[Opinions] Re: Addison or Emerson
in reply to a message by Emily
Just realized that was just according to BabyNames.com, and #3 on babycenter's list. I did go look at the 2005 US SSA list, and Ava was #9... still way too popular for me for a first name.

Babynames.com's list is made up from the names that are liked by the members of that board. It's not meant to be a listing of names actually used, though it has some predictive power for the future. Babycenter's list is made up of names of children born to members of BabyCenter, but they are not a random sample of the American population. Though Ava is very likely to be higher than #9 in 2006 when the offical figures come out.
