Choosing a name for your baby boy or baby should not be a complicated process. You just have to make sure that your baby gets the right baby boy name or baby girl name (depending on the gender), and by right, it means it doesn’t matter if it’s not in the top 100 baby names or didn’t come from a list of the most popular baby names, or if it isn’t a unique baby name at all. You should choose something that has meaning to you but still not embarrassing to your kid when he or she grows up. For example, a recent census of the top 100 baby boy names show that the most popular of the US’ registered baby boy names is “Jacob”, which had a nice biblical meaning to it, yet not unique enough to be embarrassing. The top baby girl name “Emily” on the other hand, seems to have come from more contemporary sources.

Meanings of baby names are important and they should be something that you want your baby to be when he or she grows up. For example, the 2^nd most popular baby boy name “Michael” means poor and humble, or it could also refer to the biblical archangel, who symbolizes power and loyalty. It’s also the name of many popular celebrities ranging from pop stars to sports athletes. No matter what name you choose, you just have to keep in mind that it’s a name your baby will have to live with for the rest of his life, so choose wisely.
