HelpRe: Karen
in reply to a message by Raven Briar
Alas I think not. Not for a while anyway, and those that remember the meme will probably have it stick with them as their primary association with Karen.
I'm not fond of the name at all, I think it's terribly dated.

You are probably right. I know a very nice woman in her 60s named Karen and a now retired librarian in her 80s with the name, which gives me fond feelings toward it. Maybe in 20 years, when all the people who have made the current storm of memes are older and no longer in vogue, the name will be fondly associated with great-grandmas.

Oh yeah I can see it coming back, it is (or was) a pretty popular name and those just don't die that easily. I'm going to throw out a guess that the children of the current generation of toddlers will be the ones to bring it back. The meme would be too far removed by then, and grandparents (those who know the meme well / even partaken in it) will get less influence on the names.
It'd probably be seen as "charming" lmao
The closest comparison is probably Ada. Karen was big between the 1930s and up until the 2010s (I've checked just for funsies, the decline of the name has nothing to do with the meme). Ada, by comparison Was popular from the 1880s up until the 1940s where it declined in popularity for decades until it fell of completely in the 80s. I suspect a similar trend where 20 years or so down the line (probably a little more), like Ada, Karen will suddenly rise to trendy status.
It'll be interesting to see what names they'd like by then
