[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]I see several missing that are common in DC circles.[/b] Also, where are all of the trendy last names used as first names?[/quote] Such as?[/quote] Benjamin and William are glaring omissions if we're talking DC. Also there's no Abigail, no Penelope no Evelyn. I personally haven't heard them in DC, but I'm surprised not to see Piper and Harper on the list. But, I am surprised to see Laura, Helen and Miranda on that list. And who the heck is naming their kid Ned?[/quote] Agree about Penelope and Evelyn. They should be listed. Abigail is very 2004. Feeling pretty played out. Benjamin and William are the kind of "classic" names that get used a lot more in conservative DC than in other parts of the country. And they're too common across the social spectrum to be considered yuppie names. Piper and Harper feel very middle-America to me. Popular, but I wouldn't call them upscale.[/quote]
