[Opinions] Popularity of Mythological Names
Although I don’t particular like most of the names that are popular at the moment (looking at you Alfie and Mabel), I get it. They are a reminisce of our (great)grandparents. But why are over-the-top Mythological names suddenly a thing? Did they become popular because of a movie or book? (I haven’t read a newly published book in a long while) Harry Potter is the only thing I can think of, but that’s too long ago I think. The names that surprise me most are Atlas, Orion, Apollo and Athena. Not all names below are from my mythology, but I think do have the same ambiance? (If that’s a way to describe it)Artemis
Orion
Allegra
Bodhi
Zion
Persephone
Ophelia, Octavia, Ottilie
Athena
Hestia
Theseus
Phaedra
Calliope, Calypso
Gaia
Orion, Odin
Atlas, Apollo
