[Opinions] Re: Candace
in reply to a message by Lily
Someone posted on this recently.
I prefer Candace or Candis... the latter of which because of an old friend w/ the name.
Not sure how many I've met. It's around without being overdone and I like that about it. I have met at least one or 2 born in the 80s and another born in the 50s or 60s, so it's not limited to the 70s, though it might be more common in that decade... It's been around for many years, so it gives the name a bit of weight (in the good sense of the word).
Most of the ones I've met have just been Candace (or alt. sp.) w/out anyone I knew of calling them Candy unless they were ok w/ it...It's the same # of syls, so it's not too big a stretch to insist on the full name.
