Re: Michael?
in reply to a message by Kit
A bit of both. But horribly overused for sure. And it had a longer run of super popularity than most names do. I find that interesting. I know tons of older men named Michael, who mostly go by Mike. Then I know an equally large group of younger men who use Michael in full with no nickname. Plus it's one of the most generic of middle names. It really could use a rest at this point.
