I loved the name and was so excited that she was the only Molly in a sea of Lily/Lilly/Lillians, a Reese and a few other trendy names. I went with classic and deviated on our family's spelling of her middle name. My aunt and grandmother are/were Kathryn. I thought that the two y's were too much and went with Katherine as the spelling. Molly is SUCH a Molly! I love the name Patrick for a boy...classic and traditional, but it's the only name I like for a boy! I want to have another baby in threeish years and love the name Kelly for a girl.Coach KChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18065191168955955160noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2786999190166559345.post-23799030240526229362011-05-11T20:18:29.300-05:002011-05-11T20:18:29.300-05:00Yep, I'm with you entirely on this.

I hadn't noticed the "A" thing either, but you're absolutely right.<br /><br />I'm bummed that many of my favorite classic names - Grace, Claire, Emily - are so popular right now.

An awful name. <br /><br />I also love Emily - it is in my top choices should I ever have another daughter. <br /><br />While I imagine Catherine or Katherine is in the top 100 (I haven't checked yet) - Kathryn is how I spell my daughter's name, so it is probably not on there!Skipperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17612524250976745861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2786999190166559345.post-80300111712473129472011-05-09T19:53:48.295-05:002011-05-09T19:53:48.295-05:00Love seeing your comments on this, especially the ...Love seeing your comments on this, especially the insight about those girls names ending in "a", I hadn't noticed that.

Our favorite names aren't necessarily the same, but they are the classic/preppy names. :) My #1 girl's and boy's name are NOT on the top 1000 list but are becoming more popular. They are not weird or anything either. One of my favorite girls names was always Hadley, thanks to Ernest Hemingway, and I know so many people that have named their daughters Hadley. Totally bums me out, because it's becoming trendy. I also love Quinn, but that's also shooting up big time. And, I also love Elizabeth... family name. I think you could totally do Emily. I am of the notion that if it's a classic name, it can always be done no matter how popular or unpopular. But, if the name is a little off the beaten path, I'd prefer not to know anyone whose kids have the same name, as is the case with my two favorites. I know of people with kids with the names, just not anyone personally. P.S. I am apparently superstitious since I don't broadcast the names... I feel like if I do, I am asking one of my friends to name their son or daughter "my" names! hahaKristinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07189526001659592159noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2786999190166559345.post-55652879635071315142011-05-06T08:00:08.088-05:002011-05-06T08:00:08.088-05:00I think you could totally name a little girl Emily...I think you could totally name a little girl Emily- I mean, what a wonderful name, right? I kid!<br />I didn't look at the whole list, but my grandmother's name was Estelle, and I have recently decided that I would love to name a little girl that and call her Stella for short.<br />For boys, I think we'll trend towards more traditional names- and probably have a junior. Ed's first name is William, so I can imagine us having a Will one day.<br />I also love Jake because that was my grandfather's name (Short for James Isaac)<br /><br />Wow- a lot of info, huh?USCEmilyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00852040429325597281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2786999190166559345.post-77796381928467451992011-05-06T00:23:10.461-05:002011-05-06T00:23:10.461-05:00Totally agree on names!

And the girl equivalents (at least out here): kaylee, kiley (however you spell that one).<br /><br />I like a lot of the popular girl names (Olivia, Sophia, Lilly). I just hope by the time I have kids they aren't popular!<br /><br />I love the name Spencer :)Katehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00754129167778925729noreply@blogger.com
