I'm vaguely irritated by the "boys names ending in N" trend that seems to have cropped up - our goal was never to give D a name that our special little snowflake would have all to himself, but we'd decided years ago that our first child would be named Dylan, and now we look like sheep. We're not sheep! Just ahead of the curve!
Jimmy Olsen jokes're pretty much gonna be lost on you, huh?

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Preach it - that's why Emma got changed to Emeline around week 38.

Because books.
I'm amazed that Amy isn't on the girls' list at all. Wow. We are so out of fashion, Aims!
And Ben isn't on there in any form. Huh. Sarah is #20, but with an H.

We are very 70's.

Well it's not an "official" list - their numbers are from Babycenter members, not census data. (Trendy or not, I seriously doubt there were more Aidens born in 2008 than Michaels, you know?)

We are.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I love the kid name in an xkcd comic... something something DROP TABLE STUDENTS;

Sure, but if you combine the Aidens with the Bradens and the Jadens and the Cadens....

Now tagless for your comfort.
I always look forward to SS's baby names list. I hope Olivia will drop in popularity because I went to school with six Lisas so I know how that feels.
There's a woman at the gym who spelled her daughter's name "Alyvia."
