[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]One of the names husband and I like for our second baby (a girl) is in the top 5 names nationally and locally. But does that really matter? It is one of the few names we both like and it goes well with our other kid's name and our last name and the family middle name we'd like to use. Uniqueness seems to be more of an issue for girl names -- like there are 2 James in our preschool class and 2 Will's when we were in daycare and no one seemed to care at all. How much does this really matter?[/quote] What do you mean? Who would deliberately give their kid and unpopular name? Popular names are good — and popular for a reason. It’s like people think their snowflake has to have some obscure name to be unique or something. And don’t get me started on the “jennifer” phenomenon. Today’s most popular names don’t even come close to the saturation of jennifer in the 1970s.[/quote]
