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?)
Spike: Heard what happened up top, offing your dad and all. Don't know if you know this, but, uh…I killed my mum. Actually, I'd already killed her, and then she tried to shag me, so I had to-- Wesley: Thank you. I'm…very comforted.

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....

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."

When I was in school it was all Amys, Susans, and Karens.
I'm a little dubious about "Jayden" being the second most popular boy's name, actually.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil
Kathy/Cathy was a big name for those of us born in 1966. At every school I went to, there was always a batch of us in the same grade. In the same way, my sister's year (1964) was a big one for Christine/Kristine (she's Kristine).
