Re: Ethel
I think it will if it gets used in pop culture.

It was used by Lily Allen...(more),the pop singer. For her daughter (I believe Ethel Mary) and her name was publicized and discussed quite a lot back then.That's why I think it will never come back (it didn't really rise even though it had exposure). Some more people will use it but I don't see it in the top 1000.Also, in the very successful book series "The Worst Witch" that also had several movie and TV series adaptations (80s, that was too early but also in the late 90s, early 00s and late 10s - and people who are having kids now grew up watching the 90s and 00s ones and maybe even watched the 10s one because it was featured a lot on BBC I believe) featured a prominent character named Ethel yet it has still not taken off at all.Mabel and Edith sound much friendlier and so Elaine and Lucille.

I think if it gets used in the next 7 years it might catch. I mean, not light up totally...
