[Opinions] Re: Celica
It's all Toyota Celica to me. And they are bringing the model back soon.

Really? I didn't know that. The car model actually influenced the name's usage. I wonder if Celica will re-enter the SSA data once the car model is brought back.
The car influenced the name's usage? I would be curious to see the stats on that. Sometimes luxury car names are used as names but the Celica was not a luxury car and I would have been surprised to meet someone named Celica at the height of the car model's popularity.Edited to add: I see that you are the one that added the info to the user submitted entry about the name's use being influenced by the car. That's some proof. Ha ha.

The car model was produced between 1970 and 2006 and the name was recorded between those years (https://www.behindthename.com/top/beyond?name=Celica&gender=&type=percent). Either way, Celica sounds better as a name than Lexus or Porsche, to be honest.
