I typically don't care what other people name their children, BUT every time I hear Neveah, I throw up in my mouth a little bit.

Huh, Laurel seems out of place here. It's a nature name, not an obvious place name.

It's been on 2 shows I watch lately (Arrow and Lying Game), and I dig it. But I dislike overused/popular names.

Bronx. And if you are going to use this, at least be proper and make your kid "Da Bronx last name" sheesh.

And when I lived in Chicago I cringed every time I met a little girl names Maddison or Addison. Usually the same family that has a dog named Wrigley. Those are major downtown streets and a stadium! Not names! No one in DC is naming their kid Farragut or Calvert or DuPont. SMH


You realized you just unleashed the next DC naming trend (after Larla becomes the new Madison).

I saw a funny cartoon once:

Tall skinny girl introduces her short pimply overweight cousin.

"Hi. I'm Paris Hilton, and this is my cousin, Florence Motel Six."

I think Piper is adorable and am pissed that Sarah Palin ruined it. Wouldn't have used it because I prefer the classics like Mary, Elizabeth, Caroline, but still disappointed to see the loss of such a cute name.


I hate it. It sounds like someone is trying to be cool amd failing.

Let's not do this. OK?


Hi, Brittany and Jaden's mom!


Not hardly. I just find the inherent nastiness of the OP to be offputting. Wonder if she's keyed someone's car recently.,
