Baby Name of the Day: Sloane
Sometimes it takes a while for a name to catch on. We first heard this one in the 80s, but could 201o be her year? Thanks to Christy for suggesting one of the names from her list as our Baby Name of the Day: Sloane. Share this: Email StumbleUpon Digg Reddit Print Facebook Press This

Sunday Summary: 7/11/10
Just when you think every name has been imagined, every option exhausted, pop culture surprises us. First, Cecily von Ziegesar’s novel Cum Laude tackles the lives of privileged college students (as opposed to the privileged high school students in her Gossip Girl franchise.) One of the main characters is a girl called Shipley, and a [...]

Sunday Summary: 4/18/10
After two plus years in our urban(esque) rowhome, we’re out of excuses for not having paint on our walls. My challenge is to choose based on the actual color rather than my enthusiasm for having walls called Tate Olive. Which really could be a baby name, or possibly a sibset.

I doubt we’ll ever have a third child. There are dozens of practical reasons. And one reason that’s trivial for him, dead serious for me: we could never agree on a name. We do have a few candidates, scraps from the cutting room floor. I’ve mentioned them in comments from time to time, but I [...]

Miss World 2009
If you happened to be channel surfing early Saturday morning (on the East Coast of the US, anyhow), you might’ve caught Miss World 2009, broadcast live from South Africa. Or was that just me? I’m not into beauty pageants, but I stopped and watched, eager to hear contestants’ names. Except they kept referring to them [...]
