25 Days of Christmas: Christmas

Merry Christmas everybody! This series was a lot of fun. I hope you enjoyed it as much as I did. Our last Christmas name is Christmas. She has never been in the top 1000. Denise Richards played Christmas Jones in the 1999 James Bond film "The World is Not Enough." Other than that, Christmas is hardly ever heard as a baby name.

Christmas would make a lovely name for a holiday baby. She's long and pretty, so she could also work as a middle for a short name. Christmas is so unique, you're practically guaranteed not to have any others in her kindergarten class.

Thanks for reading this series, I'll be back next week with regular posts!

25 Days of Christmas: Eve

Our Christmas baby name of the day is Eve. Eve is a Hebrew name meaning "life." She's never been too popular. Currently she stands at #546; her peak was in 1907, when she reached #414. Eve has never fallen out of the top 1000, but she came close in 1984, when she fell to #998.

Eve is very similar to her more popular sound-alikes, including Eva, Ava, and Evie. Her special connection to Christmas Eve makes her better for a holiday baby. Eve would be a great name for a baby girl born on December 24. Check back tomorrow for our final installment of the 25 Days of Christmas series. Happy Christmas Eve!
