[Opinions] Re: Anne
in reply to a message by Lily
You said you couldn't understand how anyone could think naming their daughter Mary was fresh and I was simply explaining HOW such a thing could happen for an individual person... like I said I know VERY few young Marys but lots of young Annas... so TO ME Mary sounds fresh by comparison.Mary has been much more popular throughout history but Anna has been very close for the past 20 years and MORE popular than Mary for the past 10ish.... So Anna feels more familiar (which is why a lot of people choose it over Mary) but to others that gives Mary more charm... at THIS POINT in our history -because Anna has been more popular throughout my lifetime- rooting for Mary FEELS like rooting for the underdog
