Ashley is losing popularity too
in reply to a message by Lily8
Just a bit slower. But for several years, it dropped two places at a time. In 2007 it only dropped one, but I'm excited to see how much it fell in 2008.
Anyway. I don't think anyone posts about it because it's boring and it fits some old trend. I much prefer Ashley on a boy.
I know a TON of girls with this name, all in my age group (Around 17 - 18 years old). So end of the 80s, early 90s girls.
I prefer the Ashley spelling, but I think I once said if I were ever FORCED to have a daughter with the name, I'd spell it Ashlie. Dunno why. Most girls I know spell it Ashley, but I know one Ashleigh.
Most Ashleys I know are just Ashley. Some of them are SOMETIMES Ash.
What comes to mind is my future son, lol. But if I focus on it for a girl, it's just the everygirl. It could be anyone. Just some common girl who doesn't seem like anything special.
And I don't like Ashlyn or Ashby.
