What do these names have in common, aside from their six letters? They are all names of babies born on New Year’s Day in hospitals across the country.Each year while revelers ring in the New Year, in hospitals and birthing centers and in the back seats of cabs there is a race to be give birth close to the stroke of midnight and be named the state’s New Year’s Baby. In their own holiday tradition, Namecandy.com digs through public records and compiles a list of the names of the New Year’s babes as a way of trendspotting baby names for the coming year.So what can we tell about the future of baby names in 2012 from this bumper crop of New Year’s babies? One thing is clear, K names are going to be very popular. In the results from the 47 states (Maryland,[url=http://www.ocosound.com/]Christian Louboutin Discount[/url], Minnesota and New Jersey didn’t report), there are six babies with names starting with the letter K, ranging from Kyren to Kristiana to Kay’lyn to Khloe. One guess is that the fascination with K names stems from the far-ranging influence of the Kardashian family. Another popular trend in 2012 will be A names. The list of New Year’s babies includes seven A names, including two Aubreys, an Akier, an Anya, and an Adrian.While the Social Security Administration lists Isabella and Jacob as the most popular names of 2010, neither made this list. Although, Isabella’s variant,http://www.ocosound.com/, Bella, does make an appearance thanks to the continued popularity of a little series called Twilight.) It is clear that American parents are increasingly willing and perhaps eager to give their children creative monikers. For every Michael Joseph or Grace Kathleen on the list, there’s a Daytona Jaymes and a Shekinah Rain Shanice. You can’t blame parents for wanting to give their kids interesting handles. Washington State’s Hanna Rose may as well be named Plain Jane when she’s compared to Nevada’s Envy Essence-Faye.Good luck,[url=http://www.ocosound.com/]Cheap Christian Louboutin Shoes[/url], 2012 babies! We can’t wait to see what you name your kids.MORE: What’s in a (Baby) Name? 2011′s Most Popular MonikersL'Chaim, Tony! Does The Sopranos Know from Jewishness?With the long-awaited return of The Sopranos looming Sunday night, you may already feel you’ve read every possible angle on the show’s cultural significance. Not this one, I’ll bet. The Jewish news-and-culture paper The Forward is featuring a set of essays looking at Jewish themes, stereotypes and tributes in The Sopranos and six other HBO shows. (For a full list of the essays, click here and scroll down.) The piece on The Sopranos makes some obvious references–Jewish Soprano-family associate "Hesh" Rabkin,[url=http://www.ocosound.com/]Christian Louboutin Sale[/url], for instance–but it goes on to argue that its philosemitism is best expressed through its use of a largely Jewish contribution to human thought: psychiatry. The irony, it notes, is that Tony explores "a quintessentially Jewish form of soul-searching"–from Sigmund Freud to Woody Allen–with the assistance of a fellow Italian, Dr. Jennifer Melfi. Other standout pieces include a dissection of Entourage’s Ari Gold as a modern Sammy Glick figure and, of course, a look at Larry David’s ambivalent but omnipresent take on Jewishness in Curb Your Enthusiasm, in which, author Michael Green says, David turns L.A. into a modern-day shtetl: "A place where, as David draws it, everyone knows everyone. Where all are related (if by business instead of blood). Where the one person you’re hoping to avoid will no doubt be seated at the table right next to you at L.A. Farm."After The Sopranos Sunday, HBO debuts the highly promising Big Love, about a family of fundamentalist-Christian polygamists in Utah. It may take a little longer to find the Jewishness in that one.L&O, RIP?Chung-chung! Is that a body? |
