They're almost all surname names and the descriptions given often don't even mention that. It's almost like they're trying to "sell" the rarer ones, putting them up front and extolling their rarity, rather than fulfilling the promise to tell you what the names of Ivy League students will be in 15 years.

---

So, I hate most of them ...

---

I like Bronwen and it's funny that they're talking about how rare Bronwyn is but not even mentioning that there is Bronwen too.

---

I like Darcy, but only for girls, and they don't specify gender.

---

Something interesting about this list is that they sort of assume gender doesn't even matter - as surname names are apparently suitable for either sex and this is a preppy thing. I agree that it's often a preppy style. BUT not "Ivy League" preppy!

---

I like Hunter, but I'm pretty sure it isn't preppy.

---

Seeing Poppy on this list is funny. Poppy is so tacky and not preppy.

---

I like Roland and Arabella.
