    other notes:

    "Jorge" was the 100th most popular name in 2002 (thought of Trader_Jorge for some reason)

    "Branson", the name my wife wants to give our kid if we ever have a son, was 993rd

    "Kobe" first made the top 1000 in 1997 at #567 (coincidentally, Kobe Bryant's second year in the league) and has risen to #241 in 2002

    Neither "Bort" or "Bart" has been in the top 1000 since 1991...

    Interestingly enough, the most popular name in Texas in 2002 was "Jose". Jose was third in California...

    ...definitely a sign of things to come...

    With a couple of rather popular NBA players changing their names (or monikers)...I'm suprised Aristotle and Orgasm haven't peeked into the top 1000.:D

    A teacher of mine had her daughter on May 1. She named her 'Kakielekea.' Her husband's name is Keoni so it's just some Hawaiian thing.

    I guess Jack and Charles are not very popular nowadays. That is what we are naming our child when he is born later this summer. Of course, Jack and Charles do not really go together, so I plan on calling him J.C. :)

    That's what I'm saying...I told her that if she INSISTS on naming a kid after a city in Missouri, there are plenty of better options like Bernie, Cabool, Ethel, or Hannibal

    Cuttino did not make the list. That means he's cool.

    At least the Katelyn, Austin, Taylor, Tyler, phase looks over. I always thought any kid named Austin or Katelyn should be rounded up and somehow be disposed of.

    How come there are all these kids named after Texas cities (Dallas, Tyler, Austin) but there are no "Houstons". If I had a kid I would really think about naming him Houston. Or maybe Pasadena.

    Naming your kid Pasadena would be most Non-Yeee.
