This is probably a weird post but I'm curious..

What do you think of the names teenage mothers give to their child(ren)?
Do you think it's possible to tell wether or not a baby was born to a teenager by his/her name?
What names have teenagers you know given to their children? Are they all Aiden/Hayden/Braedens & Addison/Madisons ?

This always kind of bugs me. Yeah, I think a lot of teenage mothers give their kids crappy names, and it's easy to say it's because they're young/immature/have no taste, etc. But then look at all the 30-year-old women naming their kids awful names. I honestly don't think it has anything to do with age.

A girl I know had her son when she was 17. She named him Evan Matthew. A woman I know had twins when she was 35. She named them Aydyn and Addysyn.

I'm not even really prepared to say that more teenagers probably give their kids bad names than older people. I just don't think it's true. I've seen too many supposed 'mature adults' give their kids godawful names to believe it.
