[Opinions] Re: Connor
in reply to a message by A
It is not unique but I've always liked it since I first came across it. There is the cutest artist town 30 to 45 minutes away from the city I grew up in, the town is called La Conner. Especially when I was young we would go there in the Spring for the tulip festival. At some point when I was in elementary school I met a boy named Connor and I realized that I liked his name since it made me think of the town.
I went through a phase of disliking any name that wasn't super uncommon in high school and the first year or two of college, other than that phase Connor's always been in my favorite boy's names list.
It has never been such a popular name in the US that you would have 2 or 3 in a class except in rare cases but it was a fairly popular name especially at its height in 2004. I'd like to avoid using names that are .5% or more of boys or girls named that year since that is around the cut off for when you have a much greater likelihood of having multiples in a class, at least based on what I've experienced. Connor got up to .47% in 2004 but never past that, so I'd definitely be open to using it someday unless it gets really popular.
