A companion study showed girls' popularity with their peers was also related to the popularity of their names - although the connection was less clear for boys.
Though your parents probably meant your name to last a lifetime, remember that when they picked it they'd hardly met you, and the hopes and dreams they valued when they chose it may not match yours.
