Thanks for the responses! I didn't think Easton was but Carter is #55 in Popularity or something like that (based off a website I saw earlier) and these are our top 2 boy names so I figured I check! Very few of my friends have kids and they are all girls and I am never around kids otherwise.
We're naming our son Easton, and my only concern was that it moved up over 100 spots on the SSA list from 2009 to 2010. It is definitely gaining in popularity.

I think it just depends on where you are. I've heard of a lot of boys with these names in the last yr or 2 on facebook or boards like these but I only know of one Easton and no Carters myself. I love both of them, they're both on my list although Carter got vetoed.
I think that Carter is becoming a popular name. We are using it if we have a boy. I don't know of anyone with a child named Easton but I like it because its different.
Re: Would you consider either of these two boys names popular?
I wouldn't say that they're popular, but not unique either.
I like them both.
Baby Boy born sleeping at 20 weeks.
I think Carter is. In my circle of friends there are 5 baby Carters.
That being said, I really like the name Carter and would use it regardless of popularity. Easton is nice too.
