Nothing inherently wrong with the name, but yes....it's too common, and being so common has made it boring!
How many have I known?
Sarah M--worked at the bookstore\cafe with her
Sara A--also worked at the bookstore\cafe with her, became a good friend
Sarah R--also worked at the bookstore\cafe with her, became a good friend
Sarah G--also worked at the bookstore\cafe with her, didn't become such a good friend
Sarah D--was a friend of my daughter's, my daughter got tired of her immaturity
Another Sarah R---the daughter of friends, just turned nineteen--very good violinist, is now on a music scholarship
Sarah I-can't-remember-her-last-name---friend of my daughter's in high school
Another Sarah D---worked with her at the bookstore\cafe, became a good friend of both mine and my daughter's, disappeared for a while, came back into our lives, but then moved to the neighboring state--but we don't see her much nowadays
That's eight. The youngest is nineteen. Maybe it's not as popular as it once was, but there are way too many for it to be refreshing on a little girl. It needs a rest of about a hundred years.
Sarah and Joshua are the two names that I have heard so frequently that I feel if I hear them one more time, I'll scream.
