Common as in well used

I would say fairly common

My short name is common although I rarely meet anyone my age with the same name.

I've never met anyone with my proper name in real life.

Uncommmon - Rare in fact.

Uncommon in my age group or younger. The only people I've met with the same name are over 70!

I'm 25.

Uncommon but well known

Common name but less common spelling.

Uncommon. I've seen it mentioned very positively on here, but it's still not popular at all. It's similar to a much more common name which I'm constantly mistaken for.

I go through phases of liking it and wishing I had a more recognisable name. Having to spell it out and correct people all the time is a pain.

Fairly common in the 70's/early 80's. Rarely used now.

Extremely common when I was born (2 others in my primary school class, a different 4 in my year at secondary), fell out of favour for 30 years or so, now common again.

Common and common. I'd love to change it.

Classic and quite uncommon when I was growing up, I could never get a personalised pencil case... but now it's in the top 100 and much beloved on MN.

I hated having an unusual name when I was youger, now I hate that it is becoming so popular

Ide say quite uncommon but I've noticed a few more of me popping up. I even answered a mother calling her child because I thought she was calling me

Not unheard of but I’ve only met another one once.

It was when very uncommon when l baby and to a degree when l was a child. Totally usual now! Funny bearing in mind all of the stupid questions and judgements must mum got about it

@orangenasturtium same here!

Uncommon.

I have met two people who have the same name (one when I was at uni and the mum of a girl in DS's class - so both around the same age as me). I can also think of one celebrity and several well known fictional characters with this name.

Uncommon. I've only met two people with my name, both with a variant spelling.

Common, although I haven't met that many personally weirdly. There are a lot of famous people with it who are a bit older than me, maybe it was dropping out of fashion by the time I got to it

Very common it was a top ten name the year I was born.
There were 5 of us in a two form entry school.
My last work place of 11, 3 of us had this name all of a similar age.

Uncommon.

Common and classic. Both then and now. Despite that I could rarely find 'things' with my name on a a child. :(

Very very very very very common. There was maybe 5 of us in the same class. It's still very common. There are 4 in my niece's class , 3 in my son's class ( and he's 3).

Was apparently a common name but I've only come across 3 in my lifetime who are all in the same age group as me(40). Not heard it used outside of my generation.

Very uncommon and never met another! Although an old work friend has just used it for his new baby boy....

Quite common

My NN is very common, actual name (long version of it) pretty uncommon. Rising in popularity though. Classic name.
