Baby Names - You're kidding Right???

[Layla Miller]

Not surprised by Cosette, given the movie just came out a few months ago.  I'd expect to see some Eponines before too long, too.

Back to the name I posted yesterday, Baleigh. I read that as Bali, like the Indonesian island.

March's baby names from my local hospital:


Cosette

Ryder is once again the most popular boy name here.  There were some lovely gems like Eleanor and Elias, I'd say only about 25% of them made me roll my eyes.

What's so bad with Cosette?  Aside from it being one of the main characters of Les Miz, it's been a name for a long time, just rather under-used.

She'll probably grow up to be some bourgeois two a penny thing

Breonia

Breonia

That name is bad enough (at least to me) and close enough to my own that I'm embarrassed by it's mere existence.

"The Irish name Breonia means is a form of Breona, which is a form of Briana, which means "strong, virtuous, and honorable." This is a feminine form of the name Brian." http://www.chacha.com/question/what-is-the-name-breonia-mean

And I'm sure a bunch of famous, historically significant, people have been named that. Still looks like something I would have planned to name my own country when I was seven.
