We had his name picked out for yearsssss. It's DHs uncle's name. We call him H@nk, so I don't think that's quite as popular! All of the family names I've loved forever are now becoming more popular: Alice, Eliza, hazel...booooooo! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/popular-baby-names-in-your-area#post-2429964 Wed, 20 Jan 2016 17:47:57 +0000 LindsayLou 2429964@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Liam, Asher, Jackson, Emily, Lilly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/popular-baby-names-in-your-area#post-2429961 Wed, 20 Jan 2016 17:41:30 +0000 Mrs. Cheesecake 2429961@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've heard a lot of Liam, Olivia and Mia. Surprisingly I've met a couple kids who share my son's name, which made me sad since his name isn't very common overall. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/popular-baby-names-in-your-area#post-2429949 Wed, 20 Jan 2016 17:28:53 +0000 Foodnerd81 2429949@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@californiadreams: well the post above your last one pretty much is my two girls names (add an A and its them!) by I've hardly met any other C's at least. </p> <p>Or G will hate me for giving her a name where she always has to go by her last name! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/popular-baby-names-in-your-area#post-2429862 Wed, 20 Jan 2016 16:34:42 +0000 californiadreams 2429862@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Foodnerd81: this thread is making me really reconsider.

But we love it so we went with it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/popular-baby-names-in-your-area#post-2429810 Wed, 20 Jan 2016 16:01:34 +0000 ShootingStar 2429810@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Wow, so many occurrences of Lily! That's a our top contender for the currently cooking #2. I had no idea it was even popular. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/popular-baby-names-in-your-area#post-2429802 Wed, 20 Jan 2016 15:55:31 +0000 DesertDreams88 2429802@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Liam, Wyatt, and Lincoln. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/popular-baby-names-in-your-area#post-2429582 Wed, 20 Jan 2016 14:11:01 +0000 californiadreams 2429582@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I've heard Jackson a number of times. </p> <p>And normally I would say that I would not choose a super popular name but it turns out the only name that DH and I both genuinely like is a top name - it has been mentioned in this thread a few times already and I was cringing at that! But unless we magically come up with another name that we both like in the next 3 weeks, it looks like we are helping to maintain this name's popularity! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/popular-baby-names-in-your-area#post-2429573 Wed, 20 Jan 2016 14:04:39 +0000 MrsLonghorn 2429573@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Henry, Penelope, and Callan/Callen </p> <p>@alba4 so funny that you said Michael.
