Last week, the Social Security Administration revealed the top baby names of 2010 were Isabella and Jacob, but it turns out the most popular baby names in NY are Isabella and Michael (again). But let's look at the country's #34 girl's name, which happens to be... Brooklyn. more ›

The Social Security Administration released its annual tally of the most popular baby names and Isabella and Jacobs are tops yet again. The hottest boys' names are Grayson, Kellan, Mason, Easton, and Bentley and the hottest girls' names are Giuliana, Kinley, Khloe, Quinn and Maci—these hot names are fueled by pop culture figures, from Teen Moms to actors, from E! news hosts to E! reality show stars. (Explanation: "Incredibly, this name has made the hottest-rising list three years running on the reality-tv coattails of Khloe Kardashian. Four years ago Khloe was just a fringe "kreative" spelling of the hit traditional name Chloe. Now it's a top-50 hit.") more ›

Following up on news that little Adolf Hitler Campbell—of the birthday cake cause celebre—and his siblings JoyceLynn Aryan Nation Campbell and Honszlynn Hinler Jeannie Campbell were removed from their parents' care and put into NJ state custody: The Express-Times reports, according to a Holland Township police sergeant, "New Jersey officials assured him it had nothing to do with the siblings' Nazi-inspired names"—"It was other matters." Parents Heath and Deborah Campbell are scheduled to appear at a hearing today. Last month, following the hubbub over his son's name, Heath Campbell told the Express-Times, "I'm sorry if I hurt the world but it's just a name to us. Maybe when he (Adolf Hitler Campbell) gets older they'll just see that he loves everybody and they'll say, 'You know, maybe we did misjudge.'" more ›

When you name your baby Hitler—or, in this case, Adolf Hitler Campbell—perhaps you are stacking the deck against him. A NJ family is upset that ShopRite refused to personalize a cake with "Happy Birthday Adolf Hitler." The boy's father, Heath Campbell, a "Nazi fan" (his other kids are JoyceLynn Aryan Nation and Honszlyn Hinler Jeannie) and Holocaust denier who decorates his home with swastikas, told reporters yesterday, "There's a new president and he says it's time for a change. Well, then it's time for a change. They need to accept a name. A name's a name. The kid isn't going to grow up and do what [Hitler] did." ShopRite offered to write "Happy Birthday" with room for the Campbells to inscribe it themselves, but the outraged family took their business to Wal-Mart, which apparently supplied little Adolf's earlier cakes. For levity: Top 10 rejected names for Adolf Hitler Campbell ("9. Dahmer Amin Stalin Telemarketer Campbell"). more ›
