[Opinions] Re: Tiffany
in reply to a message by Lily
I knew a few in school, and my daughter's kindergarten teacher this year was named Tiffanie. Very nice teacher too.
I've always liked the name Tiffany, but there's no doubt it has a fairly downmarket image. I am still amazed that Donald Trump used it for his own daughter, it is not the name you might expect a multi-gazillionaire to want to use, except that Trump has a kind of twisted sense (of humor?) and might possibly have been being ironic...or else it was Marla Maples's doing.

Really? I think it's totally a name someone who was very successful and rich in the 80s or 90s would have used. Back then I think it had a very successful, glitzy image (probabaly because of the jewelry and Breakfast at Tiffany's). I think it was the same with Crystal, I know one who graduated from Yale. I think these names just screamed 'glamour, success, money' in the 80s. They don't now because they're so overused. But I could really see someone like Donald Trump naming his daughter Tiffany. I also like the way Tiffany Trump sounds.
Oh and I read that he named her this because Tiffany + Co cleared a space so he could build his Trump Tower in New York. I have no idea whether it's true or not.
