I didn't realize William and Daniel were so popular.

William has been in the top 13 for the past 30 years according to the SSA (it's my husbands' name, so I was checking) :)

That's nuts! I really don't think I hear it all that much (even considering the common nicknames). Maybe it's just not as noticeable as the Aidens and stuff because it's classic. I never really notice a ton of Elizabeths but it's been pretty high up for ages I think. Must be the classic thing!
