If any of you will become a parent in future, you will come to know one of the hardest decisions in life is to come up with suitable name. You have to consider a shit ton of factors such as; the name must not be funny or embarrassing; the name must be meaningful and nice sounding etc.

And just when you think you got a good name, you spouse might probably dislike it and you have to start thinking all over again. So yea, it can really be troublesome. So, some parents just stick to common names for their kids. But because of this, such names become so overused to the point where parents don’t like to use them anymore because they are like almost everywhere.

So, if you want to name your kid in future and you want an overused name, steer clear of the names below. And for those people out there whose names are on this list, well too bad! Your name is freaking overused!
