I have to apologize for not picking up on this Wall Street Journal article about baby names while we were railing on about them last week.
This article is talking about the rarefied social strata of super-rich New Yorkers, not the trailer-park trash crowd. While the lower class kids are getting the crap names like "Nevaeh" (that's "Heaven" spell backwards, thank you, and Number 43 in the popularity list), these yuppie puppies are getting only the most fabulous and prestigious names possible thanks to a variety of baby name consultants.
Baby name consultants!! Kee-ripes! I am missing out on a perfect business opportunity here. I can offer a near 100% guarantee that if you let ME choose the name of your Precious Little Thing, they will have nothing but the BEST. NAME. EVAR. No Caden/Jayden/Hayden/Zaden nonsense, no sirree! No Madison/McKenzie/Hartford/New Haven place name for your daughter, I promise.
Plus, there's the whole unexplored sideline of being a pet naming consultant. All those commitment-phobic 20-somethings who can't bring themselves to reproduce but treat their pets like surrogate children would be all over a pet naming consulting business!
I'm going to be rich, RICH I tell you!
