People these days just make names up. Give your youngin' a strong family tree name. Stop naming him Canyon and her Brooklyn.

I know guys named Courtney and Ashley and a girl named Ricky (real named Fredrica, but goes by Ricka or Ricky)

These things have been around.

If you like the name, fine.

I'm talking about this weak-assed shite:

quote:

“Millennials are an open-minded and accepting group, and they don’t want their children to feel pressured to conform to stereotypes that might be restrictive,” Linda Murray, BabyCenter’s editor in chief, writes in a statement sharing the 10 names rising fastest in popularity for both genders.

Don't get upset with me because you're terrible at naming your offspring.

Shouldn't you be taking George to dance camp right now?

Leslie agrees with this.



But honestly, I hate getting a letter from a Dana and having to try to analyze the handwriting to determine whether to respond with Mr. or Ms.

This is just an example of a brilliant idiot misrepresenting a half-baked personal hypothesis as fact to explain a trend.

Gender neutral names have been around for a long fricking time.

One of the hottest and coolest chicks I know is named "Finn". I can think of several people in their late 20's/early 30's with gender neutral names.

You shouldn't be arbitrarily forcing them into a static gender role anyway, Shitlord! #Triggered

They didn't want to know what the sex of the baby was going to be until the birth but said the kid's name was going to be Parker regardless of sex.
We mentioned possibly doing something like this. The family backlash was strong.

yeah, possibly picking a "gender neutral" name had nothing to doing with conforming to stereotypes and all that foolishness.

I also saw an article about millennials doing away with the corner office so everyone has the same office now. So dumb.
