What is up with people in recent years naming their kids such... original names? What happened to just naming your kids Dave or Bill or something? It's just something odd I've noticed.

It tends to go in phases - from more traditional names to more exotic and back. I think names should be from the family or variants of family names.

Here's some weird name synchronicity: my name (OK, initials) is actually JDT - the J and D both match the first names of the wifey's bro's - her parents are the same as my Dad's folks names - the older of the two brothers and I have the SAME birthday (His wife's is 2 days before us).

i want my kids to have unique names so that they don't run into these problems

Yeah, I guess you're right, but I think when naming your kids you should look at what that name could do to them in the future. As in, people making fun of them for it or having their name effect their career opportunities in the future. I mean, how many presidents do we have with the name Kjartan?

Okay, you failed at using that to make your point.
...Kjartan is one of the MOST popular Scandinavian names that exists. It's not something I pulled out of a hat. I'm sorry, but nothing would ever make me name a child Dave or Bill or Joann or Mary or Ashley or John or anything painfully common (no offense, bbz).
No Scandinavian names are going to affect a child's potential career.

...THAT WOULD BE SOMETHING LIKE SHANIQUA OR SADDAM.

Oh, by the way, you may have a president named BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA soon. So your point TRULY fails.
