- A third of parents say they didn’t give enough thought to their child’s name.
- 73% of parents say they thought of better names after they named their child.
- As for why they regret their kid's name, most say it’s because as their child got older the name no longer suited them.
- Other reasons folks regretted their child’s name include:
