[Opinions] Re: Joan
in reply to a message by Katrine
It's a bit dated still, but it's kind of old enough now that you probably haven't met one. I think if you looked it's probably still around as a middle name. Which if I was to use it, would probably be how I'd use it.
I think Johanna/Joanna is more common (and if you were pronouncing it with the YO- opening I much prefer), but in the single syllable English pronunciation I think Joan is probably liable to come back in the next 10-15 years depending on broader trends
I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I intended to be.
