I love my name is it tacky to name your daughter after yourself?
Breanna 20th . .my names not spelt the same but I like that ^^,
i think amy should be on there i no millions of amy’s but they are all spelt diffenly … like that matters
im suprusised my name is 2nd i only no a few emma’s.. also no affence but all my 35 years ive lived on this earthe ive neva herd of these names mia, ava, brianna, alyssa, there in the top 20!!!! (well ive herd of brianna but it was on the cinderella story….)
I don’t know if this name is popular but it is another way of spelling Zachary. I made it up!
I think it’s cute the way it’s spelled!
DO YOU LIKE IT?????
What about Bort
So I am wondering what part of this do 95% of you not understand??? The list has nothing to do with the general cuteness or how much an individual likes a name. The lists are a factual representation of the most commonly used names for babies born within the specified years. And as for Brittney… were all 100 of the Brittney’s that live in your neighborhood born around the years 2005-2006? Because those are the years these lists are representing. Are you older than 3 yourself? I am assuming that you are because you are posting on here. So think about it… maybe the name Brittney would have been on a list about 12 years ago when a lot of the girls that are named Brittney were actually being born.
My name isn’t up there :(
I kinda figured it wouldn’t because it isnt that common but still……….whatev
Wow. I’m loving how you’re all overreacting over this name thing. >_>;;
My name isn’et #26 it should be #1
you guys think your name is unpopular? my sister’s name is Carlyn (pronounced car-lin, for you dummies out there)after a little german (i think) girl my mom babysat when she was twelve. whenever we went on vacation and they had the name keychains we’d see Carly, Caroline, Carol, etc. we’d see everything but her name. at least some of you have names that are printed on keychains, so STOP WHINING!!
If you give your child a Unisex name, you set them up for a lifetime of issues. Whenever they send an email or a letter, people are going to question who they are – what they look like – what gender they should be looking for at the interview etc.
Do yourself and your child a favor and give your boys MASCULINE names. Jayden, Adrian, Hayden are metrosexual names that sound like women. Do your sons a favor.
Also, enough with the stupid spellings – trying to be cute. Brian is not spelled Bryan. Jamie is not spelled Jaime. James is not spelled Jaymes. Give your kids a break…man.
I’m a teacher, and basically any names which are not spelt correctly or in the traditional way are percieved as “common” ie. for Chavs in school.
If you want your child to be taken seriously by his / her teachers in school, don’t call him “Zacuri” or her “Tiffeny”.
Spelling is important and it says a lot about you.
first i am #82. woot.
Second I think different spellings are cute. I mean i would never name any child Tiffany in the first place (no offense, but it isnt that cute, and it was my dogs name). But I have a daughter already, named Rhianna (Ree-ana), or Anna. And if we have a boy I am naming him Jakob, and calling him Jak. I think that is so much cuter. Its a little bit of a twist on a normal name, without naming my kid apple or peanut or something.
And I also think that unisex names can be cute, but more for girls. Like Logan is such a cute girls name, so is Ryan.
i luv da name
tifa
