myself and DW will be starting to TTC soon.

since being together we have had a boys name set, and we did have a girls name but in the 5 years we have been together it has climbed in popularity and now I'm having second thoughts.

My eldest DS has a super popular for his age name and looking back I wish I had chosen something else (although he is named after my grandfather I was gutted it was the most popular name for a few years around his birth)

would you still use a name that's very popular or do you prefer something a little different (or even something totally unusual!)

What is it?

It wouldn't put me off, if you like the name you like the name!
