Jack – While we’re across the Atlantic, let’s check in on the most popular names in Northern Ireland. It’s a strange route to a baby name, but when big brother is named Spike, it takes a bold choice like Sunday to feel like a match. Choosing the name was a way to take their least favorite day and make it a positive. Sunday Molly – As for four month old daughter Sunday Molly, Myers explained that he and Kelly hate Sundays. Fellow comedian Spike Milligan, another influence for the Myers’ choice, was born Terence. In his Late Night appearance, Myers explained that Spike is a common nickname for Eric in that part of the world.
Myers is Canadian, but his dad is from Liverpool, England. Spike – Remember when comedian Mike Myers announced that his son was named Spike, and we all thought it just might be a joke? Not only is that his real name, but Spike is named for grandpa Eric.
The baby names in the news this week ranged from modern coinages to old reliables, with a handful of names that defy classification. Mike Myers and Kelly Tisdale are definitely from the daring baby names camp, but in a Late Night with David Letterman appearance last week, Myers revealed that there’s more significance to their choices than you might guess. Or maybe it’s the other way around.Īnd every now and again, the lines between tradition and innovation blur. Most of us probably have a definite preference. Some parents consider names from both sides of the line – innovations like Maddox as well as standards like Robert or Stanley. The couple chose a first name that’s pure twenty-first century, and paired it with a middle that’s been around since the Old Testament. With just two names, the NFL quarterback and wife Brittany ( shown in illustration) managed to capture both extremes in modern baby naming. Congratulations to the Brees family on their latest addition: daughter Rylen Judith.
