Parents, please don’t use a dictionary to name your child

It seems like fewer and fewer parents are cool with giving their baby a traditional name. They want one that’s unique. What better way to find a unique name than to pick any random English word and call it a name?

The website Nameberry.com analyzed data from the Social Security Administration to find a bunch of “real word names” that at least five parents used last year. Here are the 10 most awkward:

1. Alias.

2. Awesome.

3. Boss.

4. Couture.

5. Eliminate.

6. Gamble.

7. Halo.

8. Harsh.

9. Kindle.

10. Sativa, which is a type of marijuana.
