In recent years, “old lady/male names” have become popular among parents-to-be. Many people are rediscovering the charm of names that have fallen out of favor in recent decades and breathing new life into them. Eleanor, Henry, Dorothy, Theodore, Louise and Waylon have overtaken trendy names like Jaden and Kayla.
However, according to young people, our concept of “auntie’s name” is completely off. At least that’s what nurse and TikTok creator Kelly Cole (@kelleykelleykelley) recently learned.
“The teens in the youth unit I was working with told me that my name was their aunt’s name,” she began. “I was surprised, so we started talking about which was my grandmother’s name and which was my younger name.”
I’m surprised too. I’m in my early 40s (i.e. not old) and I know a lot of Kelly/Kelly/Kellis. Admittedly, I don’t know if any of them are young There is no one who is better than me but can be considered. old. Should we simply say “of a particular era”? Let me be clear, Kelly. still As of 2023, the last year for which we have data, it ranks among the top 1,000 baby names in the United States. It is far from its peak popularity in 1977.
But I think 48 is old when you’re a teenager.
