been wondering why some name from early 20th c late 19th eg ruby daisy ruby violet iris etc for girls or alfie archie arthur wilfred etc for boys are cool again. yet others seem destined to remain unpoular for along time to come thinking here of names such as male names stanley ernest percy etc or female names gertrude gladys emerald doris dorothy etc
any opinions as to what makes the difference ?
