    Well, I guess it's not really any of my my business what people name their babies, but still, I don't understand what's wrong with common names like Robert, or Jeffrey (Considering they are English.)

    I have two nieces named Za'miya, and Za'niya (I guess that's how you spell them.) But yet my nephews are named Michael and Marcus. Odd.

      Why can't somebody call their child something unique, without people presuming it means they are 'looking down' on common names or thinking they are worth less? I think it's nice when people are willing to be creative with names. An individual name for an individual person, nothing wrong with that.

      Robert is German by the way :P

        I'll admit, I didn't know Robert was German.

        Also, I wasn't trying to imply that people looked down on normal names, I was just saying what was on my mind.
        I dunno, I was tired when I wrote that.

          That's alright, I was just commenting on the "I don't understand what's wrong with common names" part of your answer, I wasn't having a go at you :)

          Someone thumbed me down anyway so I guess my opinion is in the minority, or somehow offensive to someone.

            Okay. I didn't thumbs you down though, just in case you were wondering. I didn't really see how your previous comment was offensive.

              Ha I guessed it wasn't you anyway. Some people get a little thumb-happy I guess :)
