WTF Bump? (Baby Names)

Wow. So I clicked on Baby Names on the Bump, thinking I would browse a bit. Now I'm talking about the list the Bump has, not the board. Who comes up with that list? I had heard of maybe 1% of the ones I looked through. And I even filtered by origin to see if maybe it was just a lot of foreign names I wasn't familiar with. Nope, not the case. Who the helll is naming their baby Abcde?

Re: WTF Bump? (Baby Names)

  • Is that ab-cah-dah?  Because that's how I said it in my head.

    I went over there and found this and the nestie comments with their favorite names is cracking me up.

    Haha. Perhaps. I just remember how many times I looked for "Christie," and that's not even a weird spelling...just not the most popular. That child is going to feel taunted everytime he/she sees "JORdan."

  • Someone replied with "Konnor".  I know things could be worse but just spell it properly.

    Also... Prudance for a girl.  Why?

  • I'm sad that I saw Talon/Talan more than once.  Really?

    Also, I don't get the "Braxton" love.  I think of contractions every time I hear your child's name.

    I have a fb friend that named her first son Braxton. Her second son is Brenner. Real awesome names.

    My first thought when I read her name choice on fb was "I love breakfast for dinner!".

  • You know what name I hate/don't get? JADEN/JAYDEN. Ick!
