I just noticed that they posted the 2010 names. https://www.ssa.gov/cgi-bin/popularnames.cgi

hmmm well that sucks. Leah is one of my favorite girl names and its now on the list....

I'm cringing seeing that Naveah is even on that list.

Yeah, I used to think that I didn't want to use a name that was in the top 25 or 50, but now that we're seriously talking about names, I just don't think I care anymore. Olivia is one of our favorite names, and it's #4, but I don't think I even care. I don't know any Olivias, and that's sort of enough for me. Ditto with the other names we like, though I don't see those on the top 25 list.

I know! What is wrong with people!

Jayden? Seriously?

I think that is an awful name... Sorry if I'm offending anyone.

The new name picked and love is on there. Oh well. If it sticks when she's born, it's supposed to be her name. I think she'll be fine.

I went back to 2006-2010 with DS#1, and his name is no where on there. DS#2 is a constant however. : )

Jayden, too.

I'm a proud mom of a little boy with the #5 name (William). One of our top choices for #2 is Samuel, which is also on the list. Oh well, I love the names and they're classic, so that's all that matters to me!

Our name, Cody, hasn't been in the top 50 in the past 10 years and was 158 in 2010. Works for me.

And I can't stand the name Neveah.

I like Olivia and was considering it if we have a girl. I only know one Olivia but I don't know many small children so theres still a chance she may have to go through class as Olivia K.
