HelpRe: Best and Worst Names listed in the "Ladies Home Journal" from 1945
in reply to a message by diamanda
The first thing I noticed is "oh my, how naming practices have changed since 1945".
Still well liked are Michael, James, David & William for boys and Elizabeth, Katherine and maybe Margot for girls.
Oh, how times have changed for the name Karen - once so popular now a pejorative slang term.
Some disliked names that are now "cool" again: Oscar, Ezra, Felix & Isaac and Matilda, Abigail & Anastasia.
