Help[Opinions] Re: What names have american association to you?
in reply to a message by InvisibleDreamer
I don't view last names as first names as American, because the British loved to use surnames too. Maybe it's just an "English" thing. But names that obviously refer to American popular figures, like Lincoln, Reagan, Kennedy, Jefferson, then yeah those are very American.
Gun related names are pretty American to me, like Kimber, Colt, Remington. Car and motorcycle related names (Axel, Hemi, Harley). Luxury brand names (Chanel, Dior, Lexus). Place names and Indigenous word names, like Dallas, Aspen, Winona, Laramie, Cheyenne, Dakota.
Although, we use all these names in Canada too, so maybe I should say they are North American rather than USAian.
