[Opinions] Re: Jake
in reply to a message by ciara23
I don't know who Jake Paul is. I just googled it, but as soon as I saw "YouTuber" I snorted. Nobody will know who that is in 5 years, even if they know now. These internet-famous people are as fleeting as hiccups. (Thank god.)
To me, Jake is about as ordinary as it gets. Jacob was the #1 name for boys in the U.S. from 1999-2012, and in the top 10 from 1993-2017, so Jake is ubiquitous where I live. It may as well be a synonym for "teenage boy." I like long A sounds, so I think it sounds nice, but it doesn't stand out at all because it's so common.
