[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why is it so important to be out of the top 500? The #500 names are at about 0.03% of all births-- i.e. 1 in 3000 girls or boys (so 1 in 6000 kids.) Even the #200 names only come up in about 1 in 2000 girl or boy births (so 1 in 4000 kids.) Do you really need to be rarer than that?[/quote] Why does a name need to be rare or uncommon at all? This is how helicoptering begins, by obsessing to find a "unique" name, as if that bestows some kind of special on the child. It doesn't. [/quote] That's what everyone does now, all the names are unique. My kid's classmates: - Boys: Cole, Emil, Hugh, Jackson, Arjun, Felix, Gray, Landen, Clay, Nevin - Girls: Addison, Calais, Mara, Lilah, Isabella, Annabelle, Andrea, Hannah, Cailin (the girls names are much more traditionally popular than the boys)[/quote]
