Name sightings

Today at the store, while some grocery shopping, I overheard these two names being called:

Gregory & Warren (Separate; from different families)

They were both boys, so the names were surprising to hear, especially Warren. You hardly ever come across that name among the younger population. I know I never have until today. 0_o
Warren appeared approximately around 10-11 (around that range) and Gregory younger around 6-7, maybe younger. He had an adult sister with him, named Ava.

Thoughts?

Here are mine: Adore Ava (Simple and cute. Just decent overall. Used it for a character of mine but wouldn't use it in real life (Nothing to do with it's popularity though). Warren I really like as well. Always have for some reason. It's still hard to imagine someone young going by this, in this day and age. Gregory is...not much to say I guess. Probably my least favorite from this brief list. It's ok, although I very much dislike Greg/Gregg (Slightly better than Craig, but still)

While there is nothing wrong with Warren particularly, I cannot warm to it. Quite like Gregory, tho, have a nephew, Gregg, and I actually prefer Gregory. Ava is perfectly lovely.

Warren is too rabbitty. I dated a very pleasant Gregory for a while, so it retains good vibes though I prefer Gregor and would use it. Ava is a 1950s or earlier Hollywood name: lots of long hair, pointy bra, all dressed up and nowhere to go.

I knew several boys my age growing up named Gregory and at least one or two named Warren. Granted I'm in my late 20s now but still.

I actually rather like both names.
