Re: Do you think “dated” and “outdated” are neutral expressions to describe a name?
I think disliking a name because it’s “dated” is stupid. Just because a name was only popular in the 80s doesn’t mean it isn’t a good name and should never be used again. I say we try making every name timeless.

Oh no, but making everything timeless would strip all the character out of names! I love a name that reflects its own time period!
Fair enough!
Thank you. I very strongly agree with this.
