What's in a name?

I went to school with a girl named Kennie. She had electric blond cork-screw curled hair and was completely insane and tons of fun. She was definately a kennie.
The one name that doesn't get me is Trudie, my mother's and great aunt's name. I can see a woman named Trudie, but I couldn't imagine a little girl named Trudie, just seems too grown up.

Yeah, but Trudie comes from Gertrude, which is HORRIBLE..
