First Impressions
AI-WrittenA Kassidy reads as quintessentially turn-of-the-millennium. The substitution of a K gives the traditional Irish surname a sharper, distinctly American cadence. With an average age around nineteen, the name belongs largely to dorm lounges and recent driver licenses. It never has to explain its pronunciation, though it will spend a lifetime clarifying its first letter.
