Fenella
I think that most non-name nerds would probably be a bit baffled and put off by Fenella, but I was thinking about it and if it seems, based off of some of the sounds in it, as if it could become trendy. It has sounds in common with names that currently are. But at the same time, I don't see that happening.it has the -ella of Isabella (1), Ella (13), Gabriella (33), Bella (48), etc. And it's 'fen' sound is so similar to Finn, which has been barrelling up the popularity charts. Finn is currently only 300, but it's been leaping up and I'm sure it will go even higher.This is sort of a strange, meandering post, and I only haven't quite yet figured out whatever point it is that I'm trying to make, but I basically have two questions:1. Fenella (nn Fen) - What do you think of it? 2. What do you think makes some names incredibly popular/appealing/trendy and other names with similar or even the same sounds in them undesirable/unappealing? (Not specifically in the case of Fenella, although I know it's kind of silly of me to say that after having influenced you by musing about Fenella for a while.)I hope that all made sense!
