Help[Opinions] Re: Megan
in reply to a message by Perrine
Megan was oh so very common when I was growing up I grew to be a lttle sick of it. It's so overused in my age group here that I have 2 seperate cousins named it and 1 2nd cousin. On my adolecent sports team of 12 girls we had 2 Megans. So many...
But as I have gotten older I am slightly more accustomed to it. In part because I am socialising with a lot more age groups now than merely my own so the diversity alone has helped it I think. Though I'll admit I still don't love it necissarily. *Don't tell my cousins haha* That's interesting that it makes you think of the color green as it does for me as well. But more green and Turquoise than green and gold. Side note it's cool that certain names can make you think of different colors.
I don't think it is really "dated" yet because I don't really consider a name "dated" until the majority have reached thier 30s and most I know are still in their 20s. THe youngest Megans I know are around middle school aged but no younger; as of late I haven't come across a baby Megan myself in at least a decade.
Megan is the most common spelling here and the Meghan's (the runner up spelling) usually have it mispelled as Megan. I once knew a girl who spelled it Maygin once and that to me is just tragic. But I do think that the Meghan spelling will have it's time in the sun due to Meghan Markle and I attribute it's return to the charts a result of her.
