Everyone will know an annoying Ryder
So true! LOL there was a Ryder at DS's kindy. If there was trouble, without a doubt he was the instigator. I think I'm a bit unique in that I can separate the name from the person in most cases. I usually like names because of the way they sound, not because they are "normal" "different" "old-fashioned" "trendy" or whatever other attribute that they have. I like the "Rye" sound so I like pretty much any name that starts with that. Ryan, Riley etc. We found it really hard to choose names because there were many that I liked that DH thought were too weird (because he didn't know anyone with that name growing up) or because he did know someone with that name growing up and couldn't separate the name from the person . He drove me nuts. He thought Cooper was too weird because it wasn't common for people our age or older. It's now in the top 10! Didn't matter Anyway, my point is, I quite like the name Ryder because I think it sounds nice and matches well with W i l l o w.

Would you like me to make some more suggestions redgum? I have a massive list of names I like & would be happy to share ones I think you might like.

PS: I asked DH if he liked Coco (knowing full well he wouldn't lol) and his comment was "what about Icing Sugar - it's sweeter". Don't listen to him. Clearly he has no taste
