    Good! Me and Jaime want to name our daughter Samantha, maybe by the time we have a baby it won't be as "common", if it is, we'll have to go with either Tahlia or Nevaeh. lol, I'm not a fan of common names, I like things to be original

    I'm hoping that the names I've gotten picked out for my future children NEVER make the top 10
    Mine don't even make the top 100 Dorian is my oldest son and I think that my youngest is on the top 100 but like number 85-90 His name is Lucas

    All of the names listed are all too familiar. I think we know at least 1 of each one listed. My daughters know multiple Briannas, Kaitlyns and Ashleys.

    When my 2nd daughter was born (November of 99), I didn't think of looking to see about popular names and all that .. in December of 99' they named the most popular girls name and she had it .. lol .. Emily .. and I see it is still on the list 3 years later .. looks like there will be a of Emily's in her class when she gets to school.
    They say it takes a minute to find a special person, an hour to appreciate them, a day to love them, but then an entire life to forget them. Distance and time may separate us but friendship and memories won't.

    when I went to school

    I graduated with over 400 plus people and not
    only was I the only Samantha, I never even met another Samantha
    until the 80's when people started naming their children
    Samantha. My daughter's name is Diana and when we meet people
    for the first time- they often call me Diana and her Samantha.
    My child is the only Diana in her school. She will graduate with
    400 plus people in her class. I guess when she is my age
    people will start naming their kids Diana.

    My son's name isn't on there. It's Hayden. If we have another boy, hubby wants to name him Dylan Thomas. A girl would be Emily Elizabeth. I want Emma- not Emily.

    my sone is Bradyn with a "y" but not in the place everyone tries to put it. Usually braydon is how people spell it. But with the way we spell it, we call him Brady.

    Lord, Help me remember that being a Mommy is the most important thing I will do today.
