I'd really like to throw myself down on the floor and have a full blown temper tantrum.

When I was in school it was all Amys, Susans, and Karens.
Susan is totally unfashionable, but I predict a comeback in the next 5years.

"Old-fashioned" sounding girls' names are very in right now, so a comeback for Susan wouldn't surprise me at all.

It seems like it's just follows fashion trends when a sound catches on. Here's an old article pondering the same question:
Interesting article. And a Buffy mention, too!
Buffy, despite a fanatic cult devotion to the vampire slayer, has not breached the Top 1,000 (although Willow has been climbing modestly since 1998).

I'm really happy with the names of our kids. I think it is very unlikely there will ever be another one in a class, but they aren't totally out there celebrity kids' names.

I think we have to get past my cohort who all went to school with a tonne of Susans. Actually, I'm turning 40, so my cohort is pretty well passed it's child bearing prime.

Really, it's the person who makes (or breaks) a name. I once knew a Shirlee who was cute as a button and fun as hell, so the "old lady" name (as I first thought) became a cute and fitting name for her. I also knew a Chantel that ended up being one of my best friends. So, neither name is one I would like, but I have very good associations with both. Hell, my own name probably makes some people crazy but I love it (Monti).
