Does anyone else love “mom” names?

Interesting question. A “Mom” name to me is a name for a woman born in the early 40’s while I imagine for a lot of berries, their moms might have been born far more recently!

I do find that I like female names from all different generations, from [name_f]Sandra[/name_f] to [name_f]Susanne[/name_f], [name_u]Beverly[/name_u] to [name_f]Lillian[/name_f], [name_f]Jillian[/name_f] to [name_u]Holly[/name_u].

I think as girls grow older the names they might have dismissed as mom names become precious as they lose their own mothers and aunts. I know that has happened to me.

I would love to meet little girls named [name_f]Barbara[/name_f], [name_u]Jean[/name_u], [name_f]Ginnie[/name_f], [name_u]Marie[/name_u], and the like because it would be like my late Mom and her friends come back to life.

I looove 80s and 90s names, which to me are contemporary to my peers but for kids born today (and even in the past 10-15 years) are considered mom names!
