[quote=Anonymous]I think a better description of what op is probably looking for would be "soap opera" names as opposed to "preppy" names. I agree with what PPs have said about preppy names being organic or random nicknames for either generic family names (William, John) or crazy old school family names (wentworth). I think the 80s soap opera and John Houghs (sp?) movie names like Trevor, Hunter, and Preston are faux preppy. The real preps I have known have boring (George, John, Mary, Elizabeth) or ugly names that were given out of birth-rite and not intended to be a cool name and are typically from the wrong generation. Think Barbara, Wallace, Beatrice, or Archibald on 30-somethings. And, of course, the catchy and sometimes inappropriately juvenile nicknames for III, IV, etc. [/quote]
