Want to waste some time? Here's a great site: The US Social Security's Top 1000 Baby Names from 2000 to 2007 Some of my "favorites?"
154. Gage- And the next one will be named Sprocket!
241. Chance - This is name that says "I should have gotten a dog"
791. Aryan - What??
824. Maxim - Naming your kid after a magazine?
My favorite name for a boy, Levin, which Aaron doesn't like because he says its too obscure didn't make the top 1000. But his favorite name for a girl, Petra, which I don't really like didn't make the top 1000 either. Ha!
And since everyone is asking, the names on our short list:
Reuben
Abraham
Peter
Levin

Looks like a good selection to choose from.
Can you write Levin phonetically? Is it pronounced like leaven as in leavened bread? Just curious. I'm trying to figure it out. Peter was on my short-ish list. Nice names!
I like Abraham and Levin
Not that it even matters, but I like the names Reuben and Peter.
I love all those names! Looking forward to meeting the guy that goes with one of them, or another name, if that occurs too.
kt,
i just saw a clip on cnn that a new dad named his baby daughter "sarah mccain palin" without consulting his wife on the matter. be grateful you're having a boy...that way you don't have to worry about aaron pulling something like that! although he could try something like john palin mccain. watch out!
Someone in our ward just named their baby Chance. I thought it was...interesting. You guys have some good options!
Who are the people who are naming their kids "Aryan"??? Skinheads, I presume?
My sister's rule is that none of her kids' names can be on those lists. We talk often about how different she and I are, and that is just one of the ways...my kids will always have names that people have heard before. I like your list. We are thinking pink this time around so that has its challenges...there are just so many girl names that I don't like as much so I feel so picky. Luckily I still have 4.5 months to go. :) Good luck with your decision! And thank you for not picking Aryan. Yikes!
