Help[Opinions] Re: Stephanie
in reply to a message by Martha
I'm fond of Stephanie. It has sounds in it that I like and I enjoy the way it looks written out. To me, it has substance and interest. It helps that all the Stephanies I've known have been kind, strong, intelligent people.
I love Stevie Nicks, and she is a Stephanie, born 1948... there is definitely an argument for Stephanie existing outside of the 80s, as RoxStar pointed out.
I'd enjoy having a little Stephanie in my preschool class. I think the sounds would provide a nice contrast to this era of "liquid" names. http://www.babynamewizard.com/archives/2012/7/the-rise-of-liquid-names

I just watched an episode of "A Crime to Remember" that featured the abduction and murder of 14-year-old Stephanie Bryan in 1955. I thought, "Wow, a Stephanie born in 1940!"
The question isn't really whether or not Stephanie existed outside the 1980s, though. It's been in the top thousand in the US, with the exception of one year, since 1896, so obviously it did. The question is whether or not it experienced a surge of popularity and then a fall, tying it to a two or three decade period. I think it's hard to argue that Stephanie isn't so tied.
