this thread is making me feel so old, since I GRADUATED in 2007 lol!
I went to a private boarding school and the entire school had less than 200 students, and from my memory, most of the students had unusual names. I did know a handful of Rebecca’s and Joshua’s and Brittany’s (including a pair of twins with these names lol), and I’m not sure where my yearbook is, but some of the names I remember include:
- [name_m]Adi[/name_m] (a boy)
- [name_m]Dudley[/name_m]
- [name_f]Mariela[/name_f]
- [name_f]Charlotte[/name_f]
- [name_f]Sarai[/name_f]
- [name_m]Hadji[/name_m]
- [name_m]Akira[/name_m]
- [name_f]Chloe[/name_f]
- [name_m]Dawson[/name_m]
- [name_f]Bethany[/name_f]
- [name_f]Ariana[/name_f]
- [name_m]Francois[/name_m] and [name_f]Frida[/name_f] (twins)
- [name_f]Alana[/name_f]
There were some normal ones like [name_f]Erin[/name_f], [name_m]Adam[/name_m], [name_m]Joe[/name_m], [name_f]Chelsea[/name_f], etc., typical 80s/90s names, but it felt like the minority of the class. We did have students from all over though, including [name_f]Romania[/name_f], [name_m]Brazil[/name_m], [name_m]South[/name_m] [name_f]Korea[/name_f], and Vietnam.
