[Opinions] Re: Tiffany
in reply to a message by Ismene
"It certainly isn't any trashier or tackier than Stephanie or Nicole or Denise or Megan."
"What? Denise is tacky?"
No, I meant these names are NOT tacky.
Lisa, Kelly, Courtney, and Amber aren't either really, but they are more like tacky than Tiffany is IMO.
I'm basing my impressions on my personal experience, not on looking at popularity charts. I was born in 1971 and I perceive Denise as a name common in my own age group, along with most of the other names I mentioned. (Amber, Megan, Courtney seem younger, and I agree that Lisa, Kelly and Stacy seem older but they were still common in my age group) I've not personally known any Denises who are older than 45.
Danielle seems to me to have been popular for longer than any of the others - there were Danielles in school with me, and I still see them among my daughter's peers - and I think of it as less trendy, so I didn't choose it for comparison to Tiffany for "tackiness."
