We were early adopters of this trend. We’ve got a Helen and a Bernadette, though in Catholic homeschooling circles, those names are common enough.

“ Hayes, Lachlan, Palmer, Soren, Sterling and Theodore,….”

I knew a Teddy growing up. But those other names are not what I would think of as”traditional.”

John, James, Robert, Richard, Elizabeth, Susan, Mary, William….those are what I would call traditional “American” names.

But, at least I can pronounce the ones they are using. And that is a plus. And…in the end they will declare themselves “BIG Balz” at some point anyway.

Both my wife and I have a Shadrack among our ancestors. Not the same one, though.

Ulysses, Millard, Grover, Dwight, and Abraham are proven winners, too.

Your kid will either become a golfer or a serial killer or both.

From reports posted here on FR, church attendance has halted its decline and is now showing signs of increasing. On top of that, adults under 30 are clearly becoming more politically conservative.

After decades of aggressively advancing leftism/secularism, the pendulum is starting to swing in the opposite direction.

“ Shanequa’ or ‘Quantvarious”

…it just so happens that my wife and I considered those for our daughters. 🤣

Names come back in fashion when they no longer sound like old folk's names.
