Solo and Atom?????


Why do "artists" insist on burdening their offspring with the worst names? How do they sleep at night? Are they really that wrapped up in themselves that they can't see the damage they are doing with these names?

Solo - a big red cup used by college students to play drinking games

Atom - a basic unit of chemical element, or matter.

I am shaking my head and rolling my eyes.

Or maybe she's an admirer of the works of director Atom Egoyan. I hope Solo isn't named after Star Wars, but who knows how these people's minds work.


They are horribly weird names. Though as far as celebrity baby names go, they're on the more moderate end of the spectrum.

Atom could also be seen as a unique spelling of the name Adam. And hey, if you have kids, give them more traditional sounding names. I don't really see anything wrong with Solo or Atom, I think the names are cute and it may help to shape more unique individuals, rather than the clones of society one so often sees.

We have a difference of opinion. I think give the kids a chance in life and not saddled with ignorant stupid names that have them stand out in the strange way. Children do not want to be the odd kid out, strange spellings, strange names. Just ask them. They alway have to spell or repeat their names everywhere they go. It affects them, and reflects poorly on the 'parent' that wanted attention.

No actually, it's pretty ignorant of you to slam the names. For all you know, the names could be significant to her or her husband.

It's an ordinary high school day. Except that it's not.

Actually, its pretty ignorant of you. Put the kids welfare before your own egos and you would see.

Welfare? Do you think they're going to get murdered or something because of their names?

Ya might want to look up what welfare means. SMH

Wow! You sound like someone who is never seen and never heard. Just plain old ordinary, bland and insignificant. Never one to go against the grain because of how it will be looked upon by society. Coming from a Susan...I guess you would feel that way. Lighten up and LIVE a little, damn!
