[Opinions] Re: Kinzey
in reply to a message by A
Kinsey, respelled under the influence of Mackenzie.
I wouldn't really mind Kinsey as a name so much, it'd be just another cute trendy K surname-name.
Except, I have a strong association with the name of Alfred Kinsey - and I'm under the impression that a lot of other people ought to recognize that name, too. So I'm a little nauseated to see Kinsey used as a name.- mirfak

As a given name Kinsey would bring to mind Sue Grafton's detective Kinsey Millhone among mystery fans. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinsey_Millhone

Ha I almost mentioned Alfred Kinsey but then thought I'd pulled my dinosaur stunt too recently with the Paul Anka comment so I'd cool it.

I was going to mention Kinsey too and I’m a lot younger than you!

I thought of Paul Anka too! but I couldn't recall his first name, nor titles any of his songs (he was a little before my time) so I thought I'd keep my probably-irrelevant comments to myself, lol.I think Kinsey is still relevant, though.
Maybe not since Kinsey is getting popular as a name? But I think a lot of folks missed the memo about what he actually did.
