, or a shorter second middle name.
