| I'm a middle school teacher and I have taught oodles of Alices in the past 5 years. Not so many Alisons among my students, though quite a few among my 50-something friends. Alice is lovely, but I have a soft spot in my heart for Alison because it's so popular in Britain, where my mum grew up. OP, you could get the Alison comeback going! |
| Alice! |
| Allison is a much prettier name. |
| I'm an Alison born in mid-70's, one syllable last name. I have a 2 syllable middle name and have always like the flow. 3,2,1. I like my name |
