Help[Opinions] Re: Magnolia
in reply to a message by Lapin
Any idea what things in popular culture might have inspired its recent popularity?
It seems very deliberately Southern, to me.
I think it's a nice name and I like nn Maggie. But I'm turned off by the emphasized NO in it. For some reason I'm sensitive to that in names.
I like your combos: Magnolia Renee and Eve Magnolia.

The drummer for No Doubt named his daughter Magnolia in 2011. That put it on the map for people maybe? But Magnus looks like it appeared in the top 1000 the same year...there was a lovable elderly character named Mags in Hunger Games 2, and apparently that came out the year both names appear in the top 1000...
Stylistically, it also seems the intersection between popular names like Savannah, Scarlett, Jackson and trending names like Rowan, Willow, Hazel, Juniper, Dahlia.

It was already popular in the SSA charts from 1800s up until the 1940s. It came back around 2013 and shot way up to the 300's. There's a U.S. TV house makeover show, Fixer-Upper that ended a year or two ago, with a family from Texas who own a company called Magnolia farms and redecorates people's houses. It was a huge hit, and I think it may be one of the reasons why Magnolia became popular. Im not exactly sure, though.
