Hannah
I'm really starting to like the name Hannah. I'm a bit worried about it's popularity, though. The good thing is that it lost almost 10 places compared to 2007. What do you think? Will it continue to fall? Where do you live and how many Hannahs do you know?

I really like Hannah. Probably not enough to ever use it but it is pretty. I live in Australia and I have only known one Hannah who was my age, one Hannah who was a friend of my brother's (he is now 17) and one of my teachers in high school named her daughter Hannah back in about 2004/2005.

I think Hannah is a good name. I usually don't like overly popular names, but Hannah is an exception. It does seem like it's continuing to fall in popularity. When I lived in the US (New Hampshire) I knew one Hannah. She is five now. Now I live in Sweden and I don't know any Hannahs.

I know quite a few of all ages. I can see the appeal, but its a bit too plain for tastes. I like it as a nn for Johanna.

I greatly dislike this name. I think it will continue to fall. I live in South Carolina and I've never known a Hannah, and don't know anyone who named their baby Hannah.

I think Hannah will continue to fall but it could become dated. I know about 8 Hannah's and I live in England :)

I think it will continue to fall. Hannah has had it's run. It's been up there since like 1995. I don't personally know any Hannahs (other than myself), but I know of at least six, and I hear the name in the mall a lot, always in regards to girls under 13. But it's a lovely name, and if it weren't for the current popularity I'd be very happy that it's mine.

I think it will continue to fall. I know several Hannah's, but I still think it's a good name. I like Hannah.

I live in Connecticut, though in a very Jewish populated area, I've known about five Hannahs give or take, one Hanna, and a couple Channahs. Five of the Hannahs/Channahs I know are Jewish and I don't think it's going to drop in popularity among that culture, it's almost like Catholics dropping the names Michael or Joseph.
