I think it's great - classic and timeless, so it won't sound dated in a few years or scream "2006 baby!" I actually only know one Rachel... it's not THAT common.
exactly, you can hear the name Rachel and not pinpoint when she was born. Unlike all the Aiden and Jaiden and Brayden's being born - everyone knows those people are under 5.
okay, there are exceptions to every rule. in general, if you hear of someone called hayden or brayden or jayden or cayden, you can bet they're no older than 5.
Maybe so for all the others, generally at least, but Hayden is actually quite a popular older name. Maybe more of a last name in earlier years, though.
