My week at the beach was spent listening for names (well, there was ice cream and sand and a giant waterslide called the Hippo) but I didn’t hear much. There was a Veronica nicknamed Vera, but mostly it was the pleasant Top 100 assortment of Ethan, Dylan, Emma, Riley, Noah, Chloe, Caleb, Jackson, Zachary, Ellie, [...]

Sunday Summary: 7/25/10
First, Happy Birthday to me. Well, actually, my birthday is tomorrow. And so I’ll be doing something I haven’t done since shortly after I started writing Name of the Day posts in May 2008 – I’m choosing the names. All week. And I’m starting with my discarded given name tomorrow. But enough about that. The [...]

Confession: I love James Bond. Not the character, exactly – more the universe. Back in undergrad, I dissed the superspy to a (male) classmate, who insisted I’d never really seen the movies. He was right. One Bond marathon later, I was hooked. So when I researched the Baby Name of the Day post for Vesper, [...]
