@Looch: In the case of DD's name, I think it's just because it's more of an "old-fashioned" name, not because of an unusual spelling.

@looch: DD's name is a normal spelling, it's just not a name that ever took off.

@looch: I have no idea... Jaren has different variations of spelling, but even those variations are uncommon. But his name is not made up - it actually means "to cry out in joy; to rejoice" in Hebrew! It fits him perfectly because he is such a joyful, happy lil fella.

Not in the top 1000. And not a made up name or unique spelling.

I wonder sometimes if they are ethnic, too...mine is very much so.
I hope you all aren't assuming I think the names are made up!

@looch: I think some might be unique spellings, but one of the names we're considering wasn't in the top 1000 until 2 years ago and it's not that weird a name I don't think? It's also a very old name.

My LOs name was last in the 1000s in 1939. I think it rhymes with @septca's.

@septca: I like it!
My son's name is kind of dated, I think, but it suits him somehow, lol. It's around the 800s now, but has been declining.

Top 5.
I chose a popular name intentionally. I have a name never/not in the top anything, so I specifically chose a name he wouldn't have to spell for everyone, like I had to.

LO's name was 483 last year, so hopefully it won't have changed too much for 2014!
