[Opinions] Re: Holly
in reply to a message by Lily
I like Holly. I think it is a bit dated in the US (70's/80's) but definitely not unusable. I don't think it is too common. I think I've only known 2 -both about 30.
I think Holly can be used anytime of year. I personally would only use a season name in that season (except May/Mae and maybe August) but my sister thinks it is silly to do that. (I asked if her friend April was born in April and she thought that would be stupid). And I know 2 Summer's - one has a June birthday and the other has a February birthday. The one with the June birthday, I think would have been Summer no matter when she was born though.
