While there are plenty of beautiful, unusual names out there for babies, there are also the more traditional names and, of course, the most popular. If you're looking to name your baby something classic or trendy but don't want them to have the same exact name as every other baby on the block, consider taking one of the most popular names and altering the spelling to jazz it up a bit.
