My name is Julie. I love it. I loved it as a kid and I love it now in my 30's. It is sort of a sweet, spunky name. My name was somewhat common growing up, but not as common as Melissa/Jessica/Jenifer etc... I had 3 other Julie's in my graduating class of 1,000.

I also agree with Bear... Julie has had surges in popularity over the decades. The 70/80's was one of those surges, but there are a lot of Julie's from around the turn of the century too.

I like Julie and I don't think it's a dated name. It's simple, but very pretty name.

I think Julie is a little bit dated. My Mum has about 5 friends called Julie, all in their 40s. Therefore, I prefer Juliet or Julia which I think are a bit more exciting and different, and you could always use Julie as a nickname. An unusual middle name is also quite a good idea.

I love Julie. I think it's a very sweet nurturing but young sort of name. I don't find it terribly dated, but the only Julie I've ever met is my grandmothers dog so I would take my analysis of that with a grain of salt. (this is the only reason I haven't brought it up with DBF)

I think it's dated and quite unappealing. When I was a child, I always wished that this was my name. Now I loathe it. I much prefer Juliana.

I freaking LOVE the name Julie. It's one of the names of my generation that I actually like a whole lot (I also really like Lisa, but that's a whole other thing). I don't think Julie sounds too dated, but then I'm biased because I like it.

It's really dated, but it could work. I dislike it, but matching it up with a sparkly middle name might work

Unless the bearer is French, Julie has always seemed to me more like a nickname for Julia or Juliet than a full name.

I don't know about other people but I don't think it's dated. I find it quite pretty actually.

Julie is an ok name. It is a little dated but more of a classic to me. I just find it a bit boring as it was a popular name when I was in high school.

Julie is my favorite form of the Giulia / Julia names. I find it spunky, classic and vibrant. I ran across the name "Miss Julie" once. I think it's a character in a 19th century play. I loved that something I associated only with the 20th century could be so versatile. So don't apologize for Miss Julie one bit. She's doing just fine. I don't think you need a more unusual mn to make up for anything.

Are you looking for mns to go with it?
