Nice to know that we picked what will be a fairly uncommon, but not unheard-of, name for some time. I named my son Emmet (inspired by the Sublime plugin, stuck with it because my fiancé liked it). His full name is Emmet Smith, and the only two burdens it looks like we stuck him with were 1) the name of a famous football player (he's apparently not bad, and won Dancing With The Stars, so we don't feel too guilty), and 2) easily misspelt. We didn't know about #1 until after he was born (probably should have Googled it first), and I didn't really consider #2 until just now. We were mostly concerned with the ability to make fun of the name (Emmet doesn't lend itself to any crude nicknames we could think of), that it sounded nice, and that it would be fairly unlikely to encounter another one in school. I met another Duncan once in high school; we had a short chat after class, and he went by his middle name (Robert) the rest of the year. If we have another child, we'll have to pick a name that synergizes well with Emmet (though hopefully that won't be for some time)!
