[quote=Anonymous]My son's name is in the top 10 nationwide and top 5 for our state. He is 8 years old now and has never had another kid w/ his name in his class or even his grade at school, on any sports team or activity he's been in, none of his friends or peer group/neighborhood kids have the same name. My daughter's name is in the 600s for popularity for her birth year and we've met 3 other girls with that name through activities/classes! Anyway, all this to say that the really popular names now aren't nearly as popular as they were when we were kids (see PP about .7% of kids getting the most popular names now whereas that was more like 2% of kids back in the 80s getting the top names. It's just very, very unlikely your kid will be one of 3 in a class anymore no matter what their name is. We don't know ANY Liams or Noahs and those are the 2 most popular names for boys. We only know 2 Olivias and 1 Emma and those are the most popular girl names.[/quote]
