[Opinions] Ada
Thoughts on Ada?I am confused by it getting so popular now. I liked it about 10ish years ago, as a teenager, when it appeared in a book I was reading.I thought if it had the potential to get common it would have gotten popular already as it fits in the late 90s/early-mid 2000s trend of names such as: Ava, Violet, Lily, Ruby.Kind of wondering what took it so long.Do you like Ada? Or is it too boring now that lots of girls named Ava and quite a few named Adeline are around?Please rate my list: https://www.behindthename.com/pnl/6232

It's a lovely short name and a palindrome besides. I really like Ada. Maybe I should add pronounced AY-dah only, though.

Ada is nice and girly. I like it. May get mistaken for Ava, though. I also really love Adelina.

I think Ada is lovely. It was my paternal great grandmother’s name, she was Ada Grace. A very sweet combo. My maternal great great grandmother was named Ada Florence, which as I’ve mentioned a few times before, is a combo that I find absolutely beautiful. It’s just a shame she was such a nasty lady!

I like it but only with the add-ah pronunciation like Princess Atta in A Bug's Life, not a huge fan of ay-da or ah-da.

I love Ada!I think it is getting popular, like you said, with the rise of Ava and Adeline as a less popular alternative.I also like Adelina? (I am aware that no one asked ;)
