I of course think about how it would be to have a certain name before I'd consider using it. For example, I love the name Llewelyn, but would hesitate to use it as a first name because the kid would constantly have to be telling people how to pronounce and spell it. Names like that, if I really did want to use them, would go in the middle name slot. I think pronunciation issues are a bigger deal than if a name sounds dated, like Betty.
