I am pretty sure the name is not rare enough to be ruined by these things.
If you count all 3 popular spellings, it's about as frequently used as Lily and Grace right now. Which isn't all that frequent - fewer than 1 in 200 babies/year. I think it might be rare enough for people over 25, though, that it would seem rather unusual as a name for an adult today.
