These days, it's more of a challenge than ever to think up a creative baby name. What with celebs one-upping each other all over the place and non-celebs, well, also one-upping each other all over the place. But there's a fine line between creative and plain old crazy, and I'm afraid the parents who recently named their newborn baby Hashtag Jameson might have crossed it. Yup, "Hashtag." Yup, after the Twitter thing. Now, I don't know these people personally. Perhaps this social media term has some deep significance for them. Maybe there's a beautiful, emotional story behind this baby's name and we just don't know it yet. So I don't want to be too harsh on little Hash's mom and dad ... but I think it's safe to say that this child's name is gonna be a problem. Like, for life.![]()
