"Brooklyn" 101st Most Popular Name Last Year
The Brooklyn boom is extending beyond real estate and professional sports teams. Last year, 3,211 babies were given the name around the country, making it the 101st most popular name of 2004. In Utah, it came in at Number 8, beating out such perennial faves as Elizabeth, Sarah, and Ashley. The popularity of the name comes six years after Posh Spice and David Beckham named their son after the borough in which he was conceived. As for the Bronx and Queens, they're not even close to cracking the top 100.
