[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was born in 1970. My name was the most popular name from, I think, 1970 - 1984. There were at least 2 of us in each class. I hated it. But "top 5" is different from that situation, if the name is #5 or even #3 or #4 (if that makes sense). [/quote] Hi Jennifer! OP- I tried giving my daughter a unique but classic name. She was born abroad and I knew no one with this name. I didn't think to check "most popular names" or anything like that. The name I gave her can work in pretty much any country with a Christian population. I moved home and there are tons of girls with this name with a slightly different spelling. So for my second I named her something I just loved. It was maybe #2 at the time. Neither girl has had a repeat of their name in class or in school. It's a small private school and a good chunk of the class has ethnic names from different countries, so that helps. So for my genX these are equivalent names to Sarah, Jennifer, Heather, Anna, Lauren, etc.[/quote]
