While Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Vanchi LaShawn “Van” Jefferson was playing in Super Bowl LVI last month, his pregnant wife Samaria suddenly went into labor (several days early).
Samaria was forced to leave SoFi Stadium mid-game — before the Rams eventually beat the Bengals, 23-20 — to go to her birthing center.
Not long after the game ended, the couple welcomed a baby boy.
They considered the names Miles and Wynn, but finally settled on Champ, which Van said was “very fitting for the type of situation we just had.”
One thing I love about Quebec? Their yearly baby name list includes all baby names.
Not just names given to 5 or more babies, like the U.S. list. Not just names given to 3 or more babies, like the England and Wales list.
Every single name. Regardless of whether the name was given to hundreds of babies or just one.
Privacy: Who needs it! :)
Here are some stats on all those Quebec names:
7,921 boy names total
6,107 (77%) of them were given to 1 baby boy
7121 (90%) of them were given to 1, 2, 3 or 4 baby boys*
9,074 girl names total
6,686 (74%) of them were given to 1 baby girl
8058 (89%) of them were given to 1, 2, 3 or 4 baby girls*
*So, if the names given to 5+ babies in Quebec account for only about 10% of the names on the full list, and we assume baby name distribution in the U.S. is similar, the “full” U.S. lists should contain over 140,000 boy names and over 190,000 girl names.
Here are some of Quebec’s unique names (used only once):
In 2007, a UK woman named Shelley Smith went into labor at Gala Bingo, a bingo hall in West Yorkshire. She gave birth 20 minutes later at a hospital, but didn’t forget the bingo hall when she named her daughter Mika Jade Gala.
The only other gambling-related baby names I can think of are GoldenPalace.com and Wynn. Have you come across any others?
Please note that I did include names in the gray area between one syllable and two syllables. The deciding factor on these particular names will be your own interpretation/accent, so be sure to test the names out loud before making any final decisions. (“Hayle,” for instance — would you say it like Hale, or like Hailey? Or “Rise” — is it rize, or ree-sah?)
Many of these names also happen to be unisex, so they appear on the One-Syllable Boy Names list as well.
