Is name Theo too popular?

I love name Theo/Theodore but worried that is too popular. I’m FTM, no exposure to any other young kids, nursery or school so it’s hard to say if it’s really so popular in my area.

What is your experience with this name? Do you know a lot of Theo’s?

I only know one and he's of Cypriot heritage where it's a popular name ( and I work in a large school with 2 dc with wide social circles in an even larger one, and friends up and down the country ). I don't think the charts are terribly accurate past the first few as it seems to vary hugely by area.

It looks like its number 16 in the top.100 in the UK. I know there was one in my DDs nursery and now there is 1 in the reception class. I also know 1 grown up Theo! It's a really nice name, I think it's well known but not to common IMO.
