I don't know if this is helpful or not, but one of my criteria on picking a name was that it was distinctive enough and short enough that when you yelled at a playground, your kid would know it's his name. That sort of leaves out the wildly popular names. If you yell "Rachel" and 20 kids come to you, it's not good.
I did draw the line on something like "Moon Unit Zappa" though. Word is she didn't particularly like that name. Then there is George Forman 1 through 20 or something. Remember your kid has to live with your decision!
