Is Astronaut too trendy?
My family has found a name we absolutely LOVE for our baby boy, it’s beautiful and I think goes so well with our daughters’ names, and I thought it was uncommon but familiar and easy to spell!
Lately, though, everyone we’ve told (only because they ask, everyone is always so concerned with what I name my children) has commented on how trendy Astronaut has become. Between friends, coworkers, daycare parents, and Facebook, I’ve heard of at least four little Astronauts recently, nicknamed: Astro, Naut, Aster, Ronnie
Now I’m worried Astronaut is becoming the next Liam or Theodore.
Would this stop you from using a name you loved?
