Crazy. My name is number 1 again. For about the first 25 years of my life the only other Liam I had ever heard of is Liam Neeson.

Now whenever I go to a park or something I always hear some young mother shouting my name. Sadly it's not for me

I haven't seen it mentioned yet, but apparently using the last letter of 'N' has really taken off. So much that it is now 35% of boys names in the US.

While there's no Duramax this year, there is one Jixxer.


And with over 100 Rider/Ryder's registered the trend of naming your child after a football team continues down it's horiffic path.

15 Kyler's, not bad. Uncommon enough that he'll likely be the only one he knows, but not weird enough to be bullied over. lol

My personal favorites from the list:
Chrysogonus, Cooch, Dhyann, Dulee'O, Goodluck, Godbless, Hazard, Knowledge (and I am really hoping his twin brother) Powers, Neepin-Neepsy, but most of all, RAGNAR! I'm glad my son was born before Vikings hit the air, or that'd probably be his name too.
