[Opinions] Re: Miley
in reply to a message by Paul
1. Miley is a name. You can see evidence of this in the fact that many people have used it as a name for their daughters.
2. Why would a woman need to lie about her age? Do you lie about your age? Or is this exclusive to women?
3. Miley suits a toddler because it’s mainly used on toddlers. In 30 years when all the Mileys are grown, it will suit a grown woman. That’s literally how name trends work. I wonder if people said nonsense like this in the 50s. “Barry??? That will never suit a grown man! Why didn’t you name him John?”
4. Wooow you dont like Miley Cyrus. How original. Hating celebrities makes you so interesting.

Completely agree. Miley is not a name I'd use or even like, but some of these name purists go a bit too far with their arguments against using particular names.
You're a hero. Thank you for putting this so articulately
