Over in the States, it's a little different.
Modern baby-naming trends show that more 'ordinary' names have actually fallen out of favour.
"Parents (in the US) today want their kids' names to stand out," Laura Wattenberg of BabyNameWizard.com told CafeMom. "Every one of these styles is about being new, different, and eye-catching. Parents are putting a lot of pressure on themselves to sound fresh and unique.
