I thought it was interesting how the one article touched on how favored names filter down from the upper classes to the lower classes. Names like Lindsay and Courtney and Whitney for example. It doesn't address where the upper class initially gets the names, though.

As for my name, it was super popular the year I was born and it seems to be making a comeback lately among Black males. Apparently, it started out as a boys' name, then a girls' name and now it's back to being a boys' name. I'm gonna get a complex at this rate!
