This was a link at the bottom of another article I was reading but I thought I would open it up for a good laugh. I was surprised that I liked a few of the names listed

SPOILER: Click to show

{spoiler alert}
I thought Tate and Miri were really cute.

but there are still plenty of good ones to roll your eyes at

Not impressed with most of those. Really unimpressed with the ones that are just a different spelling. That's not really hipster.

I think they were reaching on a few of those, maybe they should have left it at the the top 20 hipster names. I thought Orly was super horrible and I remember some one getting flamed for considering Rogue on TD.

Remedy? Really?

Ok here's a better list, it has to be good because it's buzzfeed.

I feel like for a name to be hipster there needs to be more than just its in the 5,000s for popularity...apparently the author of that article does not agree.

Clementine, India and Everly? Those are my guesses as long as Kale wasn't on your list....

I think it would be Tallulah (I'm sure that's spelled wrong) instead of India.

I think we all know how I feel about names so I can't comment.
When they come out with the top 30 most boring names I'm sure my list will cover most of them.

[sarasansh]

aimeefarrahfowler and somethingcleverer Clementine was on my list! So were Xena and Zola. And actually it was more than 3, because Atticus and Holden were on the list too before we found out we were having a girl

[barefoot84]

I love geographical names. I would have loved India, Kenya, Brooklyn, Paris, Arusha... But my H didn't agree at all, and there were no "French" geographical names.

We did! First name is Margaret, and we'll call her Maggie. Although Robin refuses to call her anything but Margaret. We're still working out middle names (I want two, H wants one), but she'll definitely be Margaret Thistle (last name) at the very least.

What about Paris a la Paris Hilton? A good, wholesome name.

[aimeefarrahfowler]

sarasansh I can't remember if you told us that already, but I love Margaret/Maggie! Maggie was on my short list of names for a girl.

Daniel Tiger had nothing to do with this, right? 

I KID, I KID!!

[MissMusic]

What the shit are these names?! Huntly?! Like, Hunter and Ashley? Who makes this shit up?!

Payden, because Peyton is so passe.
Rogue, because X-Men. Also, "Maverick" is overdone.
Odyn, because we want to sound like we know Norse mythology and Y is a cool letter.
Klynn, because we were drunk.
Pike, because we needed something that wasn't so pedestrian as Mike.
Teigen, because vowels.
Orly, because we said "oh really?" when we discovered the pregnancy, but you can't say it like that online. You have to say ORLY?
Woodson, because why not.
Ansen, because we miss Hanson but don't want to be too obvious.
Fenton, because we want our kid to sound like a duck. We do.
Saffron, because its spicy. Or, we miss Firefly.

Eff this list, it just made me irrationally angry.

Haha, you kid, but you're right! Margaret came on our radar in the first place because as soon as we told Robin he was going to have a baby sister he started calling her "baby Margaret!" and refused to stop. At least his name isn't Daniel...

[vanessalc]

I like a lot of those names. I guess I'm a hipster * hangs head in shame *

[xanthepants]

vanessalc, I do too. Actually of that second list I'd say I have friends with kids with about 1/3 of those names....I'm to old to be a hipster too. Weird.

[sarasansh]

xanthepants That's just what the hipsters want you to think.
