AN UNUSUAL SOURCE FOR BABY’S NAME

 

CEMETERY

 

It seems old-fashioned names like Pearl and Gloria are in. Jack Osbourne and his fiance, Lisa Stelly, chose the first, and Maggie Gyllenhaal and husband Peter Sarsgaard chose the second.

And now there seems to be a trend towards giving girls a traditional boy name. Jessica Simpson just named her newborn daughter Maxwell Drew. And Levi Johnson, father of Sarah Palin's grandchild, is going to name his soon-to-be-born baby girl after a gun: Beretta.

There's a place you can get some great ideas for names - your local cemetery.

If you like old-fashioned baby names, you can't get much more vintage than those culled from centuries-old headstones. These 30 names were found at a graveyard.

These are all traditional male names, but might they might just work for females if you're in to unisex names.
