Wow, that's a question that's all over the place... Where to start?
The top boy and girl names for 2006 were Jacob and Emily.

To choose, parents have to decide how they want to start. My husband and I decided we wanted all our children to have family names. So we started there, then eliminated the ones that sounded bad, we didn't like, or didn't go well with our last name. Then we had a small group to choose from. Each set of parents does it differently. Some have friends and family give suggestions then draw out of a hat, others buy baby name books, etc.
And you can't stress about giving a 'bad' name. While you should be careful not to give your child any really obviously bad ones, the rest is up to the kids. If the kids want to make fun of a child, and their name is not an easy target, they'll find something else. So that's not a reason to freak out over naming your child.

As far as the other concerns, you can get a lot of information on the web as to the origin of names. As far as coolness, I really wouldn't worry about that stigma. You grow out of it.

Reply:Here's the list of the top 100 names for both boys %26amp; girls for last year. I don't think you can stress too hard about a name that can or cannot be made fun of - if kids want to tease someone, they'll find a way %26amp; if not the name, then they'll search for something else. The best we can do as parents %26amp; a community is to try to teach our children about respect for other people's differences, whether it is their name, their dress, the way they talk, etc.
In 2006, Emma and Aiden were still holding court, although in 2005 parents preferred Aiden spelled with -an. Meanwhile, seven newcomers entered the Top 100. For girls, Aubrey, Juliana, Maggie, and the intriguing Nevaeh 鈥?heaven spelled backward 鈥?made the list; for boys, Brody, Miles, and Peyton rose into view.
What's on the way out? Bailey and Makayla are falling fast for girls, and for boys, Julian plummeted 17 spots to #95, so it may heading for the exit. Check out more 2006 trends in baby names!

Reply:I would advise you against simply choosing one of the popular names for your child. When there are 3 or 4 kids in a classroom with the same first name things just get confusing. Try to find a name that is "normal" (meaning doesn麓t look like it floated to the surface of your alphabet soup), but still distinctive. (Don麓t take a common name and give it a weird spelling, such as Ashleigh instead of Ashley, it麓s just going to doom the poor kid to forever having to correct the spelling.)
I have survived being the only person my age with my name (the only others I麓ve encountered were at least my parents麓 age) and I can麓t remember anyone ever making fun of it.
If you麓re really obsessive about choosing a name, you could do what my sister and brother-in-law did: each of them went through a baby-name book, marking the names they liked, then put all of the names, meanings and their personal ratings in a massive database. By the time they finished, they had around 150 names, which they narrowed down to 4 girl麓s combinations (first and middle) and 3 boy麓s. Then they waited until the baby was born to actually pick a name. Personally, I think this is just a bit excessive.
Reply:People like the name Hannah for a girl and Clay or Kyle for a boy. I have heard those a lot lately.
Give a name that has meaning to you and that you feel good about.
