Baby names are windows into our collective consciousness. When Gwyneth Paltrow named her daughter Apple in 2004, it was earth-shaking news and sparked a shift in what was considered an appropriate baby name. And the same way names fall out of fashion (Adolf in the late ‘40s and ‘50s), they come into fashion (X Æ A-Xii — son of Elon and Grimes) by influence of the world around them.
