[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]you're putting words in my mouth.  and I was in no way judging those names other than to say they are way up there in popularity and probably bound to run across another.  If that doesn't bother someone, that's fine.  I only laugh when someone gets so upset "I didn't know how popular it was!"  Jeez, give me a break - the internet is right there if this is going to be an issue.

You chose a name you love, I'll do the same.  Deal?[/quote]

But sometimes people really do not know how popular a name is, specifically because there are micro trends in an area. So it's actually not that unusual for especially a FTP to say "I didn't know how popular it was" because unlike someone with a 3 yr old, they may not have realized how popular a name is in a certain area. I know numerous people this has happened to. And yes, I know that you can look up names by state, but you can't do it by neighborhood or city, and someone who is pregnant for the first time might not know about event the state lists. So to laugh at someone in that situation is actually really rude.

It honestly sounds like you are super judgmental of people who didn't choose a super unique name and feel superior specifically because you did. Which is incredibly lame.[/quote]
