How much does the actual meaning of a name (not what a name means to you) factor in when you're choosing? We finally settled on a first name for our son, due at the beginning of June, and the meaning itself when you look it up isn't exactly flattering. It's not offensive or anything, just not as "cool" as some of the other names that I had on my list. I highly doubt we'll be changing our minds either way, but I was just curious as to whether the meaning of a name was a huge issue for most people or if you prefer to choose a name that you like for other reasons.

My name is Louisa. I've read 'famed/famous warrior' and 'fame and war'. Which makes sense with Lewis :)
