Baby names

[pat]

This article reminded me strongly of the Bad Baby Names site. (Thanks to lizw) for the link.)

(Aryan? There are actually people who named their babies Aryan?)

I work with a man named Aryan.

Which is even more amusing when you meet him, as he is a dark-haire, dark-eyed middle eastern man.

I met a kid named Aryan recently... and he was African-American.

it's a problem :)

i have to say that i do have a penchant for unusual names. in my journal i've been contemplating changing my last name to "Rose" after my divorce. unfortunately, a lot of my favorite future little girl names would make my daughter sound like a stripper: Violet Rose, Jasmine Rose... *sigh*

my favorite boy's name though, Elijah, still sounds good with it though: Elijah Rose. or, just Eli Rose. (Eli after my maternal grandfather, and heck, the power to call down 42 bears to eat one's playground taunters never hurts either ;)

Maybe they were trying to name their kid "Aaron", but couldn't spell?

Ein Zotz!

that bad baby name site is so funny, I can't breathe and my co-workers think I've gone completely off the deep end!
