Re: names that popularities that surprised you
recent increase in Josephine being used the last few years...Jadon on a girlKayden and its varied spellings... and suddenly seemed to pop up out of nowhwereEthan, Liam and Aidan... also were next to nil and almost unheard of and suddenly popped up out of nowhere... I guess other people like them, but I don't so much.Noah: not a bad name (though I still think it's weird on a girl), but always thought of it more as a historical name growing up and never knew anyone by that name until some friends of mine had a son named Noah and then suddenly it became popular.Wyatt: just doesn't seem like a name one expects to become popular...Payton: sounds more like a surname than a feminine given name
Neveah... *just shakes head*Jackson, Connor, Parker and various other surnames... makes it hard to tell which is the person's surname and which is a given name... esp. if they wind up being Jackson Parker or something... I think most of them work better as surnames than given names anyway.Trinity... not what I think of as a nameboys named Tristan... What's with that? Even if it didn't mean sad, it still sounds girly.

NoahI can't say for sure, but after I saw The Ring, I looked up the four main characters names (Rachel, Noah, Aiden, and Samara). Every thing had gone up, except Rachel, which dropped a lot. Also, The Notebook?
