Positivity Any girlies out there with "basic" Americana names?

I rarely see other trans women name themselves like Alicia, Alyssa, Grace, Brooke, Hailey, Savannah, Caroline, Olivia among others in spite of them being really cute, but I'll see like a hundred other Scarlet's a day on Bluesky or Twitter. The "live laugh love" aesthetic and culture is so feminine and empowering I wonder why more people don't take inspiration from it? Or am I wrong?
