[Opinions] Re: Patricia
It's my sister's name. I have that funny little feeling towards it that you have towards the name of a family member, kind of like you have a vested interest in it. My sister is fifty years old---though not a grandmother, and very unlikely to become a grandmother any time soon, since she had children late. My sister is always called Patty.I like the name Patricia---it's soft, flowing, long, elegant. I can see why it was so popular for so long. I know that my sister does not appreciate having such a common name, though.I don't think it will be ready for a revival any time soon. I don't see that happening, if it happens, for another forty years or so. It needed an even longer rest than it's currently had, because it was popular for a long, long time.
