Help[Opinions] Re: Names That Are in Danger Of Extinction
in reply to a message by EsmeLily
Was Almond ever a thing?
I believe that these will come back:
Barney - it's kind of vintage cool, it will come back eventually. The purple dinosaur isn't a bad association. It kind of has the same style as Harvey, which would have had a huge comeback as well, were it not for that really awful person.
Shirley - totally believe that this will have a huge comeback soon. It already feels cool to me. The world is always looking for new -ley names and this one will soon feel fresh enough. Sh-names will come back into style at some point and then its comeback will be huge.
Sandy - I also see this coming back as a full nature name for girls and possibly boys. It fits in with the River, Ocean kind of trend.
Beverly - this will have a comeback, too. One letter away from Everly.
Coralie - feels pretty and vintage.
I can also see Prudence becoming more popular again and some might be Prue (maybe not Prudy).
Many of the others are nicknames. I'm pretty sure that Kathy, Cathy, Kitty, Vicky, Terry, Tammy and Patty (not sure why they picked unusual spellings) will come back at some point, simply because Katherine, Catherine, Theresa, Tamara and Patricia will come back and after decades of Katies people will look for now underused nicknames at some point.

It was. It cracked the top 1000 in 1882, 1884 and 1885. It last appears on the SSA data in 1979, so it must be extinct as of now.
Haha wow, I never expected that :O Thanks for letting me know!
