Just wondering. When you vote in a poll, do you NOT vote for your own kid's names for fear of them becoming too popular. Or do you vote for them b/c you just can't resist?

Hope

I usually vote by what sounds the best together.
If the choice happens to be one of my daughters names than so be it :-)

I just vote for my fav...which ends up usually being my dd's name if it is involved, but not always. Sometimes another sounds better if the siblings are listed, or mn's, or ln. I don't worry about my dd's name getting overly popular...think last time i checked it was #14..doesn't bother me though.

I vote for whichever name I honestly like best. If it's my child's name (often it is) then I vote for it. Sometimes I find other names in a poll that I actually like better ... can you believe it?!?! Then I vote for that name. This web site isn't much of a factor in the national popularity of names so I'm not worried about its influence.

Good question!
