Starbaby News: Welcome Mason Dash

December 14, 2009 By appellationmountain Leave a Comment

With all the chatter about what Kendra and Kourtney were going to name their babies, I’ll admit that I tuned out long ago.

Except that I could’ve sworn Kourtney said she was sticking to the classics.

    It says “WeCLome” in your title. Sorry. I have an editor’s brain.

    I’m don’t mind Mason, but I find it incredibly boring and predictable.
    I live in an area where a lot of people work in the stone and/or quarrying industries (all of those granite counter-tops have to come from somewhere.) Probably because of this, Mason is the #2 baby name (Carter is # 1.)

    I’m not a fan. To me, the name sounds like part of a sentence in which either the combo mason (adjective) dash (noun) or mason (noun) and dash (verb) work.

      My issue with Mason has always been that he reminds me of maison – house in French. I know he isn’t in any way related, and yet, it is still what my eye sees.

        Maybe they are related. A mason is someone who works with stone, right?

    Thank goodness! I don’t care for the name Mason, but I love the style of the name. Mason Dash Disick sounds great.
    I was expecting something like Khlover or Kherrington. I’m so relieved, haha

    Um…Dash? Okay-y-y-y. Mason is all right, though it’s in the Chance, Chase, Brady camp for me. It’s not the worst offender, but I wouldn’t ever use it.

    Anyway, congrats to them!

      I’m not about Dash myself, but I do like that they used part of mom’s last name. I have friends who did this, taking the “Bauer” out of her four-syllable German surname to make an appealing middle for their son.

      And I quite like Dashiell, though Arthur tells me that unless I give birth to a detective novelist, I can’t use it. I think that’s a no. 🙂

    I’m with Caroline. I think I’d appreciate Dash more if it wasn’t already used as the name for their boutique, for the same reasons… Just seems eh. Mason Robert would have been nicer I think

      THAT’S RIGHT! I forgot about the boutique. I haven’t been keeping up with the Kardashians lately …

    I find Mason Dash an appealing combo. I’m not a fan of Mason at all and Dash is okay, but Mason Dash has a nice ring to it. Dash reminds me of The Incredibles, though.

    Except that they already borrowed the ‘Dash’ for their clothing boutique.
