I just don't see how you could name your daughter Karen anymore.

It’s the go to soccer mom housewife meme name. I actually think Talladega Nights started it with the cougar named Karen.

It’s crazy that LeBron and Shaquille are “cool” names yet Karen is worthy of derision

No one really knows, but this is probably the most accurate answer you'll get.

As long as there has been bad potato salad, the name Karen has been stigmatized.

A mildly amusing meme that facebook annihilated in 0.4 seconds. The story of 2019.

It's not yet a name reserved for things like that.


For example of what I mean, you never hear it anymore..but it would be unshocking and totally acceptable to find out this was named "Adolph".

Goodfellas started it and now 30 years later we've reached peak Karen.

Karen taking Liotta's kids and flushing the coke along with Liotta's reaction is what catapulted the name to infamy.

It's what we call a slow burn; only really starting to take off 3 years ago.

The Epstein meme has temporarily supplanted it though.
