Woman Reveals Names Gen Z Thinks Are 'Old-Lady Names'
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. Picking a baby name is a big decision. So some parents may be dismayed to find out that Gen Z has its own baby-name list—ones they think sound like "old lady names." In a TikTok, creator Kelley Cole explains which names made it onto the "old" list, and the results might surprise you. Why It Matters Baby-naming trends can often reflect broader cultural shifts and social values. The Social Security Administration (SSA) recently released its list of the most used baby names in the United States for 2024, with Olivia and Liam maintaining their reign as America's top choices for the sixth consecutive year. Newcomers on the list included Truce and Colsen for boys, and Ailany and Marjorie for girls. A doll in front of two notes with speech bubbles containing the names Marie and Elias. A doll in front of two notes with speech bubbles containing the names Marie and Elias. Frank Rumpenhorst/picture-alliance/dpa/AP Images What To Know "I was told my name was an old lady name by the teenagers on the adolescent unit I was working on a few months ago," Cole says in the video that has been viewed more than 350,000 times. "I was surprised." Cole goes on to explain that teens shared with her what names are "old lady names" versus "young names." The list of names that the teens said were "old lady names": Ashley, Amanda, Jessica, Stephanie, Jennifer, Christie, Tracy, Stacey, Amy, Crystal, Kelly, Lisa, Jordan, Michelle, Shelly, Laura, Laurie, Kathy, Tammy, Heather, Angela and Angie. The "young girl names" were Bella, Isabelle, Olivia, Olive, Ava, Eden, Abigail and Abbie, Ella, Gracie, Zoe and Rose. And it's not the first time that so-called "old lady" names have sparked a debate between generations on TikTok. In 2024, a creator named Amber posted a video on the topic that went viral, receiving 4.3 million views as of reporting. "The other day my daughter told me the name Ashley or Amanda, or my name is Amber, are like old-people names," she says in the video. "I never thought about it this way, but she's like yeah my teachers' names are like Miss Erica, Miss Samantha, there's Amandas and Ashleys—those are just old-people names." Amber went on to list some of the young names her daughter had highlighted, including Scarlet, Charlotte, Olivia, Penelope, Isabella, Bella and Ella. Though the two videos were posted more than a year apart, there is overlap in what the group of young people told Cole, and what Amber's daughter told her, were old- and young-people's names. What People Are Saying Kelley Cole, in her TikTok video, after listing the "young-girl names": "Who's gonna tell these girls that those were our grandmas' names. Those are the old-lady names, not Kelley." What Happens Next Cole's remarks about the "young names" being "grandma names" taps into a key naming trend. There is a theory around names called the 100-year rule, where names cycle in and out of a fashion and it takes a century for the cycle to complete. In practice, this means names that were common for the grandparents or great-grandparents of Gen Z could be about to come back. Unfortunately, the same can't be said for their parents' names, but they may well come back around for future generations.

Conan Gray Masters the Art of Yearning in 'This Song' Lyrics
The Conan Gray-shaped hole in your heart is about to be filled, because the singer-songwriter is officially back with the latest single off his upcoming album, 'This Song.' Along with heartfelt lyrics that openly yearn for romance, the track is married with whimsical string-heavy production reminiscent of the Goo Goo Dolls' 'Iris'... we can hear those TikTok mashups already. The song brings Conan back to his vulnerable bedroom pop songwriting roots, which is fitting since he wrote most of his fourth studio album, Wishbone, from that very place. Wishbone is set to be released on August 29, and Conan revealed that he had 'secretly' stumbled upon the writing process almost two years ago. 'Over the past two years, I've been secretly writing songs. After shows in the basements of the venues, in the sheets of my hotel beds, in narrow gaps between tours— I'd come back home and write all the things I felt nobody wanted to hear. Maybe even the things I didn't want people to hear,' Conan wrote on Instagram. 'It felt like the music was reminding me who I am, at an experimental time in my twenties where 'who I am' had no definition at all.' He continued, 'I played the songs to the very first person I'd ever made music with, Dan Nigro, and I quietly began to record. I didn't know why I was recording, I just was. I didn't know what story I was telling, I was just living in it. Slowly I started to see myself in full picture. The slivers of myself I'd always been, but never faced. The songs I'd always been writing, but never singing. Before I knew it I was surrounded by an album.' That being said! Now seems like a good time to learn the lyrics of 'This Song' as Conan is hitting a few music festivals later this year. Lyrics by Conan Gray [Verse 1] Yeah, I know that I love you And I have a feeling that you love me back I'm sat in my bedroom And I hear your heart like a train on the tracks Your eyes are like heaven Your voice is like rain Eleven elevens, they all hear your name Too shy to tell you the words on my mind I hope you can see if you read through these lines Get in, it's time to yearn (aka... a likely thing to do during a Conan song). In the first verse, he confesses his love for his subject with pure poetry. When he feels those emotions could potentially be reciprocated, he seemingly calls back to Train's 'Drops of Jupiter': 'She acts like summer / and walks like rain.' Conan shares that he wishes for this person every time the clock turns 11:11 — it's also a nod to another Wishbone track of the same name. [Chorus] That I wrote this song about you A song that I wish you knew A song that I tried to sing But now I'll say it straight I wrote this song about you In case the subject needed clarity on whether this song was about them... now they know. [Verse 2] I drive through the suburbs And you're playing all of your favorite songs You joke about your mother She can't help but cry when she hears Elton John You're singing obnoxious I'm laughing like spring Your brown racer jacket My hands through the sleeves The smell of your perfume Is all over me I can't wash it off so it's easy to see The second verse is truly what love is all about... it's the little things. Singing along to Elton John songs, wearing each other's clothes, and embracing the lingering scent of each other's fragrances. Also, there could be a cute lil Easter egg that potentially ties back to Conan's bestie, Olivia Rodrigo, here with 'You're singing obnoxious' and her 'Deja Vu' lyrics: 'Watching re-runs of Glee / Being annoying.' [Chorus] [Bridge] You know that I love you Is it dumb believing you might love me too? Yeah [Outro] (I wrote this song about you) (I wrote this song about you) You know that I love you
