One of our favorite parts about working at Baby Be Hip is seeing all of the great names that come in with the orders!Personalized gifts are so special to give new parents and a new baby, especially if the baby has a unique name or spelling that can’t be found on personalized items in stores – by personalizing their name on a gift, it’s creating a customizable keepsake that parents will always treasure! We love noticing all the name baby naming trends and creative new baby names.

We’ve started a new weekly infographic on our Facebook page that showcases the most popular boy and girl names of the week that we’ve tallied from our orders! It’s so fun to see the trend of the week with boys and girls and if those names will hold the reign the following week, too! This week’s winners were… (drumroll)…

Although those names showed up a few times this week, we also saw a lot of unique names that we loved and I wanted to share! Here’s my roundup of some of my favorite names that came in the office this week:

1. Marin

2. Flynn

3. Norah

4. Mylo

5. Finnley

6. Beau

7. Emmalynn

8. Scarlett

9. Ahren

10. Mason

The stories behind names and spellings of names are always interesting to hear! An article titled the “Most Popular Baby Names of 2012” was just published that states Arya gaining some popularity as a girl’s name, as it’s a character on the popular TV show Game of Thrones! The number two name for boys, Mason, really took off after celebrity Kourtney Kardashian named her three-year-old son Mason, and it’s been popping up everywhere now!

We always love to hear how you chose your child’s name, and you can find out how some of our customers did in our Customer of the Week feature on our blog!

We’d love to know – how did you decide on your child’s name? Leave the story in a comment below!
