    My first 2 are nowhere on there. Our new baby will be in the top 15 but we are giving her an unusual middle name so hopefully that helps. One more thing, I don't think it is fair that weird spellings of popular names should be considered "least common" Jaycob?

    Edit: typo

    wow.  DS's middle name is on there but not his first, which is shocking because it's a pretty common name.  am i just not seeing it?  his first name is robert.

    i don't see any of our front runners for this baby on there, boy or girl.

    also, i dislike alternate spellings making a name "less common"...camryn might not be a common spelling but i know at least 6 camerons (in different spellings, including a camryn).

    DD is #49, she's a Claire. No idea what we will call DS but there are some good options on here :)

    My daughter's name isn't in the top 1000 because it is the less common (though legitimate) spelling. However, the common spelling of her name was number 106 in 2013 and her nick name was 83. (Elinor/Eleanor/Nora)

    Baby girl's name was 645 last year. (Matilda)

    If this baby had been a boy, the name we would have used was 821 last year. (Duncan)

    Nope, neither my dd nor this baby's names are on either lists. My dd is Anja and dd2 will be Caroline.

    We have 2 boy names we're choosing from, both are there.
    We have 10 stinkin' girl names we can't seem to narrow down. 4/8 are there.
    We tend to like popular names, though, so it's no surprise.

    My girl name is too 50. Doesn't bother me though.

    This baby's name is in the top 50. I'm okay with that though. I wanted to give her a name that people know, that has an established spelling. It's a solid name.

    DD, Caroline, isn't on there. Neither is the potential name for this one if it's a girl (Lucy). I doubt our boy name will ever be in the top 50 (Rory).

    My favorite girl's name is not on either of those lists, and my 1 of my 3 favorite boy's names is in the top 50 but the other 2/3 are not on there either.

    Only one of my kids' names is on there. I have a Chloe, which was #14 but I'm sure it's higher by the time you add in the ridiculous spellings. I was a bit surprised that her mn (Victoria) was in the top 50. I don't hear it often as a fn for little girls. I wanted it to be her fn but DH wouldn't go for it.

    My top contender for girl name is on neither list.

    DS's name is in the top 10. I love his name so it doesn't bother me at all

    @ladyamanuet It was me! It's the Name Nerds site

    https://namenerds.com/uucn/

    I spent no less than 2 hours on that site when you suggested it the first time. I didn't bookmark the page and was sad when I didn't remember it. I know what I'll be doing before I fall asleep... :)

    My DD's name wasn't on either list. The name we have picked for a girl is in the top 40's but the boy name we have picked out wasn't in either list.

    One of my girl names was on the bottom 50 boy list, but otherwise none here!

    I agree these name lists are like crack! We've had our boy name picked out for a long time, but it's still fun to look. Girl name is still very much up in the air.
