on Madison (And we all know how Gene feels about that name)

Eek.  Some of the spellings are particularly . . . tasty.

Four years ago, my own sister and her husband named their daughter
Carey.  (They had an excuse, though, as that's our mom's maiden
name.)  Two years ago, they named their son Jake, although the rest
of us argued for Jacob. 

And one of my coworkers just announced the birth of his new
granddaughter, Makayla.

FYI re:  "Taj":  it's actually a word defined in the dictionary.  "A
tall conical cap worn by Muslims as a headdress of distinction." 
I'd bet the parents are Muslims.

Just realized:  there's an Aspen, but no Sierra?  (Or Ciera, as I've
also seen it spelled?)
