Is your baby name on here? Do you worry about how popular a name is? I do. I won't go naming the baby Bronx Mowgli or anything, but I will reject a name if it's too popular. I like family names too.
I think it's interesting to see how pop culture influences the list. Britney's kids names are on there, Aiden is from Sex and the City, and Emma was Jennifer Anniston's baby's name on friends! Coincidence? I think not.
I won't reveal her name.... but we are going to call her....
COCO!
Baby Coco is coming to town! Yahoo!

Neither of my kids' names are on the list and I have to say I like it that way. I chose their names because I liked them and because I didn't want them to have a name that every other kid has. I'm not sure if I've told you their names... in case I haven't...
McKenna Raynn
Brady Robert
hope you are feeling well!
Yea for Coco!!!
I see my Sofia is still ranked high up, we just do not spell it with the ph.
I am loving Coco as a nickname!
Too cute!
Super cute nickname for baby! I don't see our baby girl name on there--but it has had a rise in popularity. Every time I tell someone it, they say "like the name of the kid in the TV show..."...I want to yell "NO! I had it first!!!!" but, don't. LOL.
Landon was in the running for our boys name...until I really made the connection that it is your sons name. Even though we don't really know each other, I can't knowingly share a name with someone I even sometimes chat with! LOL.
I am having mixed feelings about sharing our real names on the blog...we'll see. I may just do it.
Coco is a cute name! From the popular list - it pretty much mirrors the popular names over here as well! Are you choosing middle names?
I can already tell she is going to be one hip little girl with a nickname like that! I love it!
I am so tired of the Cayden, Jayden, Brayden names!
Cute nick name! :)
Both my girl and boy choices are in the top 10! Guess I'm not too creative lol!
Neither of my children's names is on the list and that i fine with me. Both have very traditional + family names. I am totally against very trendy | weird names. Parents sometimes forget that the child is the answering in class when roll is called and getting a smirk or whatever cause the name is weird. Many children don't like having those "weird" names. Can you tell that I taught school for 30+ years? hehe
when i was little i hated my name cos no one had it, i felt it was an old lady's name, hah! but about a couple years ago i began seeing it everywhere! then i secretly wished it wasn't so popular, hahaha. my friend's thought i was nuts and just imagining things, but then the list came out, bam! #2!!! hahaha!
oh, so now you know my real name ;)
Counting down until Coco's arrival! Super cute. I am happy for you guys!
Neither of my boys' names are on there and I like it that way. Although I do feel bad when we're in toy stores with "name" items. #1 is always looking for his and it's not there! I like Coco. 10 weeks to go?! Wow!
Coco is too cute for a nickname! I don't have kids yet, but love the name Riley for a girl and Kurt for a boy. My dad's middle name is Kurt and I would love to honor him by using it.
I agree that you don't want a name that is toooooo popular...our girl name when I was pregnant with R was "Madeline" and then suddenly *everyone* started naming their girls Madeline. Both our boys have family names. :)
Coco is adorable!! Popularity was a factor (con) when we were choosing our children's names...we didn't want anything too outlandish, but we didn't want our kids to be one of several with the same name in their classes (We know soooo many Ava'a!) So...Caroline Anne & Finnegan James...not too unusual, but not overdone either.
Yipeee for Coco!!!
My favorite Auntie is called Coco, her name is Corinne though. I always think I'd use family names if I were ever to have children. Especially since my dad passed, I loved his middle name, Douglas.
Thanks for sharing her nickname...so excited!!! Hope you are feeling well!!
Yep. Angry Toddler is on the list, #5...sigh... It was soo original in 2005.
I love love love the nickname Coco.
P.S. Send me your address... I'm going to mail you that "One Fifth Avenue" book I was talking about on my blog last week.....

Aw, what a cute nickname!
Clearly, we don't have kids yet, but, I have my names picked out (I think). They aren't overly popular, but are more popular than I thought they would be (I check the lists regularly!!). We like traditional or "older" names if you will, but, they seem to be climbing the ranks these days! And yes, Emma wasn't even popular until Friends! It's a family name for us, but, we won't use it because it's soooo popular, and every since we started dating, I dreamed of naming our daughter Emma after her aunt, great grandmother, etc... boo!
Love Coco! We call my daughter, Catherine "Cat"...I thought I was so original...lol! Then it started showing up in movies and tv! Oh well!
coco, so cute! i love the nickname. bradley i am sure isn't on the list, he is actually bradford or 'brad' his grandfather who passed away a week before i found out i was pregnant. i love family names too!!
We love CoCo. That's what my sister is called by all her nieces and nephew.
Great nickname!!! How did you decide on that?
Oh Coco is really cute!
And I definitely make sure my names are NOT on the top lists. I love traditional, but not too common. When I'm on trips or in stores where they have those displays with things (pens/magnets/keychains, etc.) with all the kids names on it, I'm secretly thrilled when neither of my girl's names are there because it means they're not trendy.
My son's name is #15...on the girl's side! Oh well, it suits him.
My mom's name and my middle name is at #25.
Love Coco, so cute!
Love Coco - because it is my sister's nickname (have to stop myself from calling her that at work!- we work at the newspaper together)- My name is Claire Avis - I was named for my mom's cousin Claire and a good friend of my mom's, Avis Lovejoy (always liked that name), and I loved my middle name until the Rent-A-Car business started!!! They really ruined the name for me.
I love the Nick name Coco. My roommate in college was Coco- (1980).. she still goes by it today. Love it.
I agree the that single Mom is FN!
coco is cute but it's courteney cox's daughter's name... so no making fun of emmas and aidens!
Is CoCo short for Courtney? That's the nickname my girlfriend uses. And my daughter has school friend named Nicole that uses that nickname. Congrats on picking a name!
Coco is such a cute nickname! I hope you are doing well!
