Help[Opinions] Re: Why is Reginald unpopular?
in reply to a message by aussiechic04
Reginald isn't a bad name, but it is very dated, and its time to come back into widespread popularity hasn't come around again. I did know a Reginald in college, so he would be about 30 now. He went by Reggie.
I put it in a similar category as Harold (#962 in the USA) and Gerald. Reginald is a bit longer, more unwieldy, and has old fashioned preppy vibes. Ronald has more pop culture references around it, so I think that has kept it a little more in use.
I do think Reginald will come back into fashion before Floyd and Ethel, but I think Alfred will start coming back into popularity first.
