Below are the top 10 baby names for boys and girls for 2011.
I thought it would be fun to make a Top 10 List of Little-Used Baby Names. This doesn't mean these are bad names or ugly names. I like several of these names and we named our cat one of the names below. These are just names that people don't name little babies anymore. Personally, I would avoid both the little-used and popular baby lists in actually naming a baby.
BOYS
10. Finch
9. Floyd
8. Basil
7. Edgar
6. Lurch
5. Loomis
4. Nanook
3. Orville
2. Irving
and the #1 Little-Used Baby Name for a Boy is
1. Adolph
*Interestingly, both Shane's and my father's names are on that list.
GIRLS
10. Hortense
9. Myrtle
8. Blanche
7. Viola
6. Maude
5. Whoopi
4. Lovie
3. Bertha
2. Ethel
and the #1 Little-Used Baby Name for a Girl is
1. Mulva (Made popular on the TV show Seinfeld)

I saw a story on the French news last night about this. Many of the French top names are the same(Emma, Chloé, Lucas, for example). The report said that Biblical names are back in style. One guy interviewed said that when he and his wife had their baby, they looked at the top names and picked something else. They didn't want to be trendy.
At least Brittany has gone out of fashion!
