What to Name the Baby

The usual list of this year's 10 Most Popular Baby Names for 2018-19 is circulating on the Internet, so in case you lack imagination, are totally stupid, or doubt your own decisions, when the blessed event arrives you'll fill in the birth certificate with pride by giving your baby the very same name as some big movie star or star athlete did. By the time your kid reaches pre-school and all the students have the same name, he or she will fit right in.

But take it from the mother of a Zack -- a name that soared to new heights the same year my father, also named Zack, died and we followed the Jewish tradition of naming a new baby after a deceased loved one -- that's not a good thing when you're at an amusement park and a dozen other parents are shouting out your kid's name.
