I've seen something of a resurgence of Nordic "-id" feminine names in the polls recently: Astrid, Ingrid (especially), Sigrid, etc. are coming up more often, so naturally I'm thinking about them. Particularly Astrid.
I've met a couple Astrids in my life, and they were Hispanic / Latina. I don't know whether the trending use in the United States is still among the Latino population, but that has been my experience. The sound isn't unpleasant to my ears, but I can't get over the fact that it's one letter off the word "astride." That's what I want to say every time I read the name.
Anyway, wdyt?
