There are a lot of Jennifers around my age (mostly because of the movie Love Story, I guess) but in all actually Jennifer's a really old name.
On the other hand, if you introduce me to someone named Farrah, Rhiannon or Tennille, I can probably guess within a year or two exactly when she was born.  Or at least that her parents have seen I Love The 70's lots and lots of times.

We actually had twin sisters named Angie & Aimee. Guess what year they were born? I honestly had to fight to keep a straight face! (I'm sure kddani or fire1977 can verify this!)
My real name wasn't popular when I was born (which is how I got a nickname so fast!), but now every tenth 20-something has it. I kinda liked having a different, but not strange, name.
