just for clarificationDo you get sick of ALL really common names? Or is it Felicia in particular? If I knew lots of Felicias I would be very happy. I think it is excellent enough of a name that it should be at least in the top twenty just by merit. I am quite happy to know lots of Annas and Johns.

I think it's Felicia in particular. All the Felicias I know are really snotty, stuck up girls. Though I know it's bad to assume every Felicia is that way. I just happen to know a lot of rude girls named Felicia.

For me, it's a mixture . . .The name is popular enough that I have bad associations with it. The same goes for Anna. If I only knew one Felicia and one Anna, and didn't like them, it wouldn't affect it as strongly. (Lydia is an example.)That said, I hate the sound of Felicia / Felicity to begin with.

Oh wowI'm not doubting you or anything, but that's really weird. I've never met anybody named Felicity or Felicia in my entire life. I guess it all depends on region, though.

I know one Felicia....She's my boyfriend's sister and is the loveliest person I've ever met, so I have a super positive association with the name. I adore her. She's an older-sister figure to me and it's great. (I'm actually closer in age to her than to Taylor, lol.) I would love to use Felicity as a mn to honor her in the future, that would be awesome.

The only Felicity I've "met" . . .was on Sunday nights at 9, I believe, until she left me in 2002 when her show got cancelled. :-( LOL :-)BTW, she was played by Keri Russell, hehe. I was an odd child.I've never met one either.Edited...
Well, I knew her:
  • 1998-1999: Tuesdays @ 9

  • 1999-2000: Sundays @ 9

  • 2000-2001: Thursdays @ 9

  • 2001-2002: Wednesdays @ 9

    I've not met a Felicity!I have met one Felicia. I think Felicia is an amazing name.But yeah - no Felicity's! Check out - http://www.behindthename.com/top/search.php?extra=p&terms=felicity&submit=GoI am pleased to see it's charting lately though. It's nice. Hard to bear as a first name though I think, lovely middle name.

    Neither have II've never met a Felicity, but my heart would absolutely *melt* if I did, and it's not even a favourite of mine. It's just so.. fresh, and elegant. It would be like meeting a Persephone, or something.I've never personally met a Felicia either, but I remember once in the school auditorium someone called out "Hey Felicia!" and I was so elated that someone my age had such a classy name.ETA: I think it was the Alicia craze that wiped out a lot of the Felicia-namers, sadly :(
