Re: Charlotte?
in reply to a message by Ash
I like it in theory, but in practice I'm supremely lukewarm. A while back I was introduced to a baby Charlotte and was pretty underwhelmed.
My grandma haaaates this name though so that's a pretty big selling point for me. I keep teasing her by threatening to name my daughter Charlotte Shirley after her.
I suppose it's gaining popularity because it's following the same trend cycle as Sophia and Isabella and other pretty-pretty princess olden timey names. It's got that same style but it's still considered "fresher" than the super-popular Isabella and stuff. I would not be surprised at all though if it kept rising and landed within the top five in the next five years. I bet Annabelle, another earthy sort of old fashioned name, will rise too.
