  1. Wait, so 3 of the top 5 boys' names in 2008 rhyme? Aiden, Jayden, and Caden? And Brayden is 13 and Hayden is 64? On the girl's side Jayden repeats at 75 and Cadence ranks at 71? Really?

    What are the chances Matt and Anna have this conversation in 15 years?:

    Anna: Ok Dad, I'm going over to Jayden's house.
    Matt: I've never liked that guy.
    Anna: Dad, Jayden's a girl! Aiden's the one you don't like, but I dumped him for Brayden, who I then dumped for Caden.
    (long pause)
    Matt (confused): Whatever, just be home by 11.

  2. That's great. I probably will have conversations like that with her. It will be light-years less confusing than the one we had at dinner today:

    Matt: Do you want a Cheerio?
    Anna: ahhhhhh
    Matt: great, here, take this one.
    Anna (closes mouth): Mmmmmm.
    Matt: Ok. We don't have to have a Cheerio.
    Anna (bangs fists on table): ARRRGGHH!

  3. I see Liam, the "unwavering protector," came in at a cool 42. Glad to see we didn't go with something too trendy.
