I'm glad we have them, because it does give a variety of names. It would be pretty boring if the world was nothing but a bunch of Alexander's, William's, Mary's, and Natalie's. Plus, I'm kind of glad that my favorite names stand out from others. My friends all want to name their kids Mackenzie, Brayden, Aiden, and Kaden. I on the other hand like Rhys, Eleanor, and Owen.

Also, this isn't just an US thing, many countries have these trends. Just look at some of the popularity charts :)
