Re: Rhiannon vs. Rhianna
The only thing that I hate about either name is how popular it is on this board! I love both names a lot and I thought it was a very rare name, then I got on here and it was popping up all over the place. I still intend to use it one day (I'm just not sure which one either) and I am comforted that around here where I live I doubt that many people have heard this name before; I've certainly never met anyone with either name in my life nor have I seen it listed in any of my school yearbooks. I think I am leaning more towards Rhianna (pro. ree-ahn-ah), I think it sounds better coming out of my mouth than Rhiannon. But either name is beautiful to me. ~Arie~

We considered it for our last daughter, but it sounded a bit cumbersome with our surname. I only know one Rhiannon, one Rhiana. I don't think it's popular at all. I search through GrowingFamily.com pretty thoroughly, and I might find one Rhiannon a month out of hundreds of hospitals.Leslie, lucky mommy to Scott (2000), Delaney (2002), and Larissa (2005)

I'll have to go to that site. I'm glade its not that popular then. I don't usually like overused names and this one is on my list of "will use someday." I hope it is still uncommon when I have kids someday. I like unique names; without being weird or completely blagh. ~Arie~
