Re: Popularity
in reply to a message by Lilac Wine
My name was in the top 15 the decade I was born and the top 10 the decade after, and I never liked how common it was. I wasn't a big fan of being "Megan C" or "Megan-that-plays-saxophone" or whatever.
So I would be inclined to avoid popular names. Preferably nothing in the top 100, though if something was hovering around the bottom and didn't seem likely to jump I'd use it if I really loved it. But there's so many names I love and wouldn't mind using on kids that I'd prefer to use the less common ones over the more popular ones.
