It’s a choice between Jazzy and Hurricane

A list comprising 2012’s most unusual baby names has been compiled, and while they’re all cute on babies it’s only a matter of time before little Vanille or Turbo’s resume comes across your desk.

According to parenting website The Baby Centre, the data is a result of 500,000 submissions, and the names had to have been given to at least two babies in order to make the list.

Still though, it’s difficult to imagine the leaders of the future with names such as Jedi or Starlit…
