I know it's kind of old, but this article had me laughing so hard. Some of the one liners in the article were so funny. Sorry to any this offends (not my intention). I think HB has some pretty good name selections in general though.

I chuckled at Blayde and his brother Nyfe, and Annyston joined by her brother Schwymmir.

I laughed out loud at "Annyston Joined by brother Schwymmir". Hahaha. There really are some crazy names out there, but I'm extremely traditional in my naming style.

lol! I actually think Chesney is kinda cute for a girl though. But I'm a huge Kenny Chesney fan, and I was going to name our LO Paisley if he was a girl. Ah well.
On a related note, I saw an Amber Alert on FB the other day for a baby 
But the distracting thing was, the little girl's name was A'Million.

@TheSwissWifeStyle: Chesney and Paisley could be cute for girls IMO. LOL at A'Million - so sad!!!

Haha! And my first thought when I read "Sharpay" in there was, "Does this mean the kids who were into High School Musical are now old enough to be having kids of their own?! I feel old." Lol

LOL. I love everything about this. Especially the "Jaydien" part. Those names are my pet peeve!!!

This is pure fact: "Harvest: You know what people will Harvest from your daughter? Her V-card."
I feel like these days people use their children's name as a way to show off their own uniqueness with no thought as to what it will be like for their poor child to go through life with a terrible name.

Very funny! But I actually know a Julissa who's at least 27 or so. She's originally from the Dominican - maybe that's a more common name in the area?

Hilarious! And so timely for me as we are right in the thick of deciding on names. Thanks for sharing!

I love this. I think the use of Ys are out of control. I didn't realize how bad it was getting with Zs and Xs!!! Also, there's a town nearby named Zebulon. Total hillbilly joint. Lol

@mediagirl: The ys, xs, and zs need to GO!
Did anyone else think the girl names were worse than the boy ones?
