What do you think about [name_f]Betty[/name_f] and [name_f]Sally[/name_f]? Out of date? Due for a come back?
I think they could have a comeback! [name_f]Sally[/name_f] especially, but [name_f]Betty[/name_f] too.
I feel like [name_f]Sally[/name_f] will need more time for a complete revival, but they both would be cute on a little girl.
I think they’re both ripe for revival. In fact I’ve considered them both (as nicknames) for our little one on the way.
Out of date. I prefer them as nicknames. Ideas:
Sally:
[name_f]Sarah[/name_f] (traditional)
[name_f]Rosalie[/name_f]
[name_f]Rosalind[/name_f]
[name_f]Rosalinda[/name_f]
[name_f]Rosalia[/name_f]
[name_f]Rosalyn[/name_f]
[name_f]Rosalynn[/name_f]
Other names that have “sal” or maybe even “sar” in them
Betty:
[name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f]
[name_f]Elsbeth[/name_f]
[name_f]Beth[/name_f]
[name_f]Bethanne[/name_f]
Literally anything by else containing “bet”
Definitely! [name_f]Betty[/name_f] will get a boost from [name_u]Ryan[/name_u] and [name_u]Blake[/name_u] Lively, and [name_f]Sally[/name_f] feels so sweet to me.
Totally due for a comeback! I like [name_f]Sally[/name_f] a bit more as a full name, but also as a nn for [name_f]Sarah[/name_f], [name_f]Susanna[/name_f] or [name_f]Salome[/name_f]…love [name_f]Salome[/name_f] . [name_f]Betty[/name_f] I find way more nick-namey. [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f], [name_f]Beatrice[/name_f], [name_f]Beatrix[/name_f], [name_f]Beatriz[/name_f], [name_f]Bernadette[/name_f] or [name_f]Bellatrix[/name_f]. I live in a city in the midwest U.S., & I have two acquaintances will young daughters called [name_f]Betty[/name_f]. I think it may be a fluke & not actually getting popular, but who knows. [name_f]Hope[/name_f] this helps.
Awee love it!!
It does give me the vibes of the TV series Mad Men though (names of the Mother/Daughter). Not bad association but some people might make the connection.
I love [name_f]Sally[/name_f]! [name_f]Betty[/name_f]’s not my favourite, but I think either name would work just fine. [name_m]Don[/name_m]’t think they’re too dated.
Sally isn’t my fave but [name_f]Betty[/name_f] feels funky, retro and cool
I like both and can see both of them coming back! I prefer [name_f]Sallie[/name_f] though but I like [name_f]Sally[/name_f] too. Both [name_f]Betty[/name_f] and [name_f]Sally[/name_f] are very sweet and I can see them fitting right in with other nickname names that are popular currently
I definitely see [name_f]Betty[/name_f] making a comeback soon! Not a “next top 10 name” comeback, but definitely gaining more usage. [name_f]Sally[/name_f] may need a little more time but it doesn’t sound all that dated to me- I think a little [name_f]Sally[/name_f] would be sweet!
Definitely do for a comeback. Very cute vintage feel to both of them! I love [name_f]Betty[/name_f] the most, but mostly because I love [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f] in general.
I really like [name_f]Betty[/name_f]. It has a lot of vintage charm, à la [name_f]Betty[/name_f] Grable and [name_f]Bettie[/name_f] [name_u]Page[/name_u]. Plus, “a [name_f]Betty[/name_f]” means a beautiful and glamorous woman. Who wouldn’t want to be a Betty?
[name_f]Sally[/name_f] seems less glamorous to me than [name_f]Betty[/name_f], but I think it’s a nice name too. Salomé NN [name_f]Sally[/name_f] would be darling.
Sally yes! [name_f]Betty[/name_f] I’ve never liked much, but I love [name_f]Bess[/name_f], [name_f]Bessie[/name_f], [name_f]Betsan[/name_f], and [name_f]Bet[/name_f].
Not a huge fan of [name_f]Betty[/name_f] (prefer [name_f]Betsy[/name_f] myself), but [name_f]Sally[/name_f] has been growing on me. Regardless of personal taste, though, I don’t think either of these is going to feel dated forever. In fact, I think they are certainly ready for a comeback by now! How fresh and cute would it be to meet a little [name_f]Sally[/name_f] or [name_f]Betty[/name_f] today?!
Betty deserves the biggest comeback. It’s been on my mind a lot lately. I used to hate it. I thought it was so “old-ladyish.” [name_f]Betty[/name_f] really is so cute, but also spunky. I feel like it would have to be paired with a killer middle name though, because if it were to be paid with another “cutesy” name, I think it would sound like a cartoon character.
Sally, on the other hand, I think needs a little more time haha, but it is really pretty!
I actually know a [name_f]Betty[/name_f], who is just [name_f]Betty[/name_f]. She is a senior in high school
I love them! They’re adorable and I love vintage names. They could definitely make a comeback! [name_u]Ryan[/name_u] [name_u]Reynolds[/name_u] and [name_u]Blake[/name_u] Lively had a [name_f]Betty[/name_f] last year
I strongly dislike [name_f]Betty[/name_f]. [name_f]Sally[/name_f] is okay though! I know one girl named [name_f]Sally[/name_f], she wears it so well and is the sweetest person!!
