When you think of a girl with high class, beauty, wits, and sophistication from an affluent place what names do you associate with them? I.e. socialites, or gossip girl archetypes. For a psychology study :). Thanks guys for the help!
I think of:
[name_u]Blair[/name_u]
[name_f]Lauren[/name_f]
[name_f]Alexa[/name_f]
[name_f]Sophia[/name_f]
[name_u]Sloane[/name_u]
[name_f]Blanche[/name_f]
[name_f]Charlotte[/name_f]
“high class, beauty, wits, and sophistication from an affluent place”
Hmmm, makes me think of the names:
[name_u]Simone[/name_u] (new a gorgeous girl with this name I worked with)
[name_f]Giselle[/name_f] (giselle budchen -maybe misspelled this model’s last name)
[name_f]Elena[/name_f] (sounds gorgeous)
[name_f]Esther[/name_f] (esther canadas the model)
[name_f]Melania[/name_f] (one of theresa’s daughters from the real housewives of new jersey)
[name_f]Isobel[/name_f] -only this spelling for some reason, since it is so pretty in its original spelling, as not to need enhancements.
[name_f]Mariana[/name_f] -same as [name_f]Elena[/name_f]~other names: [name_f]Oriana[/name_f] -one of my favorites.
Blair is my first thought, too. I tend to think of common names like [name_f]Jennifer[/name_f], [name_f]Anna[/name_f], [name_f]Emma[/name_f], but the latter might be because of Emma Roberts. Mostly, I think of longer, more ‘serious’ names like [name_f]Victoria[/name_f], [name_f]Jennette[/name_f], [name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f]… I think there could be a few unique names like Troian, something worldly, but I think that would be far and few between.
Socialites and gossip girl archtypes don’t seem (to me) to fit the description of necessarily possessing wits or sophistication. I live in Palm [name_m]Beach[/name_m]. Beauty or being born into the right family (I assume that’s what you mean by “high class”?) can buy you entry where other qualities are distinctly lacking.
Those who are born into it tend to be, in my experience, seeking to distinguish themselves by either going with WASP-y names. There’s a general tendency to shy away from “trends”. I tend to think of:
[name_f]Alexandra[/name_f]
[name_f]Lauren[/name_f]
[name_f]Jane[/name_f]
[name_f]Claire[/name_f]
[name_f]Margaret[/name_f]
[name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f]
[name_f]Katherine[/name_f]/[name_f]Catherine[/name_f]/[name_f]Kathleen[/name_f]/[name_f]Caitlin[/name_f]/etc.
[name_u]Whitney[/name_u]
[name_f]Audrey[/name_f]
[name_f]Sarah[/name_f]
[name_f]Samantha[/name_f]
[name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f]
[name_f]Kathryn[/name_f]
[name_f]Miranda[/name_f]
[name_f]Jessica[/name_f]
[name_u]Chelsea[/name_u]
[name_f]Charlotte[/name_f]
[name_f]Victoria[/name_f]
I think of;
[name_f]Eleanor[/name_f]
[name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f]
[name_f]Catherine[/name_f]
[name_f]Emily[/name_f]
[name_f]Alexa[/name_f]
[name_f]Sophia[/name_f]
[name_f]Isabella[/name_f]/[name_f]Isabelle[/name_f]
[name_f]Margaret[/name_f]
[name_f]Violet[/name_f]
[name_f]Annabel[/name_f]
[name_f]Maude[/name_f]
[name_f]Octavia[/name_f]
[name_f]Rosalind[/name_f]
[name_f]Rosamund[/name_f]
[name_f]Clara[/name_f]
[name_f]Olivia[/name_f]
[name_f]Lillian[/name_f]
[name_f]Claire[/name_f]/[name_f]Clarissa[/name_f]
I think of…
[name_f]Rose[/name_f]
[name_f]Victoria[/name_f]
[name_f]Elizabeth[/name_f]
[name_f]Anne[/name_f]
[name_f]Catherine[/name_f]
[name_f]Nancy[/name_f]
[name_f]Jane[/name_f]
[name_f]Catherine[/name_f]
[name_f]Marie[/name_f]
[name_f]Natasha[/name_f]
[name_f]Katarina[/name_f]
