HelpRe: Classic or Dated?
in reply to a message by rem
A name can be both classic and dated. Sarah is a classic but will never be dated, because it has always been more or less popular, it never fell out of fashion.
Agnes is a classic, but it is dated, because it did fall out of fashion, in a big way, and it will take many more generations for it to become a revived classic, if it ever does.
Brandy and Heather are not classics (Heather might be considered more classic in the UK) and they are now dated, because they went through a brief period of great popularity and then rapidly fell off and are rarely used anymore.
The same thing happened to Brittany in the eighties and nineties.
