A viral meme reserved to make fun of overzealous white women has led to the downfall of one name.
The name Karen was only registered once in the United Kingdom in 2022, according to the popular site BabyCentre. It had four registrations in 2021 – meaning there was a 75 percent drop in popularity for the name.
For boys, the name Donald has fallen out of favor with only one registration in 2022 compared to six in 2021.
BabyCentre predicts that in 2023, the names will likely fall off the list altogether.
