New Celeb Baby

Lincoln Bell Shepard. That's the name that Kristen Bell and Dax Shepard have given to their baby girl. Yep, a girl. I am surprised. I thought Kristen would have chosen a normal name. I HATE this practice of giving male names to girls. It's not cute and never will be.

I'm eagerly awaiting the social security's list of most popular baby names of 2013.  Do you think we will see any of these gems on the list?

Happy New Year!

I look forward to new baby name trends in 2013. We can't deny the power of pop culture. Baby Names are heavily influenced by what celebs name their kids. They're even influenced by fictional characters such as the name Cullen from Twilight. It was nowhere until the Twilight phenomenon put it on the map. I can't wait to see what Kimye names their spawn. It will no doubt influence what people name their kids. Kourtney named her son Mason in 2009. The name jumped from 34 to 2 in just two years. Will it be # 1 this year? Maybe. We will have to wait. The annual social security list of popular names doesn't come out until around March. Will people start naming their daughters Max? I sure hope not. Jessica Simpson named her daughter Maxwell Drew. That is my most hated female celeb baby name of the year. Jessica is pregnant again. Boy or girl? Doesn't seem to matter. The kid will have a male name. The most surprising celeb name of the year for me has to be Tennessee Toth. That's the name that Reese Witherspoon gave to her son. Her other kids are named Deacon and Ava. I think Cash/Kash will continue to grow for boys. Kim Zolciak-Bierman named her son Kash. Would be a good one for the Kimye baby, right?  Matthew McConaughey and Camila Alves named their son Livingston Alves McConaughey. That one was so odd compared to Levi and Vida. Apparently, Matthew likes the term "livin". Keep on living. I guess that's the nickname. Odd. Not that crazy though. I've seen worse.

Now for some horrible names from around the country:

Good or Bad?

Reese Witherspoon and her husband, Jim Toth welcome baby boy Tennessee James Toth.  I don't think it's the worst name I've ever heard. It's definitely not a classic. It's not what I expected at all from her given her other children's names. (Ava and Deacon) What do you think? Is it as bad as a Jermelanie? (Heard that gem on The Maury Show) Or Murphy for a girl? Heard that one at my local park recently.

Future stripper?

Sounds about right..


Breeze Beretta.

That's name Levi Johnston and his latest baby Mama gave to their daughter.  He named is daughter after a gun. Nice. Poor kid doesn't have many options in life with that name.

Terrible Twin Names

Girls. Milan and Paris. LOL! I bet their parents can't find either location on a map.

Jack

Jack is a lovely name. On it's on own. Or as a nickname for John. I prefer it as a nickname. However.. Jack can be a silly name depending on the last name it is paired with. Actress Anna Faris just had a baby boy and named him Jack. The Father is Chris Pratt. The kid is named Jack Pratt. I immediately thought of Jack Spratt. I wonder if they still teach nursery rhymes to kids these days.

Good and Bad

Kourtney Kardashian's baby is here! It's a girl! Penelope Scotland Disick. I was so shocked by Penelope that Scotland didn't register with me immediately. Scotland is gross.  Penelope is lovely. Not bad by Hollywood standards. I just hope they don't call her Scotland or Scottie.

Kourtney K.

Anyone looking forward to finding out what Kourtney Kardashian names baby number 2? Like it or not, the public seems to love naming their own children after celebrity babies. Kourtney names her son Mason and a couple of years later the name is ranked # 2 in the country. Mason was a name that was always popular but not to that extent. I think she will choose a similar name like Cooper or Murphy. Whatever name she chooses it will most likely see a surge in popularity. 

Change in popularity

This list is always interesting. It shows names that have dramatically grown or dropped in popularity.

Briella grew the most for girls. It jumped up 394 places in one year. Does anyone know where the name comes from? A TV show? A movie?

Brantley jumped 416 places in one year for a boy. There is a newly popular country singer named Brantley Gilbert. Maybe that's where they're getting it from.  I went to school with a girl named Brantley. Yuck!

Zaiden jumped 131 spots for boys.

Kamden jumped 109 for boys.

Bruce jumped up 62 spots. How random!

Nylah jumped up 149 spots for girls.

Raelynn jumped up 133 spots for girls.

Brynlee jumped 130 spots for girls.

Bristol jumped 126 spots for girls.

Charlee jumped 119 for girls.

Dylan jumped 82 spots for girls.

Presley jumped 47 spots for girls. There are various spellings so expect this one to become very popular.

Desiree fell 121 spots for girls. Yay!

Jamarion fell 112 spots for boys.

Most Popular Names!

The real list is finally out. I think the top 10 girls is better this time.  Madison is awful but the rest are nice.  I hate Jayden and Mason. Can't stand Aiden either.

Rank	Male name	Female name
1	Jacob	Sophia
2	Mason	Isabella
3	William	Emma
4	Jayden	Olivia
5	Noah	Ava
6	Michael	Emily
7	Ethan	Abigail
8	Alexander	Madison
9	Aiden	Mia
10	Daniel	Chloe

Jessica Simpson

I am so sick of celebrities giving male names to girls. It isn't cute. It isn't unique. I think she's the third celeb this year to give the name Max to her daughter. Max can be a nickname for Maxine, but Max or Maxwell on a girl is just gross. She claims Maxwell is a family name on the father's side.  What if the family name was Elizabeth or Esther? They certainly wouldn't give those names to a boy. I just don't understand it. The baby's full name is Maxwell Drew Johnson. Ugh. So feminine, right? 

TV Names

Shenik and Shenequa. Names of sisters on The Maury Show. Their brother is Richard. Why do the guys always get normal names? So sad. 


There was another woman on the show named Synthia. Way to ruin a nice name.

Baby Name Regrets

More parents are starting to regret the names they have chosen for their children. I think too many parents are going with names that they like but the names don't have personal meaning. People used to name their kids after family. Now they name their kids after reality TV stars. It might seem cool for the moment but a trendy name will die out. A name that has special meaning will always hold a special place in your heart.
