“Ridiculous baby names used to be left to celebrities. Most of us know famous people can get away with things we mere mortals can’t (just ask anyone who’s ever gotten a DUI), but somehow we’ve lost our way. People have decided that we should all be able to compete for most original and give our children names that are as dumb as they are SEO friendly. No matter how much SF might start to feel like SFlandia, we don’t have to succumb to trendiness and prove the haters right with contrived eclectic antics.”
