LOL 3 out of 5 of my boys are there

[Pietta]

I'd be interested to know how far down Riley/Ryley/Rilee/Rylee is on each of those lists.

Thanks for that Kathryn!

[Mumma2three]

Glad to see my names dont' make it!!! Im suprised at some of them, I thought there'd be more unusual names. xoxo

[wardygirl]

I'm glad Blake's not there. I've heard a few around and was worried it was going to hit the list.

I like having names that aren't so popular, and I can't stand kids being known at school as "Blake M"... Grrr

[Ambah]

PMSL oh well, Aidyns name is at the number one spot... though at least his is spelt differently!

[kerry]

Thanks for posting this... not that I care if my names were there or not as I have chosen them for their meaning and symbolism and wierdo stuff like that but NONE of my names are there, not even my emergency reserve, I've changed my bloody mind names, my australia day names (just incase) or my I really want this name but P hates it so its off the list names.... he he he.

[nickers]

Thanks for the list, my number 1 boy/girls are not on there but no: 2 names for both are in top 100.

[Pietta]

Oh thanks Kathryn- i thought some sort of Riley would be in the top 100!

[Rouge]

YAY @ Paris & Seth not being in top 100 LOL!

Not that it really matters but ykwim

*hugs*
Cailin

[wardygirl]

Thanks Kathryn for posting the whole list... I can cope with Blake being at number 80!

[mum5boyz]

LOL! All of my boys are in the top 100!

[Fee]

Wow Cooper is at 79 - I thought it might be higher than that. I'm glad though!

And the girl's name we are considering isn't even on the list.

[Jac]

Thankyou for posting this list - food for thought.

[delta_blue]

Both of the names we have chosen are on the list. The girls is on the top 10 and the boys name is towards the bottom. It is a handy list though, I cut and paste it and cut the list down to about 10 names in each list, just in case.

[Lee-Ann]

Well one of my daughters is in the top 10 Caitlyn, I was pretty bummed when I picked her name and found that a LOT of people were naming their daughters Caitlyn back when she was born, but oh well it's a pretty name that I absolutely love it and can see why it is a popular name. My other daughters aren't even in the top 100 which I'm really pleased about, I'm not keen on popular names and I especially made an effort to see what were the most common names around when I was pregnant with Regan. One name I liked & still do like was Olivia and it's in the top 10.

[Lee-Ann]

Oh really Kate? Wow, my partner and I fell in love with it when some one said "how about Regan?" as we were fishing around for names, we just couldn't decide on names for our list. It is a pretty name, just hope is stays in the not so common list!
