from our census today on my pediatric floor at the hospital...

We had a couple uncommon names today so I thought I'd mention them here just for giggles. I wish I could look up all of their middle names. Some of them are listed, but most of them are not.

Theron (newborn male)
Haven Francine (4 year old female)
Darby (4 year old female)
Navarri Delano (4 year old male)
Leighton (11 year old male)
Mayte Sage (12 year old female)
and Navaeh (3 month old female) -- Mind you, this doesn't spell heaven backwards like the way everyone else on the bandwagon spells it (seriously, I have seen at least a dozen babies in the last two years named Nevaeh). I asked the mom if we spelled the baby's name correctly three times and she said it was correct. It was verified on the insurance card, too. So lol@her for mispelling heaven backwards.

I kind of like it, too. As a matter of fact, there's a pulmonologist with the first name Theron that makes rounds at the hospital. So I guess I see it as a sophisticated/smart name.

Theron is my nephew's name, a friend's baby's name, and the name of a news anchor in Washington state. And of course, there's Charlize Theron, but I'm not sure that counts. Anyway, I like it.

I know a Leighton who's around 20, but I'm not sure I really like the name. He goes by Leigh mostly.

I don't like the rest of the names.
