I agree with [name]Mischa[/name] …its neither - but it is trendy(in a good way). I really like the name !! I say go for it.
I used to really love the name [name]Connor[/name], I thought it ages well with the child, then I met a boy named [name]Conner[/name], yes conner with an E. Either way, its the same name, and he turned out to be horrible, so it really ruined the name for me. Its also turning to be really popular around here, but its a cute name!
[name]Connor[/name] is okay, but [name]Conor[/name] makes me positively swoon. [name]Connor[/name]/[name]Conner[/name] do nothing for me.
I definitely think Connor has been overused and is a bit boring now, but in a few decades it may seem fresh enough again to bestow upon some new little ones.
I find it dated. It jumped in popularity in the 90’s, hit it’s peak in 2004, and is now lingering/dropping on the charts. There’s nothing wrong with the name, and I’d use it if you like it, but it does have a ‘90’s’ feel to it for me.
Thanks again everyone…we have decided against using [name]Connor[/name], I appreciate everyone’s input!
