I have no problem with parents naming their babies based on celebrity names that they've grown fond of. But does anyone else find it really sad and disturbing that people are naming their children after Paris Hilton, and that the number spiked when her sex tape leaked? How the hell can the parents not see the kind of connotation associated with that name now? How does that thought process work? And, like the article said, there wasn't a spike in Madonnas back in the '80s!
