Help[Opinions] Buffy fan here
in reply to a message by Gracie
So this is what I think of:
I don't really get a religious tone with Faith anymore than I do Hope or Grace.
I have more to give! More words! More joke! MORE BANANAS! - Gerald

Though sometimes I think Faith sounds like... um... the name of a horse girl with a braid in a children's book, lol. But Faith Lehane is my first association. (And what a radical difference those two perceptions are!)

Like I said in my response, there are other ways to use the concept of "faith" but typically most use it in a religious context. For things religious people don't have answers for or are unknowable, they have 'faith'.
Grace as a concept/virtue is used in a lot more contexts in everyday conversation- "she was graceful", "he handled that situation with grace" etc.
Hope is obviously used way more than both of the above. We all hope for all sorts of things that aren't necessarily religious nor to they require any intervention from a higher power.
But I also think of Faith from Buffy haha :) I think it's a pretty name, the public perception is what would cause me not to use it.
