2020 had the fewest number of babies named ‘Karen’ since 1932

Jun 3 2021 Share

Due to an influx of memes and amusing coincidental circumstance, the name “Karen” has evolved into what media platform Vox have called the average “basic white person name” often related to mothers who sport a particular haircut and often want to speak to the manager.

Due to such a cultural evolution, the name’s popularity has diminished over the years, with America’s Social Security Administration reporting that only 325 newborn babies were named Karen, representing only 0.019% of all female births in 2020.

This was the least amount of infants named Karen since 1932 – do you think the name will die out?

In a Facebook post, local musician Kersten Graham stated that “you know when Malta is behind other countries when you see discussions and comments discussing whether or not Police should have tattoos” going on to state that tattoos are are and nothing less.

Many have argued that such a conservative mentality has no place in today’s modern climate and that permission for tattoos and facial hair should not even be a consideration.
