Received HR's email about future training schedules with bios of the incoming analyst class and I just couldn't help but to notice these people named after cities/places: Sydney, Brooklyn, Eyerusalem, Asia... I grew up knowing people with the most generic names but well I guess that aint the trend anymore.

I've seen people with all those names mentioned except for Eyerusalem (wtf)
I don't know if this is relevant, but every girl I've ever met named "Cali" is batshitfuckingcrazy
Second this, only know 2 though.
Kalli or Cali = fucking nuts Callie = in the clear
What about Kali?
I always thought the joke was they were named after where they were conceived.
In all seriousness, people want unique names for their "unique" kids, but there has been a backlash against names that are too unique, so what's the solution? City/place names are unique sounding but still familiar.
FWIW every girl I’ve met named “Dallas” has been a complete smoke
Names go through phases, just like everything else. Not many babies named Gertrude these days. If you were a 90s kid you probably knew a bunch of Brittany's / Jessica's / Ashley's, but those are basically extinct for girls born today.
want me to really blow your mind?
a chick named after a place AND a car
pornstar asia carrera
....I doubt that's the name her mother gave her
It would depend on the location, I guess.
Coolest girls I have been introduced to: Avery, Avalon, Bailey, Calleigh, Dajana (Diana), Niamh, Elly/Ellie/Ella, Summer, Mica, Poppy, McKenzie
I kind of don't like boring names like Sarah any longer.
was this a Vegas or Miami stripper joint?
Life in the UK, bro. Have spent years there and the lasses not only look like strippers, they also have stripper names! they put out too
I've always thought that Texas had a lot of name sounding cities.
Austin, Dallas, Tyler etc.
NE Dallas Metro has Allen, Lucas, Wylie, Josephine, Parker
Texas itself can also be a given name, though uncommon.
Many place names are quite good baby names, like Madison/Dallas for girl or Dayton/Denver for boy. I personally don't like names after countries/continents because of the uncalled for confusion but it seems that's what parents want nowadays. At least two kids from my mom's side of relatives were named India, my folks' next door neighbor named their new born daughter Chyna, I was like what lol
