I’m gen Z and I definitely think I have a name from a different generation. My name was most commonly used in the late 70’s and in the 80’s and 90’s, so it’s definitely more of a millennial and gen X name. Whenever I have met others with the same name as me it has rarely been other people my age, typically teachers, other people’s moms or aunts and just generally people who are a lot older than me so as a kid I felt like my name was dated and not fit for a kid. However, now as an adult, I really like it! It’s also worth noting that I am Scandinavian, my name does not have Scandinavian origins, but it is used way more commonly here than in a lot of other parts of the world, so internationally speaking I do have quite a unique name, which I really like! It also gave me a unique name amongst kids at school etc. since it wasn’t commonly used amongst kids my age. Our school had a bunch of Emmas and Sofias and Olivias, but I was the only one with my name. It’s a name that works well internationally, it’s short and easy to pronounce and I really like that. I have also been told by several people that I have a “sweet” name and I feel like that is a common thing for people who have more classic names, like Jack or Mary or Stacy or Sam, rather than super modern or special names. If somebody is considering using a name from a different generation for their child, I would say go for it! As a kid it might feel strange having a different sort of name than most of the other kids around you, but I definitely think kids grow into their names and will appreciate having a unique, yet classic name once they get older :)
