[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think a lot of parents try to find a sweet spot with names - a name people recognize, can easily say and spell but isn't everywhere. The kind of name where people say, "Yeah. That's a nice name, I haven't heard that in a while." The name then becoming popular was not part of their plan.[/quote] LOL My best friend in college was one of the many Jennifers. Her mom was very much not a follow-the-crowd person and named her Jennifer when nobody used it. It was the "Nice name, I haven't heard that in a while." A few months later "Love Story" came out and that spawned the infinite Gen X Jennifers.[/quote]
