Question of the Week: Which, if any, names do you think will never come back?
What boys names and what girls’ names do you think have zero chance of making a comeback, and why?
Too stereotyped?
Bad, bad namesake—real or fictional?
Unpleasant/ugly sound?
Too tied to one era or event?
Or is there a chance for every name–even Adolph–to be resurrected?
And let us know if you have any ideas for a great Question of the Week.
