ARGH! How much does popularity matter?

It can't be changed I don't think. Not so it would make sense anyway xx

Aww i say use it anyway. Names you love are hard to come by and i think you know when it is 'the one'!

I think it's up to you, I said straight away that if a name was in the top 20 most popular we weren't using it so DH, without looking at said list, decided he really liked the name Jack #1 most popular for the past 10 years! In fact, going through the baby name book we picked 4 out of the top 10.

I personally have more of an issue with weird spelt names after having to spell my name to everyone all my life, most of them still get it wrong! I think it's cos I have a "normal" name with an unusual spelling so people don't think about it.
