Popular Baby Names List: More ways to ruin your child’s life
Monday, July 19, 2010 at 11:30AM So everyone around me knows I’m a Supernatural fan. It’s one of the best (read: awesomely bad) shows out there right now and I can’t wait until the Season Six premiere.
But no matter how much I like the show, I don’t think I’d ever name my child after one of the characters- no matter how sexycool he is. Apparently though, I am in the minority since according to the baby name trend report put out by BabyNameWizard.com, Castiel is gaining ground as the most popular boy’s name for 2010.
Yes, that’s right. I said Castiel. As in, the angel of Thursday. As in, a character on Supernatural.
For more laughs, check out the lists for girls and boys below. At a quick glance, I see names that refer to a True Blood character, a car brand, a country singer, a race of ten-foot tall blue people from Pandora, a pretentious clothing brand, and the half octopus/half-mermaid witch who stole Ariel’s voice in The Little Mermaid.
Also, wasn’t Dashiell one of Santa’s reindeer?

Name your children whatever you want to name them. No matter what, other children on the playground will find some way to mock even the most normal of names. May I suggest enrolling your child in karate lessons now?

Those are all really good, but I've always liked the idea of naming children after types of food. Given this, my next child will either be named Bullion or Garbanzo.
