i haven't lived in the US for four years, and i didn't know many little kids back then, so i honestly would have no idea that it's common if not for the popularity charts on this site. though funnily enough,
Zoé is apparently in the Top 10 here in Hungary (though i don't know many little kids here either).
i'm on and off about how much i care about a name being too common. it's not as big a deal to me if it hasn't been common for ages, like
John or
Kate. also i'm not having kids for like, probably 7 years at least, so a lot could change.
and yeaaa it's a shame
Zoey is more common...would lead to more
Zoe's having to correct people too.
