I am in love with the name [name_u]Cassidy[/name_u], and [name_f]Cassie[/name_f], and thought [name_u]Cassidy[/name_u] would be a good first name, and [name_f]Cassie[/name_f] as a potential nickname. What do you guys think? Is it too dated? Thanks!

Cassidy is totally usable. It’s not THE most dated of dated names, but I do associate it with people born in the 90s.

Cassandra is a more timeless alternative, or [name_f]Cassia[/name_f] is more current. But [name_u]Cassidy[/name_u] really is a perfectly nice name. :slight_smile:

I like [name_u]Cassidy[/name_u]! Its very lively and zippy. Definitely prefer it to [name_f]Cassandra[/name_f]. I don’t agree that [name_f]Cassandra[/name_f] is more “timeless.” I think [name_u]Cassidy[/name_u] just became more generally popular more recently (1980s vs 40s). The “sandra” part of [name_f]Cassandra[/name_f] sounds really dated to me.

Hope this helps. :slight_smile:
