I know it's been discussed over 1000 times here, but what happened to classic names?

I'm getting to that age where a lot of people I graduated high school with are starting to get pregnant (majority without being married) and I swear to God I have not seen a normal name yet.
"Oakleigh" was just announced to my facebook TL, and the parents look exactly what you think they look like.
Lets just say that this baby is going to be playing travel softball and dad is going to yell at ALL of the umpires.
I swear to God, if I ever have kids, they are getting a name that actually exists. Not one that I pulled out of my arse. What happened to classic names and classic spellings?
Here is my theory: Trashy people try to make themselves look bourgeoisie by hiding their lack of wealth behind a fancy spelled name. Please tell me theories.
Sorry if I offend any parents of kids with the following names:
-Bentley
-Braxxton
-Myleigh
-Taylee
-Baleigh
-Jaxx

Thank the internet, social media and travel ball parents for that stupid shite.

My first name comes from 800s England. I'm a true cracker.

It's up to you to be the change you want to see.

My first name is from the Bible
My father’s name is my middle name, also from the Bible
Braxtyn 3:16 “He who is without error, may be in the starting lineup”

You're friends with them so I'm guessing you're trashy too.

Drogon and Rhaegal?
Posted on 2/7/20 at 11:29 am to whitetiger1234
So what’s your name?
Posted on 2/7/20 at 11:30 am to whitetiger1234
It's slowly swinging back the other way, I've seen Lillian, Evelyn, Eleanor, Eloise, Claire and Harper recently in my family/friend circle.
Now it seems to be either older names or crazy dumb white trash "unique" spellings...what you don't see are the 90s/early 2000s Emily, Rachel, Jennifers, Elizabeth, or Katie's anymore
