We really want to find a unique name for our baby boy, who will be here in August. I love Hudson, but am worried that it is getting too trendy! Any thoughts or other unique names to share?
I like it, and I don't think that it will be overly trendy. If you and your H love the name then go for it. It doesn't have the trendy 'feel' to it either.
I like Hudson! I don't know anyone with the name and don't think it is getting too trendy. On my old name list, it didn't do so well, and I was surprised. It may be the family middle name we will be using that I had paired with it (Riley). I still like the name Hudson Riley, but am not sure I could get DH on board.

My friend just named her little girl Hudson Riley. Different and I love it.

I didn't know Hudson was being used as a girls' name now too. I, of course, knew about Riley, which is why we are using it as a middle name and not a first, but I haven't heard of any girls named Hudson. Interesting.
hudson may be popular on thenest/thebump, but i've never met anyone with the name hudson. perhaps hudson is starting to become popular, but i wouldn't know - i only know a couple of people with small children.
We named our son Hudson. He is 2 1/2 y.o. now and I had the name picked for several years before I even got pg, lol, and at the time I had never heard of anyone else even using the name. However, I have noticed it used quite a bit more often lately, not crazy trendy, but definitely more prevalent. I still LOVE it anyways though!
I have never seen a Hudson in real life, just on the nest. There is a town Hudson, WI where my inlaws live, so first I think of the city. But that could be said for names like Paris, etc.

I know one Hudson, and I think it's a great name. It's too popular for my tastes, but I would use it if you like it.
Other suggestions: Hamilton, Cleveland, Hayes, Norton, Holland, Harris, Hilton, Harlan, Upton, Berkeley, Langdon, Lyman, Walden, Sutton, Denton.

What about Hayes??
