The top 10's are ok I guess. A few weird ones in there.

My oldest boy's name comes in at #14 but myself and the rest of the family aren't in the top 50.

the mum must have lived a sheltered life to not know Levi is associated with jeans.

 

[Catfish Alley]

It's a fairly common name though and it's not really a derogatory thing.

 

[Gough]

First thought I had was a Billy Bragg song, or Carlton's uniquely talented full forward who can't kick.

 

[drd23]

Wow that mum is way too sensitive and pretty damn clueless if she couldn't figure out that the name Levi has a connection to jeans.

What's next, she didn't realise it is a Hebrew name?

 

[Keys]

Levi, your genes are ****ed

 

[JackOutback]

Levi, your genes are ******

Now that's a better insult. Geez, she's a sensitive soul if she's hurt by people referencing whether Levi is wearing jeans.

As for the top 50 names, both my kids have fairly traditional names and neither make the list.

I feel good not seeing my kids name, my name or my wife's name in the top 50s
See plenty of kids from kinder and a cousin or two or friends kids in there though

My daughter only scraped in to the lower reaches of the list, which surprised me but I'm ok with that

No love for Darren

 

[Gough]

No love for Darren

You don't meet too many Darrens born after the early 80s, it's disappeared as name.

Darren Gough does ok. Thought he might have inspired some

 

[Catfish Alley]

Was happy to see a kid with my name at my boys gym class today. Never see it anymore despite it being a pretty traditional name
