How does your kiddos name rank in the top 10 and oh my gosh cute...

I think I read one time that picking out your child's name ranks as one of the most important decisions in your life. I know a lot of care went into picking Will's name out. We found it much easier to pick out girls names but boys names were a bit harder for us. When picking a name you want to make sure the name is strong and that they won't be made fun of for the name you picked. We would discuss names and veto it for one reason or another. It was kinda challenging.

The other funny thing I found is that people are really kinda secretive about what they will name their kids so that no one copies. I thought this was just a celebrity thing but it isn't.

So according to the Social Security Administration here are the top 10 boy and girl names for 2007. I was surprised to see William made the list when we named Will there really weren't a lot of Will's or Williams and his name didn't seem to make the "list"


Top 10 names for 2007
Boy / Girl
1. Jacob Emily
2. Michael Isabella
3. Ethan Emma
4 Joshua Ava
5. Daniel Madison
6 Christoper Sophia
7. Anthony Olivia
8. William Abigail
9. Matthew Hannah
10. Andrew Elizabeth

Note: Rank 1 is the most popular.

Is your kiddos name on the "list" and how did you decide on your kiddos name?
