April
What do you think of April? Too dated (70s, 80s?).

Well...I do think it's probably the most dated month name, but I don't think it's too dated for use. April is pretty, informal, and sweet, and I like it quite a bit.
May and June don't feel dated to me because they're being rediscovered as old-fashioned/hipsterish names. When I picture a May or June, I picture both old ladies and toddlers. When I picture an April, it's more the twenty- or thirty-something set, so, for me, it has a hint of datedness. I still think it's pretty, but I don't consider it a young name.
Ic... If I heard someone named a western kid June, I'd prob'ly be wondering what the parents were thinking... prob'ly because it strikes me as so ugly... Though Jun w/out the e in Jpns. doesn't seem so bad... just needs to be part of the name rather than the whole name.
I've generally met Aprils who are friendly, pleasant, genuine females.
Meh. I don't think it's dated. I do think of apes.
It's not in my top 10 or anything, but I like it. Don't think it gets used enough to really have a decade attached to it.
Not dated at all. April has been one of my only constant favorites for years. I love it. I think it's sweet and simple--a perfect girl's name.
I think it's a little... downmarket.
I think it's pretty. I named my albino budgerigar that.
I don't think it's too dated, actually. It feels kind of refreshing to me.
