We have settled on Anna Elizabeth for dd4 due in may. I love how it's really well known but not too popular. However, I've noticed a few comments that mention it may be increasing in popularity.

I already have 3 dds with really popular names (didn't realise how popular when I chose them). I think I'd prefer something slightly less popular this time round.

Do you know many?

I don't know any. It's a lovely classic name anyway so who cares if it's popular? Your DD will thank you for giving her a name that everyone can pronounce and spell!!

I think it's classic and timeless so I don't think it'll ever explode in popularity and date the way that some names do. I went to school with an Anna in the 80s and she was just the most stunning girl and actually genuinely nice so I love it. I think it's one of those names that everyone loves but is rarely used as it gets over looked for more 'unique' names that end up becomming ridiculously popular! If you like it use it, at the end of the day it's a beautiful name so if it does get popular then it's for a good reason!

Lots of 'populars' in that post! Sorry for my lack of imagination :)
