oh, definitely. i also noticed that dated women's names get so much more flack than dated men's names- "nerdy old man" or maybe "grumpy old man" vs "ugly woman woman with terrible clothing".
i'd still be hesitant though to use a name that's so widely disliked, even if it's for a minor reason like sounding dated (i'm still hesitant about using Irene as a full time name for myself irl part for that reason). i think enough time has passed though that it might look a little hip nowadays- it'll definitely be coming back. if i do ever use it, hopefully it's right before that, so i'll be a trendsetter lol.
