[Opinions] Re: Wendy
in reply to a message by Perrine
I like Wendy, but it feels somewhat juvenile to me, probably because Barry likely got the baby-speak "fwendy".
Gwendolen is lovely and I think Wendy is a nice nickname for that, and more interesting than Gwen, which seems to be getting a bit overdone.
My boyfriend has an aunt named Wendy, she's in her late 50's (?) and that's probably the age group I'd associate it with. I don't hate names from that generation as much as some people seem to, but they do feel dated since they are most people (who are having children's) parent's names.
