I am loving this at the moment - I've spent half the morning on it! I wish it had 2011 data, too.

How much does the actual meaning of a name (not what a name means to you) factor in when you're choosing? We finally settled on a first name for our son, due at the beginning of June, and the meaning itself when you look it up isn't exactly flattering. It's not offensive or anything, just not as "cool" as some of the other names that I had on my list. I highly doubt we'll be changing our minds either way, but I was just curious as to whether the meaning of a name was a huge issue for most people or if you prefer to choose a name that you like for other reasons.

Ok, I love the name Lucas, but unfortunately I can't use it. I was thinking maybe there's a compromise and maybe could use "Luke" as a nickname. I'm coming up blank right now, but can anyone think of names that could have the nn "Luke"? Thank you!
