[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Karla/Carla is going to make a comeback soon, watch. I know 2 born within the last year and a half to entirely separate families with no relation to each other.[/quote]

It's funny to me when names that are extremely common in other countries, like to the point of being almost ubiquitous, suddenly catch on in the US. Carla/Karla is insanely common in Europe, with a lot of crossover appeal between languages. Top 10 or top 20 in Spain I believe, but also fairly popular in France and Germany. This specific style of name is really popular in Europe in general now -- two-syllables, simple, easy to pronounce in multiple languages. Lina and Thea are two others I see that are pretty popular in multiple EU countries (though Thea has more variation in pronunciation). I have also seen Thea jumping in popularity in the US though Lina does not seem to have caught on as much and I think it's one of my favorites of this style of name.[/quote]
We always seem to be behind on the name trends! 😂 Isla, Iris, Lucy, Elsie, Eloise, and Rory were popular in the UK for years before they really took off over here. I've seen Theodora starting to get popular for girls here. I imagine that we will start to see Thea more as it will be used as a nn for Theodora (along with Teddy).[/quote]
