HelpRe: Roger.
in reply to a message by Elinor
I don't think that Roger is necessarily an uber- British name. It's not my favorite name, but it is my grandfather's name, and he is of entirely Swedish stock, though he, and his mother were born in the US.
Sebastian has been one of my favorites for years, but you are right it's climbing the charts like crazy. However, I don't think its restricted to yuppies.
Even classic names have gone through periods of intense popularity and trendiness. The test of a classic name is whether or not it endures beyond the trends. Names that were trendy in the 70's and 80's like Tiffany, Stephanie and Kimberly probably won't see a revival for a long time.
