[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I like the name for the same reasons you do! Easy to spell, easy to say, not too popular. I wouldn't worry about the similar names being an issue.

My son has a name that is easy to say and spell as well but isnt one that was super common, I want to say it might have been 200 when he was born. In his class this year there is another one! For the first time ever! We've never met another on a sports team or even that I know of in other classes until now. He is 10. It bothers 
me more than I expected it to, I think he and this boy 
are the only duplicates and while it's not a rare name, I 
was really happy until now that it was his and no one elses in our circle! So you just can't tell what youe surroundings will give you.[/quote]

If you live in the dc metro area where parents perseverate over unique names, you are more likely to have duplicates of less popular names than to run into another kid with a top 10 or top 20 name.

Signed,

Mom of kids with classic top 10/20 names [/quote]
