baby names!

[flea]

Today's the day the Social Security baby name lists for 2008 come out (they deliberately release them for mother's day, awww.) http://www.ssa.gov/OACT/babynames/

This year's top 10 are hardly surprising, although Emma has knocked Emily out of the #1 spot for girls:
1 Jacob Emma
2 Michael Isabella
3 Ethan Emily
4 Joshua Madison
5 Daniel Ava
6 Alexander Olivia
7 Anthony Sophia
8 William Abigail
9 Christopher Elizabeth
10 Matthew Chloe

Addison is still #12 for girls (was #11 last year) and my possibly least favorite name ever, Jayden, is #11 for boys. (And Brayden is #50. Why, people, why. Brayden is what a donkey does.)

Casper's name is up to #54 (was #88 the year we named her, was #161 10 years ago).
Dillo's name is still dropping, down to #183.
My name peaked last year and is down to #348.
mr. flea's name is, well, #2. His middle name, though, is #691 and falling.

How 'bout you?

So, the boy's name would have been Zev - very Hebrew. My DH tried to take everything Anglo off the table, despite the fact that I like to remind him his daughter is a Mayflower descendant x3.
