I love
Amandine!
Amanda still sounds dated to me, I expect it will continue to fall. It's likable enough, though, that it'll probably fall slowly and stay on the charts a while. I haven't met an
Amanda in ten years or so, and never have I met an
Amandine. I dislike
Mandy and Manda as nns, but love
Amy (only as a nn).
A friend of mine used to always say "Huggenkiss" when he said or heard
Amanda.
