Stephanie Meyer kicks Jane Austen's ass: "Apparently thanks to the Twilight vampire series, Isabella replaced Emma as the most popular baby name for girls in 2009. Among the boys, Jacob retained its 11-year-run at the top."
will Shecky never achieve respectability?
Those poor kids. I'm glad our little Albus and Crookshanks will never have to go through what they do.
there's something I really like about "Geraldine"
Yeah, this is hugely different than all those 40-year-olds named Jennifer because of Love Story.
and Cullen is the boys name that increased the most in popularity.
…because God forbid someone name their precious boychild something so pedestrian as Edward.
Whatever happened to naming daughters after aspirations? Like Hope, Chastity, and Charity?
Oh right, those are terrible names.
Aw I quite like Hope. Don't you dare call me an optimist though.
It's very 'Days of Our Lives.'
Right, not a bad thing.
I hate to be this guy, but it's Stephenie.
Sadly, I don't think Emma grabbed the top spot because of Jane Austen. Wasn't that the name of the Rachel-Ross spawn on Friends? *ducks thrown object* I SAW A SYNDICATED RERUN OF A BABY EPISODE, ALL RIGHT? Jesus.
