Re: Sarah
Considering its lowest ranking in the past 130 years in the US is 117, I'd say it hasn't really ever gone out of style as such. Slightly less popular for births in the 50s and 60s perhaps, but definitely not uncommon or out of style IMO. It might have just been the area that you grew up in as well. I do agree with you that old classic-style names do go in and out of style somewhat though. I once read an article somewhere about classic names and how for it to be truly considered a classic it must have never left the top 100 names. I think maybe Cleveland Kent Evans wrote it? Or maybe he posted it here for discussion but didn't write it. Anyway, I'm not so sure I agree with that definition but it is an interesting topic of discussion. Mary is now out of the top 100, if it continues to drop, will it still be classic or just a dated name?
