[Opinions] Re: If you had a girl in the 1950s, what would you name her?
So many lovely ones! I'm using a UK list; our naming habits were largely British until, in the mid-1970s, we finally got TV and with it, exposure to all things American.Pamela Margaret? Rosemary Jennifer? Gillian Shirley?

That's actually really interesting. That makes me realize the names I dislike are ones with British influence.
