I’m a professional baby namer — parents are now choosing ones that sound ‘cool’ on social media

Can you handle this baby name trend?
A professional baby namer says parents are now selecting monikers that sound “cool” as a TikTok or Instagram handle.
“Communication and technology are so huge right now and it helps individualize the child and gives them their own unique identity,” Steph Coffield, 40, explained to SWNS.
“People want their kids to have that unique identity — they want their kids to have a cool name handle for Instagram or TikTok in the future,” added Coffield, who charges up to $500 to help expecting parents choose the perfect name for their child.
The Minneapolis stay-at-home mom of three says uncommon baby names are growing more popular — which is great because she’s “so over” John and Mary.
Examples of unique names that also double as interesting social media handles include Ferris, Keaton, and Townsend for boys, Coffield said.
