Baby names

It's hard to search for an original, but normal name I think, not that I'd have experience before. Usually I come up with outrageous things like Ignaz or Lucifer.

The Baby Name Wizard is a tool that compiles the ranks of baby names up to 2004, so you can see trends of name popularity. Apparently, the latest thing is in 18th and 19th century names.

So maybe to be unique but not a trend whore you can name your daughter Ethel or your son Lewis, names that are respectable but has been long past their prime.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Old-fashioned names are fun! Gives them a character that doesn't say "I'm cool because I'm current".

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Then, if I have a girl, she'll be named Nokia.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Zelda was a known name well before the video game ever existed. Unfortunately, most people nowadays associate the name with the princess and not some exotic-sounding name some women in the early 20th century were named with.

Who do you think F. Scott Fitzgerald married?

Well I can't think of much boy names that are neat without being overly flamboyant.

Rexford Maxis
Orbison Villet

Wrote any fantasy novels lately?

Geez, those are a bit too out there in terms of names. You may get away with it if you are part of the aristocracy. Otherwise, those are just impractical.

Even Frank Zappa had names chosen for his children that are a bit more palatable.

Orbison though, is a cool concept. Naming children after rock/country singers should be interesting. Imagine a boy named "Cash Lovett _____"

I was speaking idiomatically.
