Re: British girl's names, Poppy, etc
in reply to a message by Tempestgirl
It is very popular over here, but it's not a recent thing- there was a girl in the year above me at school named Poppy, and I'm 22!
Other 'decidedly British' names (in my opinion) are Alfie, Archie, Freddie, Thomas, William, Lilly, Ruby, Tillie, Grace.
As you can probably tell, old-fashioned nicknames used as full names are very much in vogue at the minute!
For American names, I'd probably say Ryan, Callum, Jason, Ashley (g), Jennifer, and anything hyphenated, like Bobby-Jo, Billie-Jean etc
