Is it just me, or does everyone seem to be choosing basically the same names for their children? We'll get the occasional wacky BA's around here, but mostly it seems like people are sticking to Jon & Kate Plus 8 names (Alexis, Aidan, Leah, etc.) If they aren't J&K+8, they're the same bland, ho-hum, minivan names/combos I've heard a million times already (ANOTHER Emma Grace? How many do we need!?).

I'm not really complaining-there is absolutely nothing WRONG with these names-I'm just a name nerd, and sometimes I get frustrated. There is an endless supply of names out there, and the same ones get recycled over and over again.

I like -
Emily Grace
Jane
Emma Grace, despite how many 'Emma Grace's' there are, its lovely
Leah Alexis
Alexis
Ana, spelt Anna
Hannah Elisabeth
Hayley, spelt Hailey
Bailey

::Girls::

- Morgan LeAnne- Morgan's kind of masculine. LeAnne is nice but would be better Leanne
- Emily Grace- Beautiful
- Alisha Paige- Don't like
- Shelby Dawn- Shelby is horrible, but Dawn is nice
- Crystal Jane- It's alright. Jane is kind of plain
- Emma Grace- It's alright
- Brooke Marie- It's okay
- Bethanee Lee- Bethany Leah would be better. I think Lee should only be a boy name.
- Mariyah Carrie (ha, yeah, I'm serious).- Couldn't they have named her Mariyah Caroline.
- Leah Alexis- I hate the name Alexis. Leah Alexia would be better/
- Alexis Bailey- Just bad, especially since Bailey is part of the name
- Ana Michelle- Anna Michelle would be better
- Hannah Elisabeth- Pretty
- Hayley Anne- It's alright
- Bailey Faith- Bailey is a horrible name. Faith is cute

- Kirby Holden- Kirby is bad and Holden isn't much better
- Collin Tucker- Too trendy for my taste
- Jackson O'Neal- I don't like it
- Bailey Thomas- I hate the name Bailey, but I guess it's a little bit better on boys than girls
