FDLReporter writes about Wismoms.com, Celebrities and Unusual Baby Names. Read Article Here.

Here’s an article about parents trying to pick perfect baby names. The article mentions that a current popular name for baby boys is Jayden. I wonder if that has anything to do with Britney Spears naming one of her sons Jayden James.

Will Smith and Jada Pinkett-Smith also have a son named Jaden. Jayden (Jaden) is a pretty cool name; I like it.

Welt.de reports the more families are taking their children on cruises to the Caribbean.

The article states that one of the reasons families are opting for the Caribbean – as opposed to somewhere like the Mediterranean – is because of wanting to cut down on spending.

I think it’s great that families are still finding a way to enjoy life and travel, even with the not-so-great financial times many are having. And it’s nice to see parents spending time with their children and taking them somewhere fun and exciting.

The Caribbean seems like an aweseom place to visit. But I’d like to do more than visit; I’d love to own a home in Barbados someday!

A good story from Sioux City Journal about a woman who named her baby Molly, after the wife of her favorite customer. The article also mentions popular baby names and parents giving their babies distinctive and unique names. And what goes through their minds / the motivation for giving their child unique baby names.

I think unique baby names are fine, just as long as they aren’t too weird! )
And some unique names are actually quite pretty. For instance, the name Nevaeh is really pretty. Well, at least in my opinion.

So, I think it’s cool to be creative with baby names, but again, just nothing too weird!
