Not sure what this obsession for avoiding 'popular' names is all about. My name was unusual as I was growing up, and I would have given my right arm to be a Louise/Clare/Emma/Sarah, as these were the popular names then.
As long as you like the name, I'd try not to get too hung up on how many 'Daisy's' a stranger on MN knows in her village....
