Is this name too popular? My husband and I love this name- it sounds so sweet and gentle. What do you think?

I love, love, love Hannah but it is extremely popular, at least here on the east coast.
This year in my 4 year old preschool class I have 2 Hannah's. There is one a year older and 2 Hannah's in the 3 year old room. I know 3 sets of Hannah and Hailey twins all under the age of 6.
I am 27 and I graduated with Hannah's so you'll definitely find some old and some young.
It is a very pretty name and if you don't mind it being popular then go for it. Last year I had two Hailey's and one went by Hailey S. and it has stuck now - she is still Hailey S even though she is the only one.
Good Luck. SD

Seriously, over the past 5 years I have had 3 different friends, 2 co-workers and 4 cousins all use Hannah Grace for their children! (not exaggerating!) Not only are so many people using it but it sounds a little homely. Just remember it may be kindof cute now, but babies grow up to be women. And there was a recent article saying that your name correlates with your success. Also, I would hate for her to be in school and have other girls in class with the same name.
If you love it that much use it but there are so many other names out there that are sweet and gentle and not as trendy.
Congratulations!

It is a popular name but nothing to worry about because its your choice and your daughter if that is who this name is for will be unique. I love it! It is sweet and gentle, I have a sister named Clara Grace. I love the middle name Grace, the first name Hannah is cool too!

Yeah, it's a little too popular for me as I know a couple of Hannah/Anna Graces, but I agree that it does sound really sweet. The only problem I see is (aside from its popularity) that Hannah and Grace both mean 'grace', so it's a little weird in that way, know what I mean? I also kind of like Hannah Faith. It sounds a lot like Hannah Grace and Faith is also a virtue name, and that way both names wouldn't have the same meaning. I hope all of that made sense =)

My daughters name is Hannah Gaell, was going to go with Grace, but took a family name instead. The year she was born (2001) it was the #1 most popular name. However, there is not 1 Hannah in her kindergarten class. There are 3 other Grace's though....even in preschool she was always the only Hannah. So obviously, I love the name....

I also really like this name. I think that you might want to change it to Grace Hannah, I know it does not really sound that good, but it would be much better and less popular!

It is popular in some areas. I live in Western NC and there aren't a lot of people with that name. I think it is a great name. If you really like it go for it. It is a beautiful name.

Love it. I do not think it is too popular. I only know a few Hannahs. I would use it!

It is popular but if you guys like it then you should use it. You could make her have first two names and or two middle names. Hannah Grace something Lastname.
