I love the name Nora, but I really do not want my children to have a name that any other kids in their class/school/life is going to have. I mean I don't want it to be too out there, and I know theres always a chance that they're going to meet someone with their name..

But I digress--

Should I be concerned if the name Nora has gone from #503 to #197 in the last 10 years?

How does one determine if the name will continue to rise, or hit its peak?

i have a Ceilidh, and moved o a town of 300 people and it was also the school counsellors name. It isn't even a name. (Irish word meaning party or social gathering).
