Parents, this is why we can’t have nice things.
As someone who’s grown up with a unique name, I’m not on the whole “I want the most unique baby name in the whole world” train. (While we’re on names, check out these newcomers kicking the classics out of the charts.)
I’ve heard from the Kate’s of the world and the Sarah’s, how annoying it is to be in a class full of five others with your name. How they wished that they would’ve been the only one of their kind with their name.
Well, from someone who was always the only one with her name, it’s not as lovely as you might think.

These are the 12 baby names that I am judging parents for choosing for their babies.
