I don't care for that type of name either, but in the future there will be a bunch of 80 year old Kaylee Haylee Baylee whatevers- and it won't be childish sounding any more. It will be an old lady name. That's the way trends work. The fresh and hot and edgy zubaz (so to speak) of years ago are the dumpy has beens of today. People who said the word "cool" were once dangerously hip. Names are no different when it comes to changing trends.

Well seeing as I've been studying anthroponymy for close to a decade now, I have quite a grip on how trends work - that doesn't stop them from sounding stupid and not aging well.

Well whatever. You're clearly not open to any kind of discussion. Hope naming other people's kids is a lucrative business for you.

I'm not out to name other people's kids. I'm stating what I know from what I have studied - and passing that information on and hoping that more kid's don't get saddled with crap names. *shrug*
