I remember it. It's one of two of those shows that stick out in my mind. The other one is the one with the walnuts.

Neither of my kids' names are on the lists: Heidi and Timothy.

My mother was a public health RN in a rural parish in Louisiana in the sixties. It was part of her job to visit mothers who had delivered babies at home. She checked the babies and helped the mothers to fill out the necessary forms to obtain a birth certificate. On one visit, she tried to talk a mother out of naming her infant girl "Placenta Privia" because the mom had heard the midwife mention the word. Now there is a woman in the world named just that, if she hasn't changed her name.

My great mother named her girls Virginia, Louise, Florida, Carolina and Georgia. She named her only son Tex.
