Name Popularity

Upon reading the church bulletin this morning on the way back from mass, I read through the 18 babies that were baptized during the month of June at our parish. There were 12 boys of which 4 had names of Andrew (or a form of Andrew) and 2 had names of Liam. Ray and I really chuckle as we read the baptisms because it seems that at least every other month or every third month, there is at least one or two Liams that come through. It's too late now to change our mind, but it seems like it has really picked up in popularity --- much more in the last 2 years! Connell will probably hardly meet another with his name and yet Liam will be one among many in his grade.
