babynamesFrom BabyZone.com: "Names Dads love but Mom's hate"
What do you think?
I've put the names they listed, as well as any also listed in the paragraph explanation for why it was added. In parenthesis are the reasons they give for why Dads like and Moms hate.
1. Ace (Why they chose this: Dads think Rock Star, Moms think Ace Ventura...)
2. Axel (Dads want to remember their "Rock and Roll youth", Moms want to forget...)
3. Carina/Cara/Honey (Dads like endearing names for girls, Moms want to prevent it...)
4. Cash (Dads like it better than Chase, Sterling, Barclays, Forbes...)
5. Elexis (Dads think it sounds like a computer character, Moms see constantly having to correct from Alexis)
6. Jack (Dads think it's heroic, like Jack Sparrow, Moms think too popular and would prefer Jackson)
7. Maximus (Dads think its strong, Moms should tell them it's the number one name for dogs)
8. Melissa/Vanessa/Tiffany/Amanda (Dads like "frilly Victorian-Valentine" names. Moms should remind them that they all reached peak popularity in the 70's and 80's)
9. Peyton [on a boy] (Dads like Peyton Manning, Moms see that it's more popular on girls)
10. Richard Jr. (Dad is named Richard, wants to continue the name. Mom sees teasing with Dick as the nn and suggests it as a middle)
11. Venus/Desiree/Salome/Lolita/Delilah (Dads who don't want super frilly names often like "slightly naughty names.)
12. Wyatt [and other place names like: Dallas, Houston, Austin, Dakota, Cheyenne. Also "cowboy names: including Cody, Shane, Rider, Zane, Maverick] (Dads like because its cowboy-ish. Moms find it out of place in the suburbs or cities like Boston)
