Mine is very common.

UserSince2005 28-08-2020 06:26 AM

unique

Niamh. 28-08-2020 07:24 AM

It's fairly common in Ireland

Cherie 28-08-2020 07:30 AM

not too common any more

Crimson Dynamo 28-08-2020 07:36 AM

Retro

Been pretty common since the Victorian times, apparently :D

I'm pretty sure my name does come front that book/musical, as my dad would sometimes give me not quite enough food, so when I asked for more he would sing that song at me...

Babayaro. 28-08-2020 08:09 AM

Neither. My name is Marc.

Nicky91 28-08-2020 08:10 AM

quite common, for both men and women :laugh:

joeysteele 28-08-2020 08:27 AM

Not sure of the exact present.
A couple of years ago my name Joseph was 23rd on the list of 100 boys names.

So I guess fairly common on that listing.

Slight tangent but I believe that Michael has the most number of extremely successful people / world champions / best in field of ANY christian name .

“Shaun is the least popular spelling of the once-wildly popular name, more usually spelled Sean or Shawn.”

Wtf!! That’s the only way the name should be spelt :fist: although... that does mean it is less common and therefore unique :hee:

Seán is an Irish name, so that is the correct and original spelling, Shaun and Shawn are anglicized versions of it
