Name That Baby (Seriously?)
from Tangent Station · host Kevin Hayes and Willis Lorensen
This episode explodes with comic outrage over modern baby names — from Brakesley Oak to phonetic user manuals — as our hosts roast parents treating birth certificates like password generators. They riff on noun names, pseudo-regal choices (King, Maverick, Legend), and the future job-interview consequences of glittery monikers. Along the way there are nostalgic detours about maps, naming yourself at a certain age, and why spelling matters. The banter lands frequent punchlines: Wi‑Fi-password babies, laminate-flooring names, and the idea that if a name requires a pronunciation guide, it might be doing the kid a disservice.
