Help[Opinions] Re: Nevaeh
in reply to a message by number1212
Though Nevaeh was started on its way by Sonny Sandoval's mentioning his daughter's name on "Cribs", I do think within a couple of years after its rise started it was being discussed widely enough on the Internet that many people who had never heard of P.O.D. had heard of the name. The popularity of the name therefore quickly eclipsed the popularity of the group.
A question for you would be what is the social class background of the kids you work with? Like most suddenly popular names which are completely new inventions, Nevaeh appealed much more to blue collar parents who did not have college educations. College educated parents are much more likely to want names which have a past history of use, and so are the first to revive names from previous generations that have been out of style for a while. So if the kids you work with mostly have parents with a 4 year college degree or more, it wouldn't be a surprise that you haven't personally run across a Nevaeh.
