February 10, 2005 at 8:59 pm #114274gossipingraeMemberMy name Rachel was most popular in the late 1970s and early 1980s. I was born in 1984, when my mom was only 18. She told me that when she was in her teenage years, there was NOBODY named Rachel. She thought it was really pretty for a girl’s name.
Of course, you all know I’m called Rae. I was supposed to be a boy. That’s what the doctors told my mom all throughout her pregnancy. So naturally, my name was going to be Ray, short for Raymond, who is my mother’s father. When I was born, everyone looked at me and said, “I thought she was going to be a boy.” And my grandfather, who has 3 daughters and no sons, wanted a grandson so badly, so he joked, saying, “Well, I’m still going to call her Ray.” So then my mom decided on Rachel, and everyone calls me Rae now.
Now you all know the story of my name!
February 10, 2005 at 9:12 pm #114275princeGParticipantGeorge was of the most popular in 1900’s ranking 4th but since then there is a dramatic decrease that seems unstoppable in every decade, in 2003 it ranked 170th or something.
However, George is the english translated name for the Greek Giorgos, which is probably the most popular in Greece.February 10, 2005 at 9:14 pm #114263MartinBradleyMember“Martin”
