Most Unusual Baby Names of 2012 by Lookmanade(m): 4:44pm On Dec 14, 2012 |
Is it that parent are trying to be unique in naming their child? It is somewhat surprising seeing parent giving their children the kind of name that one can easily dissociate him or herself from such person. In year 2011, a name his child “Facebook” and it goes viral, people were wondering why he should give his child such name and he replied to everyone that care that, Facebook help them a lot during that year that led to unseating of their country president and the whole Arab benefited from Facebook social media because, it help them to spread the message to the world, what they are experiencing in the hand of their leader then. Around September too, one woman named her child "HASHTAG" something that is associated with searching on twitter. Here are a few of the highlights from Baby Center's very strange list: Girls: Fashion-conscious: Couture, Fedora Rolling Stones fans: Jagger Altered names: Joshitha J-names: J'adore, Jazzy, Jeevika, Juju, Jury Aspirational: Ace, Admire, Excel, Monalisa, Oasis, Queenie Places: Americus, California, Zealand Just plain weird: Inny, Yoga Boys: Aspirational: Bond, Casanova, Jedi, Legacy, Popeye, Rogue, Elite Nirvana fans: Cobain Altered names: Devid, Donathan, Villem, Xenon, Zaniel Religious: Exodus, Savior Dad picked this: Espn, Burger, Ball Just plain weird: Cello, Drifter, Four, Goodluck, Google, Haven'T, Hippo, HToo, Pate "Pate"? Seriously? "These parents value creativity and nonconformity above other attributes in a name. Their goal is to come up with a name that is truly unique. By definition, they don't want to fit in. They want their children to be individuals who stand out from the crowd," Baby Center's Global Editor in Chief Linda J. Murray told Yahoo! Shine. "While we've all cringed at a baby name here and there, the good news is that most children end up liking their names. Less than 10 percent of adults want to change their name."

[left][/left]still cherish some old school names like; Uloaku, Agbomma, Udochi, ihekerenma, Ihedinma.... Africans still show how colonised they are by bearing foreign names. Glad I was given a core traditional name. That will do me. |
