HelpRe: How popular is too popular?
in reply to a message by Rosalia_Paw
I definitely think it's subjective dependent on where you are in a country. You can look at national trends all you like (and I do) but if there's a pocket of Alexandra's in your area, it's no good moaning "she's one of three at nursery, how can this be, it's not even in the top 100!" I'm sorry but you should've done your local research.
What you've experienced throughout school and life is exactly what I'm looking to avoid for any future children I have. I had the lovely experience of my name being really uncommon growing up (although it's exploded in the last five or so years) and I had so many compliments on it. I want that for my children, I want them to stand out and have an individual identity; not be "Sarah. G / Blonde Sarah / Little Sarah etc etc"
