One of the bigger newspapers in Maine has a Twitter feed that I follow (@pressherald.) Today, it tweeted:
Maine’s No. 1 baby names for 2008: Emma and Jacob bump Madison and Ethan. And hello, Caleb; goodbye, Logan. http://bit.ly/kUwqS
TheGuy and I spent months, of course, working on finding a name for TheLittleGuy that was not a number one name anywhere. So I IM’d the tweet to him and the following conversation ensued:
