Admittedly I'm only about five minutes pregnant, so this is still at the level of a general muse rather than a real dilemma.
DH has a charming, plain, frequently occurring (especially in Wales) surname, which sounds like a first name. You know the sort of thing. My taste in first names is pretty conservative, especially for boys - I like the old school classics, preferably biblical (despite being a godless atheist myself). So future DC is likely to be one of many many people with his or her name.
Is this condemning him or her to a life of mediocrity or secretly a stroke of genius? I'm convincing myself that the greatest gift one could give a child of the 21st century is relative internet anonymity. AIBU?
(Yes, I know, we should just choose a name we like. But I'd be interested to hear thoughts)
