I read not too long ago that by the year 2040, the most common name among middle-aged U.S. women will be "Emily." I believe it's true, because since 1981, about 1 out of 3 female babies born to my friends and relatives have been given this name. There are two in my husband's family alone, born within a year of one another. So, if you're thinking about naming your daughter "Emily," think twice. Do you really want your child to be one of three or four or five Emilies in her class or office? Apr 22 06, 8:17 PM

I have to agree with brodwaygirl. The most popular boy name in 2007 was Jacob, and Emily for girls. Some of the most unique were Trystan and Zaniya. RE: http://babynames.merschat.com/unique.cgi Sep 07 08, 5:30 PM
