My grandma agrees with you, she practically barfs whenever she hears the name.
I guess it's just another old-fashioned name whose time has come again. It's got royalty (dead and otherwise) behind it. Also it's super-feminine but has a tomboy loophole, so people feel like they have options.

I think it's the feminine-name-with-a-boys-nickname that makes it so appealing to modern parents. The ones that feel drawn to the boys-names-on-girls trend, but are too traditional to actually take that step.
