i had a friend named this who went by Angel, to stand out more and because Angelina was too overly feminine.

---

i have nothing wrong with it, other name yea, it sounds too sugary personally for me. it's good as a name that everyone knows, but that isn't common. and has many nicknames- actually, i think i've known more Angelinas probably, but they just all went by Angie. never connected that lmao

---

and it's more classic than dated to me. also reminds me of the ballerina mouse, which is always the best association to have with a name.

I think it’s really sweet but not in a bad way. I do associate it with Angelina Jolie but it’s a pretty name in its own right and I think it’s usable. I do prefer it over Angela, which doesn’t do much for me. Don’t think it’s dated at all.

I don't like either. I love Angel though.

I haven't thought about Angelina Jolie when I saw the name on the title so, to me, the name isn't really attached to that actress and, no, I don't think it is dated and I do prefer it to Angela.

I prefer Angela, but not enough to use.

Angelina isn't particularly sugary, but it is inconveniently long and has a clumsy, heavy rhythm.

---

I know that Angelina Jolie exists, but I don't know what she looks like, what she does (OK, she acts, but that's all I know) or even if it's her actual name.

My takes

*These are just my personal impressions of these names. I really do not intend to offend / criticize.

---

-I’m not a big fan of Angelina. It’s so feminine that it seems prissy to me, and a bit over the top.

---

-I definitely prefer Angela. The two names have totally different feels. Angela is a strong, no-nonsense woman who can handle her business. Angelina comes from a wealthy family and feels that ordinary work is beneath her.

---

-Yes, I think of Angelina Jolie (that’s not a bad thing)

---

-No, it doesn’t seem dated to me, but Angela kind of does. Angelina was never really popular and so is a bit more timeless.

Hi Perrine !!!

---

Angelina is too nicknamey imo

---

Angela or Angelina? Well...neither.
I much prefer Angelica.

---

Angelina is strong imo not sugary at all. Angela instead is the sweet-granny one.

---

Yes my first thought about Angelina is the Jolie. This is because despite it seems Italian Angelina is much much rarer than Angela.

---

Infact in 2016 the Angela born were 544 while the Angelina only 39.

---

Dated? Yes. Angela and Angelina seem dated and granny to me. Angelo is instead more modern and it is coming back fastly.
