Help[Opinions] Re: If you had a girl in the 1950s, what would you name her?
in reply to a message by Rainya
This is so hard, because I can see into the future. Immediately I thought "Helen!" But Helen was already becoming old fashioned by the 50s, wasn't it?
If I was a time traveler enjoying some midcentury tourism, I'd pick Helen, Roberta, Vivian, Rosemary, Or Veronica maybe?
If I was actually a person born in the 1930s, though, would I like those names??
My grandma always wished she could have named my aunt "Roxanne" but she was talked out of it. So I'd name my 1950s baby..... Roxanne Rita.
