[Opinions] Re: American Names
Woah there, John and Mary are by far not American.To me an American name would be something that originated here, like the trendy junk going around (Kaylee, Jaden, etc.) or African-American names.Then I suppose there are some names or nicknames that are/were more commonly used here, though they didn't originate here. Hank comes to mind.

Susannah was quite popular in early America, like many biblical names. nt  ·  LuzDeTuVida  ·  7/29/2009, 2:37 PM

Yes. Americans use both Fall and Autumn. They're just synonyms to us. nt  ·  LuzDeTuVida  ·  7/29/2009, 1:06 PM
