Who else has been watching the popular Hulu mini series that’s been airing this week, Candy?!
Since watching it I keep thinking about Candace / Candy and it’s kind of growing on me. What do you guys think? Too dated? Too cutesy? Too wordy? Or is it fun and bright?
It’s dated, but also kind of fun! It has a nice sound, and it’s in kind of an interesting category where it’s a well-known first name that also sounds kind of surnamey.
If I had a family member I wanted to honor named [name_f]Candace[/name_f], I would totally stick it in the middle spot.
I really like [name_f]Candy[/name_f]!
I think [name_f]Candy[/name_f] works! I don’t like [name_f]Candace[/name_f] as much, but it’s a safer longer name. [name_f]My[/name_f] aunt is a [name_f]Candelaria[/name_f], and I think that could work in [name_f]English[/name_f] as well.
I read a book with a [name_f]Candace[/name_f] in it and it did grow on me. I don’t mind it and would like to meet one
I love [name_f]Candy[/name_f]! So sweet, lol! I would, however give it a full name like [name_f]Candace[/name_f] or [name_f]Candela[/name_f]
I kind of like it 
I know a few grown women with the name who all seem to wear it just fine, but it’s one of those names that has an unfortunate reputation where I live for some reason 
It’s not my thing, but Candy works as a nickname.
I think [name_f]Candace[/name_f] works just fine but [name_f]Candy[/name_f] feels like one of those names that may be better left in the past just because of the implications it has when bestowed on a woman.
[name_f]Candace[/name_f] brings to mind all the alternate spellings of the 80s (Kandyce, [name_f]Kandice[/name_f], etc), which has kind of ruined it for me but I do like the original spelling. [name_f]Candy[/name_f] is a no for me, but maybe [name_f]Caddie[/name_f] as a nickname?
I really like [name_f]Candy[/name_f] as a nickname but maybe not for [name_f]Candace[/name_f].
It would be super cute for [name_f]Caroline[/name_f], [name_f]Cordelia[/name_f], or really any C name.
