Feelings on your own name if popular?

💗

If you grew up with a popular name, meaning that you had to also use your last initial frequently, how did you feel about it? Did you care? Did you like having a popular name?

I grew up with a fairly unique name at the time and it always made me feel like a bit of an outsider. At the same time, I don’t want to give my child a name if they’re going to hate being one of 20 other people with the same name.
