This is brilliant - exactly what i need, thank you :) Do carry on in fact!
Isn't it interesting how it seems to be so common (as in popular) in some areas and unheard of in others. I'm in rural midlands and i've never met any Darcy's as children or adults - yet .....
.... showofhands and usual i agree with both of you. There is judgment about names, and there shouldn't be. It has to be thought about though, to some extent. Maybe? 
The thing is if i was utterly devoted to a name then i wouldn't care a jot about what people thought about the name. My youngest DD is Daisy. I have 2 older DDs who's names i love, but all along i wanted 'Daisy'. You hear the name more now, but not so much back then (she's 15). It was considered unusual and a bit ponsy. I was quite young when i had my first 3 and didn't pluck up the courage to push for my favorite name till that no.3! :) I did get a few snidey comments, but i never cared. Like you showofhands. I'm so glad now that i went for it. DD has had lots of lovely comments on her name. And she suits it.
I'm not dead set on Darcy. I really don't know. Francesca - oh i just cant picture me standing there saying it ....... to family, and then school, etc, y'know? arrgghh.
I think we better hope it's a boy! The only general consensus of opinion from MN, me and DH is that Leo is nice, lol.
Leoni is ok, but it doesn't grab me.
Had to laugh at bluestars: then I saw Darcey Bussel on Strictly and she annoyed me so much with her "yah" that I had to scratch it. i know! Her dancing is fabulous, but there is something about her that makes my teeth itch :)
I think i might talk to DH about Tabitha again. But if i remember rightly it was quite a strong no to that one from him.
