Think we got one!

I've been incessently bothering my husband about figuring out a boy's name before our ultrasound. He thinks he likes Jayden Paul (which uses my father's middle name), and I like it.

It's not my first choice, but what do y'all think?

Oooh, trust me, having a super-common name is no fun at all. My name was the second most popular for the year I was born -- I was surrounded by people with my name growing up, and I HATED it. Made me feel so...ordinary. My mom had no idea that the name was so common...too bad she didn't have the Internet there to assist her in her choice!

So I, too, would advise against any -ayden-type name.

I agree. I know so many people with my name. There's always been people with the same name in my class and it always gets confusing. My name is Amanda btw. It was number three the year I was born. I go by Mandy now but even with my nickname I still run into people with the same name all the time.

My name is Jennifer. I had the top name for like a decade, so trust me, I know living with a common name.
