Devil Ball Golf found that Annika Sorenstam is asking her fans to help her name her soon to be birthed baby. Her blog offers fans a final set of choices to use in the vote.
Frankly, though, that's disappointing. I would much prefer to be able to use this list of Unusual Names in the State of Georgia from the Atlanta Journal Constitution.
I dare you to use it and see what kind of crap people are naming their babies. If you think Dakota is bad, try some of these on for size. These are all of the children in Georgia whose names BEGIN with King.

Who the hell names their child "Chlorine"
You must really love selling pool supplies to name your child that.

I love the trademark names.
I’m ranking them:
3 star awful
INFINITI
DORAL
DEWALT
4 star horrible
NESTLE
AVIS
5 star “laugh at that child’s name when you see it and then call AFDC” atrocious
EXXON
BACARDI
TANQUERAY
HENNESSY
SANKA
RENU
NOKIA
and the only 6-star “Move over Douglas MacArthur” bad:
MICHELOB

The list is so much fun to look through. When it first came out, I seriously wasted days on it.

Thankfully – as much as I hate government bureocracy – Sweden has an agency that gives the final ok for kids names to protect the kids from stupid parents…and we have some doozies here in Georgia, as you see. (I have had to bite my lip too many times seeing that name Latrina…wondering if her parents knew what a latrine is) The amazing thing is that ALL of these so-called “African” names mean royalty. Pretty amazing. But don’t forget – the Lear family (of the Lear Jet) named a daughter Chrystal Chanda.
But back to the fun…from my favorite movie…“what do you think of naming a child Vladamir…even if it’s a girl ?”

When the baby come to town
We need to be thinking about what we are going to be calling Annika. Something like Commissioner of the LPGA.

when did people stop naming their own babies?
these days celebrities let their fans name their kids, or unemployed single moms sell the rights to name their unborn sons on ebay. strange world.
