Re: Jack, Henry, or Oliver
Sure, your values probably have the most say in how you choose a name. But so do society’s values?Popularity lists are basically summaries of which names a society prefers at any time.So if you wanted your child to have a generally accepted name but not be one of 5 in their class you’d probably pick something ranked in say the 50s-100.No one is going to name their child Adolf / Adolph for example because society wouldn’t find it acceptable.
(I know that’s an extreme example).So while you can’t predict if your child would like their name or not, you can sort of guess how society would react to it and how “acceptable” it is as a name in itself perhaps?
