Baby names
It’s common to name babies after family members or to use names indicative of heritage. The easier way to choose a name is by consulting a list of baby names. But there are many other ways, too. “The bizarre star baby names headlined in the media are, of course, an aberration – many more celebrities will call their children Jack, Charles or James,” says Rosenkrantz. “In addition, the media also tries to project even conventional names as weird, such as Julia Roberts’ daughter Hazel or Gwyneth Paltrow’s son Moses. For regular folks, so much depends on where and how a child will be growing up. If she’s going to school in New York’s East Village or Malibu, Calif., no problem. Her classmates may well be named Aqua and Cerulean. But in most communities, I’d say, ‘Don’t try this at home.’”
