HelpRe: Laura
in reply to a message by Caroline
I do quite like the name Laura, but I don't really think it's classic or old fashioned at all - I know a lot of people called Laura who are under 25. I'm 20 and I have at least 6 friends/acquaintances called Laura my age, and also a Louwra (LOW-ruh). Mary, Sarah, Helen and Julia are a lot more old fashioned in my opinion.
On the other hand, it was my great-grandma's name, so I suppose I can see why some people think it's old fashioned if they've only met older people with the name.
I don't really think it's dated either... it's popular amongst people my age but I don't think one would assume that a Laura was in her 20s. It'd be perfectly acceptable on a baby. It probably depends where you live as well.
