Why ?!!
I think my name is more popular in my Country.

Well in English speaking countries, Julian is more prevalent, but still, it is a very unpopular name in America. Kids used to ask me if my name was a girl's name or call me Jules Verne in elementary school.

But I very rarely run into anyone named Julian or Julien.

^^ Yeah, it sound too much Latin for the Yankees.

Yeah. Most American names are biblical names. Not too many latin, greek, germanic, or other pagan names.

Though when I went to grade school, there was a kid named Leif who's older brother was named Thor.

I like the name Maya.

Dammit, there are already way too many Daniels in the world.

Slavomir is not in the top 1000 male names for any year of birth in the last 15 years.

Fucking shit.

thurston = torsten

google that in germany

sonic youth = neonazi band :D

i fear for something, not sure what.....

after hitting it's peak in 1881 at 121th place, Eli had been dropping to a abysmal 706th place in 1964

yet it rebounded to it's highest level since the Arthur administration in 2007 with a 130 place showing

I really can't stand the names Isabella or Emma

EDIT: Sorry EMMAh, but my name is Marty, so we're even :)

american names are certainly more weirder than uk names.

They call him by his middle name though, which is better.

My daugters name is very unique, I hope it never winds up as a top 10. I have never known anyone with her name. And until recently, my name was very uncommon, which I loved. But, now it seems to be popular. No one spells it like I do though, except some European pet supply company.

i know her from my school dayzzzzzzz but shes quite abit younger than i am

My name is getting shafted the recognition it deserves because votes are being split between Alex and Alexander.

There are too many Matthews and Mikes in North America.
