[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Husband likes a baby name that was on the top 5 list last year and I’m hung up on it. I like the name, but hung up on it being super popular and baby being one of many in their class. FWIW I have a very unusual name that has benefited me so perhaps that is where my feelings stem from! Anyone else avoid popular baby names or use them regardless?[/quote] How does having an unusual name “benefit” you? That’s so weird. I don’t understand this desire for scarcity when naming a child. It’s not like a name bestows uniqueness on the child. This mentality is just so bizarre. Who cares if another child in class has the name? And this isn’t the 1970s. The most popular names don’t even begin to approach the saturation levels of popular names from that era. [/quote] Unusual sometimes equals memorable which means teachers remember your name, interviewers remember your name, etc. [/quote]
