How Do You Handle Someone "Stealing" Your Baby Name?

Naming your child is no walk in the park. You need to find something you won't ever get sick of, make it unique to your kid and chances are there's someone else in the picture that has to agree with you. A lot of us start thinking about what we want to name our kids way in advance (it's just fun!), so perhaps we already have a pretty good idea of our favorite names. But beware sharing your top picks with others -- if they end up reproducing before you, your baby name could be in danger of theft. Remember how Rachel "stole" Monica's favorite name when she had Emma? Yeah, not cool.
