Name Nerds: When Did You Get Hooked on Names?

Question of the Week: How and when did you get interested in names?

When you were little, did you love getting new dolls just so you could name them?  Did you create large imaginary elaborately-named families?

As a teen, did you obsess about your future children’s names, writing various possibilities in the margins of your notebooks?

Or was it only until you were actually pregnant, when it became a realistic imperative, that you became hooked on names?

Did the internet escalate your interest into an obsession, finding a place where you could share thoughts and ideas with other name nerds?

REMINDER: You can now add famous namesakes and pop culture references to any name in the database.
