Question of the Week:Has your taste in names changed over time?

Question of the Week: What were your favorite names when you were younger?  Are they very different from what you like now?

Inspired by a long-running thread on our message boards, with berries discussing what  their favorite names were as teenagers, this question is basically about if and how your taste in names has changed/evolved over time.

Have your older faves held up or do you find them miles away from your taste today–and maybe  a little embarrassing?

Were your younger choices influenced by books you were reading or music or movies or TV shows?
