I have been thinking about this thread for far too long now

I think the names that I consider old-fashioned are the names of my parent's friends and neighbours. When I was young (10 years old), their friends and neighbours were all in their 30's and 40's (really old!!). Their names were Iris, Sheila, Mavis, Betty, Megan, Freda, Eric, Charlie, Fred, Dick. These are the people that were around me all the time and these names seem really old-fashioned to me, more-so than my family names.
