You can nickname yourself Charlie and it won't be old. Charles isn't too uncommon though, I personally wouldn't think it's out of the ordinary.

Hey look at the bright side; there are a lot of Mexicans named Carlos but there aren't a lot of Mexicans named Charles. You are unique in that sense. And like I said, make a nickname for yourself if you really don't want Charles.

Most of the names in this thread aren't "old", just a few awkward ones.

I'd rather give my daughter a classical name like Elizabeth or Mary than a stupid trendy name like Jenna or Amber or some made up concoction. Blechhh.
