Gabrielle/Gabriella is very popular. Cp has her bff, 2 more on her team, plus at least 3 at school. Former-cp's roommate is also a Gabby.
Definitely a HUGE difference between Northern and Southern names!
I'm not going to lie, but honestly I though these names were more cultural than geographical.
For instance if I meet a Tinsleigh, Kinsleeee, Paisleeeeeeeigh, Keaton, Jaxieee, McGilligan etc I would just assume she was white. Could be white in SC could be white in Massachusetts. Maybe in the South they might stick on a hyphen with a Mae or Ann tto turn it into a double name, but for real, I just thought that was the trend for what some white people. I didn't know these names weren't national (problems).
Same thing with black people and 'Asia and 'iyah names I.e My'Asia, Malaysia, Janiyah, Kaniyah (the last two are relatives of mine btw)....
Like I just thought those were the cultural trends nation wide
(Btw on Project Runway Jr there was a kid from Cali named "Peyti" so what's happening on the west coast? That sounds southern right (according to this)?)
And yes I'm aware that what I said sounds stereotypical, but it is what it is.
Eye opening to know I can get a job out of state and escape these names
