I will say, I don’t like modern kids’ names; last names become first names and such. These sound like SoCal names.

My kid was born in SoCal, and he is Eric... SoCal?

[bigdaddy45]

Me neither. Darn modern names. Of course, my teenage daughters Maude, Ethel and Beulah have a different opinion than their old man.

Yep, I don’t get it either. Where do they come up with odd names for their kids???

And why do they choose to give them such unusual out of the ordinary names? What’s the point??

Congrats to the Palin family. I'm very happy for them and wish them the best.

I completely share your disdain for the modern trend in naming kids! My niece named her daughter Majesty! Majesty!!! I can't think of a more stupid or ghetto-fied name for a beautiful little girl. I refuse to call her that and have called her Maggie from day one and always will.

I noticed this too everyone is either a Cooper or a Madison, my name is Gemma but its a very old fashioned name.

Here in the south it has been going on for a LONG time. It took me a while to get used to it. One key difference, they use real family surnames for first names in many cases.

I think they sound more like So Co names.

People expected some oddities from me when I announced the pregnancy... I told everyone it would be “the judge”.

She was born and given Elizabeth Catherine. People, to this day, stop the conversation to thank me for that decision.

“These sound like SoCal names.”

No they don’t. SoCal names are like Gomez, Catarino, Cesar, Mohammed.
