      Ayden, Brayden, Kayden, Bobayden… Can probably generalize this to “unique” spellings like Kayleygh, Kyrsrtyn, etc.

      Waiting for Ruth to be popular again. No one makes pies like Ruth.

        I sincerely hope those dumbass “unique” spellings go away.

          Some of them might become the new normal spelling, just as with so many other names and wyrds

      Assuming the GoT babies didn’t change their names. Imagine having a name that others yourself from everyone else and it comes from a fake culture in a fake world.

        All name are made up. Besides this is nothing new, there’s a lot of media that inspires baby names. I have s friend who’s kids are all named after Inception characters.
