Any baby names in text-message spelling?
It's bound to happen sooner or later! With the prevalence of text-spelling among the younger set, how long will it be until we see children named using this spelling? What would be some good examples? Let's blame ourselves if this becomes the next craze!

Thats too funny, my husband was telling me that his boss was talking about how he suggested to his wife, naming their baby M@t if she had been a boy. Thankfully they named her Ava.

I bet the people in Chaucer's time thought that it was just too funny that there was a movement to have consistent spelling, I mean how many people wanted to read anyway? It would of course entirely ruin the possibility of judging the writer's dialect. etc etc. Change is always with us, Maybe it will be to text message spelling, maybe not. Who cares as long as the babies are still as nice?

Sarah to Srah
Kimberly to Kmbrly
Michelle to Mchlle
Madelyn to Madln
Maddie to Madee
Alexis to Alxs

I hope to God that no one embarasses their child by naming him LuKe JoHnSoN or something like that. It's retarded enough that people can even type efficiently like that.
