Saw a baby boy...

I recently saw a two month old boy... named Sparrow. I'm not sure if the parents are really into nature, or the biggest Pirates of the Caribbean fans ever.

Or maybe even Nicole Richie fans? I swear, until she had her daughter, Harlow and her son, Sparrow... those names were never mentioned here... There's no way she wasn't even a little bit of the reason why those names have been on the rise.

Sparrow is kind of cute. Not something I would use. I think of Captian Jack Sparrow every time I hear it though.

I think Sparrow kind of works as a name; it could even be kind of cute on a girl. Still, though I sometimes like names like that, they don't exactly scream professional so I hope he has a more normal middle name to use, if necessary, when he enters the workforce.

That made me giggle, because I realized that's what the name Sparrow makes me think of, not the bird any more.

I automatically think of Nicole Richie and Joel Madden at this point.

I actually love this name for a girl. Not so much for a boy though.

I hope that bird names aren't becoming a new trend. I've already been told that someone is using Wren after hearing my daughter's name, which is flattering, but we want her name to stay unusual!

I'm considering the middle name Lark, myself, but only because it's a family surname. It has nothing to do with the bird in my case. :)

I went to school with a girl named Sparrow so it's not that odd to me.:)

I like Sparrow. As a middle name, though.

Im finding I like this, in spite of myself!
