[quote=Anonymous]It's personal preference. For us - I really didn't want a common name. My name was a top 10 when I was growing up, and back then, top 10 names were more dominant than they are now, so there were almost always multiple people with my name in each class. I hated it, and swore I'd give my kid's something less common. Well, flash forwards and my husband and I really struggled to find name we both liked. Our tastes are just so different. I did remove any top 10 names from our short list, but we both liked Sebastian (#18) and I decided I could live with how common it's become. I do kinda cringe when I hear another Sebastian (we've already run into two others and he's not even two yet), but I love the name and so I've made my peace. And it's still waaaaay less common than my name was growing up. And my daughter's name is super super rare (not even in the top 1000) so that's nice :-)[/quote]
