THIS IS VERY IMPORTANT.
BabyCenter.com surveyed 5,000 moms about their favorite and least favorite baby names of 2009, so that these kids can Google themselves in twelve years and be all like “See, Mom? You set me up for failure! Everyone hated me from the start!” And then they’ll run off and smoke a bunch of crack and get a DUI and go to rehab and it’ll be a great big huge news story and then I WILL MAKE MONEY. So thank you, BabyCenter.com
The favorite baby name of 2009: Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie Prinze Jr.’s now-5-month-old baby girl, Charlotte Grace, who earned 49%. Jennifer Garner and Ben Affleck’s daughter Seraphina Rose Elizabeth, 14 months, came in at second with 12 percent. As a society, I gather, we like names that make us think of novels of manners.
The least fave? Nicole Richie and Joel Madden’s son, Sparrow James Midnight, with 37% of the haterade vote. Second place went to Alyson Hannigan and Alexis Denisof’s daughter Satyana. We do not like names that make us think of birds or foreign people.

I was very happy that my beloved “Buffy” chose such a beautiful, classical, and NORMAL name for her child. None of this Apple Sparrow Mowgli bullshit.
Yep, me too :-)
Totally. Agree 100%.
“As a society, I gather, we like names that make us think of novels of manners. ”
“We do not like names that make us think of birds or foreign people. ”
hahaha priceless. and true.
How about BANDIT LEE, GERARD WAY’s daughter? lol
#1 most stupid celeb baby name? APPLE.
.. Isn’t there a “Pilot” out there somewhere too?
pilot inspektor, i think.
Oh, you don’t “THINK”. You spelled it the way it’s retardedly spelled irl, you KNOW.
this site is on a roll today!
Apple is truly unfortunate. Bandit reminds me of the dog from Little House on the Prairie, and I don’t like names that make me think of the devil, such as Satyana and Damian. Arrian is also not a winner for me. But my least favorite celebrity name? Princess Tiaamii.
Bronx Mowgli. Nuff said.
Worst baby name ever:
Moxie Crimefighter (daughter of Penn, from Penn & Teller)
Imagine hearing THAT name at your high school graduation! Yikes!
