Any female name that cannot age gracefully with its bearer is suspect.

I agree. Harkening back to my post #157, a child needs a name that will take him far, and serve him well in later life. A five year old Tiffany may be a darling, but one day, God willing, she'll be a grandma.

"We're going to Granny Tiffany's for Thanksgiving." Just doesn't sound right.

It doesn't sound right today, but 60 years from now, there will be so many Granny Tiffanys that Tiffany will be considered an "old lady name," just like Edna or Edith might be considered old lady names today! :-) How funny to think of little old ladies named Heather, Caitlyn and Stephanie, but that's how it will be someday!
