Subject: Some rather dated 70s/80s names, wdyt? usable?

I have a thing for dated 70s/80s names. I wish they'd come back soon but I guess we'll have to wait 80 years or so for that.

Here are my favorites, wdyt? Do any of them sound fresh to you? Which is the most/least dated? Could you rank them (10 -very dated, 1-not dated)?

Were they very common where you lived? Did you have two or more kids with these names in one of your classes?

Danielle
Ashley
Kristina
Amy
Heather
Julie
Carolyn
Caitlin
Candice
Tiffany
Brittany - if I can get anyone to use the three syllable pr. I dislike BRIT-nee.

Candice or Candace?
Christina or Kristina?

My favorite names are nature names, so I'd most likely use them as middle names, paired with a nature name. But if I have more than two daughters I might also use them as first names:

Meadow Danielle
Meadow Ashley
Meadow Caitlin
Meadow Carolyn
