Help[Opinions] Re: Micro generation name
in reply to a message by Francisinfp5w4
I feel like most names, that are popular, are popular for two generations. I don't find this unusual. Ones that weren't popular at any other times are harder to find, but exist.
For example, Caitlin and Hayley were common for Millennials, but also Gen Z. The spellings changed a bit, I feel like a Millennial is more likely to be Caitlin, Katelyn, Hayley or Haley, whereas a Gen Z is more likely to be Kaitlyn or Hailey.
I can think of so many names that were popular among Millennials and Gen Z, such as Hayley, Caitlin, Ashley, Samantha, Alexis, Alyssa, Lauren, Dylan, Justin, Natalie, Taylor, Jessica, Jasmine, Morgan, Jordan etc.
I think a few decades ago, names stayed popular for even longer so they often spanned two generations or three (but they were usually classics, so don't count, I guess). I mean, maybe Carol or Pamela, but then again I'm not sure if at any point in history they were already popular.
