THE BABY NAME GAME
THE BABY NAME GAME
NEW YORK (Wireless Flash) – It takes some expectant parents longer to name their baby than it does to conceive and give birth to the little whippersnapper. According to a poll of 17,000 parents in the September issue of Parenting magazine, 9 percent of parents say it took them every minute of the nine months and beyond to pick a name for their baby. Other bits from the baby naming game... 14 percent of parents made up a unique name they’d never heard before. 5 percent couldn’t decide on a name until the hospital forced them to make a choice. And 3 percent say they named their baby after their favorite celebrity.
