Re: 'American' names
To me American names are names that are hardly used in Europe and if so not on the same gender. They don't need to be American in origin, though. So to me Karen wouldn't be one of them. Nancy...hmmm not sure.I'd say: Lindsey, Lindsay, Kelly, Jody, Jamie, Tracy, Stacy, Robin.I'm German and -ey names on girls always sounded very American to me. For this generation or the 90s I'd say Kelsey, Ashley, Ainsley, Ashby, Courtney, Kaylee and Hayley sound very American.Or because she was born in the 60s/70s maybe something like Dawn or Misty.
