Help[Opinions] Re: Sarah
in reply to a message by Wandering Moon
But Sarah was indeed out of style from about 1920 to about 1970. I was in school during the 1960's and 1970's and I literally cannot remember one Sarah in my elementary, middle, or high schools. Contrast that with the number of Sarahs I've known who are now in their twenties.
There are old, classic names that do go in and out of style. Victoria--my favorite---very out of style during the 1930's and 1940's. Had a minor vogue of popularity during the 1950's but still didn't rise out of the 90's. It didn't become a top fifty name until 1987. And it's about as old and classic a name as there is.
Just pointing out that old and classic doesn't always mean "never goes out of style". And if a name goes in and out of style, it can always at some point seem dated. I believe that Sarah at some point in the future will seem very dated.
