Re: Sailor
in reply to a message by Lily8
I strongly prefer Taylor. The reason why it's not getting very popular (at least here in America) is probably because it's a word.(I don't know where you live, but if you google Sailor you will see what a Sailor is) Saylor may look more trendy and tacky but it is a thousand times better than Sailor will ever be. It might get popular, but it's likely to not pass the top 100. It probably won't even make the top 500. Who knows, the way naming trends are today.

People use words as names all the time
In the top 100 there is:
Mason (as in, a stone mason, which is a job like a sailor)
Hunter
Chase
John (well... not really, but i read this book where the main character, John, wanted to find his father and ask him why he named him after a toilet. so it was worth mentioning, I think)
Destiny
Brooke (I can't believe that's still top 100 wow. xP)
Trinity
Faith
Autumn
Plus Taylor and Tyler of course, from tailor and tiler.
I don't see why Sailor can't be used as a name. I'd much rather see it than Taylor... I'm sick of Taylor; I know so many and they're all the same.

uhm it sounds exactly the same so it doesn't really matter in my opinion.
I agree there are plenty of other names that aare things and I like them just fine. Just because you change the spelling arround it does not always mean the meaning has changed. It's still a thing.
