naming boy vs. after vs. father?

Is naming your son after your husband a trend that is dying out? My husband has such a common name Michael! And my father, brother, and a few cousins are also named Michael. We already have a daughter Izobel Donna (2) and am trying to talk my husband out of using Michael for our new addition! Debbie and Mike

Help! I love the name Guinevere, but I can't think of a really good brother and sister name for her. Since Guinevere is so empowering, I want the next names to be powerful as well. Thanks, Genie!
Baby Name Genie:
You seek the Holy Grail of names. Let me help you in your quest. The brother of fair Guinevere will fight on foot with swords aplenty, but on his horse he'll surely lance a lot. Name him Edward for a regal name. A sister could be dubbed Katherine if greatness is what you desire.
