Name Popularity

[ouronlylight.livejournal.com]

I've noticed that many people in this community are very anti-popular names, and I was wondering how true that is to the community as a whole.

I personally, have no problem with popular names. I grew up with a slightly unusual name (I've only known one other person to have it), and I always found myself wishing that my name were something more mainstream, like Jennifer or Lindsay or Meghan (though now I think I'd prefer a more timeless name like Elizabeth or Anna). Anyway, I was just wondering.

I LOVE Eleanor too, but am scared it's growing in popularity a little too fast... like my dd (Amelia). I posted back to the OP about it already so Ima not repeat myself. ;)
