Hello, what do y’all think of the name [name_f]Carrie/name_f, as a full name? I know it’s outdated, but I find it super sweet! And I love it that it’s a nod to [name_f]Star[/name_f] Wars, without making people automatically assume, unless if you were a hard core fan.
I think [name_f]Carrie[/name_f] is cute! I know a [name_f]Carrie[/name_f], and I think it’s her full name. I like it as a nod to [name_f]Star[/name_f] Wars!
I love the name. [name_f]My[/name_f] first association is the [name_m]Stephen[/name_m] [name_m]King[/name_m] novel / [name_f]Sissy[/name_f] Spacek movie, though. Which I love, but it’s admittedly not the greatest thing to think of when thinking of someone’s name. That said, there are plenty of other more positive associations that balance it out.
Let me say first that I LOVE the book/movie [name_f]Carrie[/name_f] and that informs my answer. Since it’s such a tremendous presence in my mind, [name_f]Carrie[/name_f]‘s slightly sinister to me as a result, but I know two Kerrys and never thought anything of it, so I think it can move beyond this 70s’ [name_m]Stephen[/name_m] [name_m]King[/name_m] thriller.
Personally, I would opt for [name_f]Caroline[/name_f] nn [name_f]Carrie[/name_f] rather than [name_f]Carrie[/name_f] as a standalone. But apart from my minor reservation, it’s sweet and old-fashioned and wholeheartedly deserves a revival.
I don’t think it’s outdated at all! It’s sweet, although I think I slightly prefer it as a nickname for [name_f]Caroline[/name_f]? I also agree that it’s a great choice for a [name_f]Star[/name_f] Wars fan. I love subtle honors, they feel so special.
Personally, I would pair [name_f]Carrie[/name_f] with a long, maybe slightly dramatic middle name, maybe…
Carrie is solid and sweet, I haven’t ever thought of it as a way to honour [name_f]Carrie[/name_f] [name_m]Fisher[/name_m], but that’s a great idea! To be honest my first thought is the [name_m]Stephen[/name_m] [name_m]King[/name_m] novel, which isn’t a bad thing in my opinion, but it does make [name_f]Carrie[/name_f] feel slightly sinister.
