Utah Baby Namer

For those of us who visit or transplant to Utah, the names of people here are downright shocking! Funky names and odd spellings are so common that I was often asked to spell my name at BYU (J-e-n-n-y, duh.) and even had it misspelled (G-i-n-y-f-i-r).

Here is a link to one of my favorite sites, the Utah Baby Names website:

I spend a lot of time reading this site as encouragement when I’m trying to pick out baby names for my children: “At least I’m not naming her Brighiminie, LaNondus, or Morona!”
