[Opinions] Re: Lauren vs. Hannah
in reply to a message by Starfish and Coffee
I would pick Hannah.
I'm a bit bored by both of them and they feel very 90s at the moment.
But I understand how people can still be in love with 90s names. I like them too, but I like a different set: Caitlin and Megan.
Lauren is not as nice to me because there are so many similar names that were also so so popular. Laurie and Lori in the 60s and 70s, Laura in the 70s and 80s and then Lauren in the 90s and 00s.
Hannah is also super popular but it feels more like its own name (even though it is somewhat similar to Anna, the strong H makes all the difference).
I can also imagine a Lauren to not be particularly nice (not that there aren't nice ones), but Hannahs to me are always nice and friendly and down to earth and the ultimate girl-next-door type (there are probably exceptions too but I haven't met them yet).
Hannah Isabelle

Yeah, Laurens do tend to be a bit darker than friendly Hannahs. But Lauras are the weirdest. I can't think of any Laura who doesn't make me feel a bit worried about whether she's going to be able to cope with society. However, Laura is my preferred name out of these three.
