babynamesWhat names do you guys think of as new classics? Like, names that became popular relatively recently (in the last 20 years) but have staying power, rather than being merely trendy.
I think that Ryan is a new classic. My brother 21 year old brother is named Ryan, and he always had another Ryan on his teams and in his classes, but its still as popular now as it was 21 years ago when my mother named him.
I also think that Samantha may be a new classic. Personally, I always group it in with 80's names, but according to the ssa list it is still stable even after the steep rise in popularity, so I guess it has staying power. Also, maybe Lauren for girls?
