Why do I drive myself crazy?

LOL So I think we agreed on a name, but I still keep looking. Heehee I think it is just an obsession. Our son's name is William Jackson (Will), and the girl's name we like is Emma Charlotte. I know it is really popular, but it has special meaning to us (it is the initials of our 4 grandmothers plus mine: Elizabeth/Ethel, Mary, Millie, Allison) and we don't personally know any Emmas. What do you think? Thanks.

I am also considering Emma. I love it but like you said it's popular. However in my experience everytime I pick a name it becomes poplular so you can't win LOL. Like you my DD Ashlynn is initials (Amy, Sean and H our last name) I had never heard the name before now it's almost in the top 100 names! DD#2 Rhiannon, I had never met anyone with that name. Now I have met four little girls with that name.
I say go with it it's very pretty. If you love it that's all that matters.
Great name! You could just stick with the 4 grandmothers' initials and do Emme (as in Emmy). Not quite as popular and still very pretty. Just an idea...

from one Amy to another...
I'm sure our parents thought our name was unique when they named us as well (mine specifically chose it because they didn't know any Amys) and we became #2 in the 70s.
It was annoying to have so many classmates with my name, but I've met fewer and fewer Amys in the workforce, and I still really like my name.

Amy,
I know what you mean!!!! I had at least 3-4 Amys just in my Class not to mention the grade I was in. That is why with my girls names I was going for a little more unique. I know quite a few Amys now one is in the Family. I love my name though. It fits me.
I really like Emma but I have such a hard time giving my daughter a Common name. However if you really love it, should you sacrafise??? I don't know.
I like Cassidy, Annelise and Emma. I am having a hard time with this also. I am hoping for a boy in which it will be Logan or Aidan. Good Irish names :) It's so hard to name your children. I just hope they don't hate their names. For a while I did because everyone had it!
I think Will and Emma are perfect together.
