Grey's Anatomy: Baby Names and a Quote

Sometimes doing something is worse than doing nothing. - Meredith Grey

Now, this is a true statement, although it is quite vague and, as of now, has little correlation to the post I'm writing. Let's just say that it's a stretch, but I will do my absolute best to make it tie in, somehow, to the topic at hand. But, we'll get to that in a second. First, we must discuss baby names. Yes, baby names. Normally, being a TV website, the subject of baby names does not come up. I admit that this is at least partly regrettable; who doesn't enjoy a good baby name discussion?

Grey's Anatomy, it turns out, is effecting the names being given to the newborns of this country. According to The Daily Bulletin, the name "Addison" (i.e. Dr. Addison Shepherd) is one of the biggest rising names in the US. Addison, a girl's name, has jumped 57 spots in the previous year, now ranking as the 27th most popular female baby name. This is astonishing.

I think it's a great name despite the fact that it lacks imagination.

I had to comment because I personally love the name Addison. My husband and I are trying for another baby and if its a girl her name will be Addison Laura. Ofcourse, I've never been creative, my other kids are Kaitlyn and Jakob.
