We called our daughter "Raelene", she's not thanked us for it. My sister-in-law is known as "Teddy", she doesn't permit anybody to call her "Edna" including her parents.

The names of my grand and great grandmothers are being used again. Social Security is a good source for this. This is the 2017 list. I could not find the 2018 list.
