As for Ella the Mad's comment
ritten by Ella the mad, March 17, 2008
My name is ella and im 23. I really pisses me off that all these kids now have my name. I realise that i wasnt the first person to be called ella but it still anoys me because i used to enjoy having a not so common name.
You should be proud and flattered that so many people like your name and want to use it for their children.. That would quality would suit your name more than getting mad about it !!!!!!!!

As for Ella the mad, the name is still not as common as Jennifer and Jason were for my generation. My sister's name is Jennifer, and my brother-in-law's name is Jason. If I had to go through what they have with their very common names, then I could understand being mad over a name. Ella's still not that common, even if it was one of the top baby names for 2002. Sympathizing with the Jennifers and Jasons, I wanted uncommon names for my kids. When I first decided on the name Morgan, it was very uncommon. However, by the time my daughter was born in 98 I was hearing the name everywhere. I loved the name too much to give it up, but worried about it being too common. My fears were unnecessary, she's only had to share her name with two other students in the entire school. My Ella's 7 and has yet to meet another Ella in real life, but she's thrilled when she hears her name in movies. "Ella Enchanted" was one of her favorites for the longest time. Now she enjoys being called "Ella-Bella" since her big sister loves Twilight.

when i was younger my name was quite uncommon too. And now it has started becoming rather popular. Rather than getting uptight about it, it actually makes me happy because its such a beautiful name.
