[Opinions] Linda
What do you think of Linda? I used to think it was really dated but now I think it's cute and might be ready for a comeback. What do you think? Cute or dated? Linda or Lynda? I kind of like Lynda better because I have bad associations with Linda plus Lynda looks friendly and cute to me. Is it too trendy or does it look misspelled?Do you think it'll get common again? I think it is similar to names that are currently popular such as Lydia. Do you know any Lindas or Lyndas? Are most of them older? Do you know any kids named Linda or Lynda?

I've been really liking Linda lately. It's such a beautiful, soft, delicate name. I know it's dated but it doesn't sound so to me– I'm far enough removed that I find it very cute and fresh.I do, though, think Lynda looks misspelled.

Back in the day, the only Linda I knew was my Uncle's gf. She's in like her 40s now.But now I have 2 friends named Linda. One is 20 and the other is 21. They're both Hispanic. I dunno if that has anything to do with anything...

I am not a fan of Linda. I hope it does not comeback but I would love to see a little Linda because it would be so refreshing. I prefer the spelling Linda because Lynda seems trendy and misspelled.

I know a lot of Lindas. I had two in my class alone in primary school. I don't know any Linda under the age of 12. I see it as dated, and I hope it won't make a comeback. Lynda looks trendy and misspelled to me, but it does look less dated. I usually use Linda as an example of a bland name. The only way I would think Linda would be okay is as a nn for Rosalinda or something like that.
