@knittylady: I know my kids' names aren't super uncommon or anything, not even Rosalie, but I guess we simply haven't hung out with other people that have that same taste in names. I do have one good internet friend with a son named Gabriel, but we've never hung out, so our boys have never been in the same room, lol.
-
0 so far but a friend's LO has the same nickname with a different spelling.
-
Not a one. Doubtful he'll encounter another Llewelyn anytime soon.
As for me, there were three other Amy's in my graduating high school class. Out of 140 girls.
-
Nope- but she's only 3 months
But I don't think I will. The only other Effies I know of are DH's (late) grandmother, another baby I don't know except that they use the same #effiegram hashtag I do on instagram, and Effie Trinket from the hunger games, although she's fictional -
We've met one other Evan.
As for me, I'm a Sarah born in 1985. There were 4 of us--JUST in my group of friends. AND I have a SIL named Sarah (with whom, for a bit over a decade, I shared a first AND last name!)
-
None yet! LO's name is becoming more common but we haven't met another yet!
-
@lovehoneybee: There were two Sarahs in my grade growing up who were best friends. I always wondered how they addressed each other! I work at an elementary school and there is not one Sarah at all!
-
Fwiw, I love that name Rosalie! Anyway, there were two with my LO's name out of 6 kids so that's 33percent of the room!
-
None. Although, my parents were on a cruise and a couple there had a baby about A's age with the same name.

@Katrocap: In school we were addressed each other normally, of course, and even while if addressed while together it was just usually addressed as Sarah (with obvious eye contact as to whom the speaker was referring). If there were more than 2 of us present the speaker would usually use a last initial.
One of us tried to change her name pronounciation to Su-Ree in junior year but it fizzled (she was a Sara, though, not a Sarah
)With my SIL it was harder, particularly with my stepmom who just started calling us Big Sarah (her, older) and Little Sarah, but it always irked me a bit. It was more confusing on FB before I got married...zone of my HS friends got really confused to see me "talking to myself" and my BIL is now FB friends with SIL, friending her thinking it was a secondary profile of mine (and getting REALLY confused the first time he read something about her then 11-year-old son...)

@FarmWifeGina: I know two women who had Gabriels in November.
For DS, I've never met anyone IRL in the US with his name. However it is a very common name in France (and currently very popular) and I've met people young and old with his name. We were at a wedding last year and an 8 year old had the same name.
So far for DD just one, a nurse at the hospital where she was born, but her name is fairly common in a lot of places.
But I don't think I will. The only other Effies I know of are DH's (late) grandmother, another baby I don't know except that they use the same #effiegram hashtag I do on instagram, and Effie Trinket from the hunger games, although she's fictional
