The Not so Unique Jackson

I was reading an article the other day about the top baby names of 2008. Coming in at number 2 is Jacob, number 5 was Jack, and number 9 Jackson. Even with a nickname of Jake that's a lot of little boys with quite similar names. Bentley? I haven't met another of those yet. Genevieve? We've met 1 at the grocery store, but also pretty unusual. Jackson? I find a few on every street corner. What was I thinking?!



Disclaimer: I don't seriously think that finding other Jacksons all over the place is going to traumatize the kid. My Dad is a Mark and my husband is a Matthew, and they appear to be perfectly well adjusted.
