Re: Taking hipster baby names up a notch

Hm.
I don't find the article particularly clever. Some of them are pretty sensible names, like Clementine. And naming your child after a novel is not the worst thing in the world, either.
They're not necessarily the ones I would have gone for, anyway.
Sometimes sentences don't end the way you think they salad.

The main list is names that are already established favorites in the hipster community. The comments below each name is a take on the extent that some parents will go to give their kids the newest and freshest hipster names.
Clementine is legit (as it was one of the established names) - the sarcasm was comparing it to Plum and Kiwi. Which is even more tongue-in-cheek since Plum is becoming trendy online as a middle.
I didn't find the whole thing witty - but Narwhal really made my day.

Plum has already been used as a name. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plum_(disambiguation)
