Is the name Kingston very ~trendy~ right now?

If not, what middle names flow with it?

I don't know if it's trendy, but there's the rapper Sean Kingston and Gwen Stefani's boys name is Kingston.

For middle names I could see
James
Gabriel

I was going to say this. Also, Gwen's son is Kingston James so I'd stay away from that combo.

Kingston goes with lots of one- and two-syllable middles, imo. Off the top of my head:
Kingston Lee
Kingston Alan
Kingston Eric
Kingston Robert
Kingston Adam
Kingston Michael

I think that it's trendy in the way that names that end with an "en" sound are.

It's trendy, and I think it's also a silly name for an adult.

I have no idea if it's trendy or not, but I don't think it's a name that ages very well... =/
Sean Kingston (a rapper) came to mind first, then I remembered Gwen Stefani's kid.

It IS quite trendy (http://www.babynamewizard.com/voyager/#prefix=kingston&ms=false&exact=false).

It shot from not being in the top 1000 in 2005 to being #225 in 2009. I'd say it's probably pretty trendy, especially considering it's a place name and a surname.
