Let the odd celebrity baby name brigade continue on.
Kate Hudson and fiancee Matt Bellamy have at last named their newborn baby boy: Bingham "Bing" Hawn Bellamy. The infant was born on Saturday, though his actress mom and Brit rocker dad were reportedly hesitant on his official moniker. US Weekly reports that the couple finally chose the name on Wednesday and Bellamy tweeted the news shortly after.
While Bingham might seem like an odd choice for a baby name, as far as NewsFeed is concerned, for a celeb baby name it could be a lot worse. Sure, anyone who's ever watched the show Friends knows that the name Bing could be a disaster waiting to happen, but at least it's not as bad as some celeb baby names. Pilot Inspektor Lee, anyone?

Indian baby names and naming trends for the year 2010
As we step into 2010, we felt it is the right time to do some research and find the hottest baby names and naming trends for the year 2010. Our general observation is that many of us had Girl babies. We are sure if there was a census of the babies born in 2009, it will be the year of the girl baby.
The naming trend for this year is that the most popular names are the traditional names. Names from Vedas mythology and Sanskrit appear very popular. In a poll we ran on our baby names site Indianhindunames.com for the last several months, 60% of the voters chose a Hindu name as their choice for their baby name, while 32% of voters chose to have an Indian name. Another 6% of the voters opted for a foreign name.
Our newborn photo gallery is a good resource for us to get real names of the kids born this Year. The common names like Rajesh, Satish etc. which were a rage a decade ago is no longer in demand. Many people preferred to have their child names start with Alphabet 'A'. We had a lot of Abhisheiks, Adityas and Avantikas. The second preferred alphabet has been 'S'. There were lot of Sanjivs, Saniyas and Sanvis.
Parents really need a unique name for their baby and they will go that extra bit to identify a unique name or create a unique name of their own from popular names. We found a lot of new names like Ashvantika, Snikita etc. Tradition rules and there are parents who still go with the time tested approach of naming their babies as per birth month rashi or their customs.
A new trend is the consultation of a numerologist in advance while naming the baby so that they don't have to alter it in future. We have seen these names with extra alphabets than normal spelling in our gallery database, which is a sign of numerological consultation. We are sure 2010 will be a great year with new original names along with the traditional names. The World Wide Web gives us more name ideas than ever before and with the right tools, we can mould more. We wish you all a wonderful year of parenting.
