Figuring Out Your Baby’s Name Is Not Easy
I have heard parents say that naming their child was simple. They wish that they had their child's name picked out for years.
This was definitely not the situation I found myself in when it was time to name my first born. It took my over 4 months to decide on a name. That being said, I am thankful we put so much thought into it. For me, nothing was more important than my child having their own name. I didn't want them to have the same name as the rest of the kids in their class. Nothing is worse than being the third "Jessica" at school or in the office.
If you expecting a child, or you just want to know how popular your kid's names are, here is the list of the top baby names according to the Social Security Administration:
