Re: Rachel
in reply to a message by oceanorchid
This name has been so popular at so many periods that I don't think it comes across as dated in any way.
Overused, though... I've known SO MANY people named Rachel that I don't think I'd ever use it for a first name.
There's part of me that has always, for whatever reason, thought that it sounded like a fruit. Like, the "-chel" sound has always given me the sensation of being associated with taking a bite out of an apple. I have no idea where that comes from, but it's what I've associated with that name for years.
Anyway, it's a good name. I like it. It's overused. I'd never use it. I like it. All together, all at once.
