Little Sparrow

To the woman who commented that Braylee is unique.. It's not. I've seen it spelled Braylee, Braylie, Brayli, Braelee etc

Now, to the big news of the day..

Nicole Richie and Joel Madden have named their son Sparrow James Midnight Madden. Does anyone like Sparrow? I think it's horrible. A sparrow is a weak little bird. And the sister is named Harlow. I'm sensing a trend. Suggestions for a sibling: Bow, Glow, Afterglow, Arrow, Bungalow, Elbow, Hollow, Marshmallow, Wheelbarrow, and my favorite.. Shallow.

Y's the thing..

Almost every bad name in this post contains the letter "y". That letter seems to be the go to letter for people with bad taste. Check out these ugly names..

Girls with boy names

People always ask me why I have a name like Dylan or Taylor on this blog. If you see a name like this that appears to be normal, it was probably a girl's name. I can't even begin to describe how much I hate when girls are given male names. I see nothing wrong with a name like Dylan or Taylor for a boy, but not for girls. People always give lame excuses as to why they want to name their daughter Carson or James. (Yes, people are naming girls James these days) Common excuses are: It's a "family" name. It sounds "girly" to me. Surnames are "unisex". A big LMAO goes out to that one. (FYI, surnames are male and many have male meanings like son of. There are exceptions like Jane but that's another story) Another common excuse that people give is that they want their daughter to have a unique name. Hello? If boys and girls have the same name it's actually more popular than using an uncommon female name like Iris or Frances. Some women claim that they would use a "unisex" or female name on a boy or a girl but they never do. They would name their daughter Michael in a second but they would never name their son Madison. And my personal favorite.. "I want my daughter to have a strong name." AHHHHHHHHH!!!!!! The feminist inside of me dies a little every time I hear that line. There are so many beautiful, strong, FEMALE names out there. There is no need to give your daughters male names. If you truly want your daughter to have a unique and strong name, go with an underused female name like Veronica, Portia, Matilda, or even Anne. Your daughter will not be one of several boys and girls with the same name. She will most likely be the only little Sylvia in her entire school. She will have a name that is timeless. She will not be stuck wearing an outdated name for her entire life. If you absolutely must call your daughter Joey, Charlie, Sam or Alex. Name her Josephine, Charlotte, Samantha or Alexandra. You can still use the nicknames and you daughter will have a dignified, feminine name that will never embarrass her.
