You don't even need to fix this line for a Borgy. It just works.

The baby naming is really getting out of hand. I am of the opinion these 'unique' names are not for the baby itself but for the parents. Some sort of narsistic play on how unique their child is, different from the others, maybe even better. In the end, that kid will go through correcting people in how to say their name, have kids come up with nicknames, good or bad. And eventually that child will end up preferring a nickname of their own that will annoy Mom to no end, because that is not the name she picked out for their special flower.

Overall... yeah, I'm 100% with you. Although 'Dusti' doesn't seem too bad to me.

In general, I would agree. I am all for names adapting and evolving over time, after all everything else does, and it is the way of things, but many of the names above just seem rather ridiculous and as you say, seem like it is more for the parents to show their uniqueness instead of actually naming the kid something appropriate.
I'm not even sure I could pronounce a few of them.

Oh I agree. Names change. Names age out and come back. I just look at these names and think about what the kid will go through their entire life.
