I've heard that parents in Brooklyn, NY do NOT name their children Brooklyn.
This got me wondering:
Do parents in the Dakotas name their children Dakota?
Do parents in Charlotte name their daughters Charlotte?
Do parents in Georgia name their daughters Georgia?
Do parents in Montana name their children Montana?
Do ... well, you get the idea.

I would guess no. A living example, I think the name Aurora is very pretty but wouldn't use it because it's the name of a nearby town.
