Least dated - Luana
Most dated - Shirley
Least likely to make a comeback - Shirley
Most likely to make a comeback - Dorothy
I hate Shirley and Dorothy - though I have more respect for Dorothy because it seems less dated and has lots of cute NNs.
Ruth and Luana are nice. Funny actually that Luana's been on my mind lately :) I feel like "L" names on girls are popular right now and "Lu" names in particular have an "of the moment" vibe. And then "-ana" names are also quite popular - so I think a Luana would get along just fine these days and that something like Dorothy Luana doesn't sound overly dated. Ruth is retro-chic and both Ru and Ruthie are adorable as NNs
