[Opinions] Re: Jared
in reply to a message by Billina
Everytime I see that sig I'm getting that earworm. Willoughby wolloughby wong, I hope that you sing along ... Willoughby wolloughby wee, a singalonga longa witha me!
Jared is one of the most manly sounding names ever. I like it for that reason. It's not a favorite at all, though. It just looks too Bibley for my taste. It feels a little bit like Jacob and Caleb.
It's dated, too, but as a baby name. Seems youngadulty. A name I think of as being popular in the "invisible generation" - that is, the one that is least visible from my personal perspective, the people born too late to be in my peer groups but too early for me to have paid much attention to their names as popular baby-names, who are still too young to have become famous for much of anything that's picked up by my radar. Joshua, Brittany, Caitlin, Kyle, Shelby, Alexis, Cody, Jordan, Lauren, Samantha, Chelsea, Kelsey, Taylor, Jenna, Kayla are others.
