[Opinions] Re: Rachel
in reply to a message by Lily8
I think it'll keep falling for awhile. Probably never enough to fall out of the top 1000, but it's on a down slope. So maybe it'll feel dated soon. But I don't think it does, not yet.
I know/have known four Rachel's (one of whom goes by Rae), 2 Rachelle's, and a Raechel (who got her name misspelled at bowling as Reachel).
My favorite spelling is Rachel. It's the original, and the simplest.
I don't think of Rachel on Friends, mostly because I've never watched Friends. I think of myself ;D
Personally, I think it's rather dull, even out of the top 100. I find it so much more fun as a MN.
oh and in my experience, people have difficulty spelling it because there's so many options. My own family can't even spell my name-- I've had it spelled Rachael, Racheal, Rachele, and Rachal. (Oh... and Ratzchel oncem but I think I have an explantion for that)
