[Opinions] Re: Deborah
in reply to a message by irene
If Deborah is such a disliked name, it's a prime example of a name that's disliked only because it's dated. People hear it, think "Mom/Grandma", don't think any further, and dislike it. The way I automatically disliked Hazel when I was in my teens and twenties.I love Deborah. I'm not good at coming up with words to describe why I like a name. I just love the way Deborah looks and sounds. But I wouldn't have used it because I wouldn't have wanted my daughter to have a dated name all of her life. I think Deborah is a dated name we can say with certainty will come back some day.I hate the spelling Debra, and that was just as popular as Deborah back in the name's heyday. Let's hope that doesn't come back.
