[Opinions] Re: Results of the Popular US Female Baby Names of the 1880s Polls, Ranked in Order of Biggest Falls in Popularity from Then to Now (according to BtN users)
Names I like/are okey:Albertha, Aletha, Alvena, Arlene, Arvilla, Carolyn, Cathrine, Edna, Elda,
Elfrieda, Ellena, Eulah, Grayce, Helga, Hellen, Honora, Ivah, Izora, Katheryn,
Kathrine, Kathryne, Leatha, Letha, Madora, Rosena, Savilla, Shellie, Verda, Verna.Names I'm surprised got eliminated:
Anotenette, Elizebeth, Ellena, Grayce, Luvenia, Pheobe, Sidney, Sylvania.I know there can be unusal spellings and that's a turn off, but I would bet on these to get more votes(?).Flossie and Floss are silly.
