[Opinions] Do you think John and Mary need rest?
In my case, I think it's a bit like that.

John is more popular than Mary. Both of these names are used a lot among religious people. I think John could use a rest.
They’re already getting one? There aren’t many people under 50 or with these names
Yes, and I think they’re starting to get it.
Same here
Not anymore. I guess John is still common, but Mary isn't overused anymore. I don't think John is OVERused anymore either, it's just a normal amount of popular.
No, not at all, certainly would be nice to use these classic names
Where I live, they've had a good rest and would enjoy being used again.
I honestly don't know. John is a little boring I guess, but Mary can still surprise me sometimes. A few years back someone I worked with named their baby Mary Isabel and I thought it was incredibly beautiful, not boring at all. Mary certainly would be very unusual on a class list today, so maybe it's had enough rest and has come around again.
Yes, even though they're not as common as they once were, they've been very common for centuries, and I think a little rest is needed.
Thank you.
