Women with these names have the greatest chance of being proposed to this year

Two generations ago, you would enter marriage with a collected set of dishes and an embroidered linen package from your parental home, nowadays getting married is more fun than a must. That's why we also do it more often later. Living together and having children seem to have more priority, and then marriage is a nice layer over that velvet cake of your life.

According to the Central Bureau of Statistics, the average age at which women say ‘yes’ (or ‘yesss’, because most think the proposal and marriage could have happened a bit earlier) in the Netherlands is 35.9.

Let's do a simple calculation, then the age at which they received the proposal is on average 34 years. Of course, you are busy with le preparazione, I should say. And if you then look at which names were most given to babies 34 years ago, the list is quickly made.

So if your name is on this list, then you can start pondering and thinking about a nice date in 2024 as far as I'm concerned. I'll write a little piece about that tomorrow.
