Facebook users worldwide preferred Madelyn to McKenna.
Apparently Facebook users aren't total dicks. I'd only slightly rather be named McKenna than Penisface.

Maybe she just really digs mushrooms and admires the batshiat insanity of Terrence McKenna.

Well, if the article is what I read, they limited the name to a specific list. That's why it's a normal name.

More people chose Madelyn over McKenna because Madelyn is an actual first name. (Not ideal spelling, but I can overlook that.) The wife is stupid for even taking that bet; her choice never stood a chance.

They only gave the voters two choices: the stupid choice that he preferred, and the even stupider choice that she preferred.
Hmmmm... this system of voting sounds familiar but I can't put my finger on where I've seen it before

And judging by your reasonable reaction to people who have had no bearing on your decision to give your kid a stupid name whatsoever, she seems like she'll grow up to be a well-adjusted stripper.

They are still naming her McKenna, just as the "middle name". Boring, the female wins as per usual.

By 2030, all of the males in Canada will be named Tim, and their middle names will all be Horton.

My kid is 3 days old.
Being named after a famous Greek myself, my top choices where:
Apostrophe if its a girl.
Parenthesis if its a boy.
My wife wanted names like Austin, Travis and Tristan.
It was a boy. We settled on Felix.

So many Tristans. I put 'Isolde' on our list just to keep them company.
... but only if we went with a car company middle name: Isolde Portia, Isolde Mercedes, etc.

I knew a woman who was called "Isolde Fanny [last name]."
At least I think that was her name. It might have been her job description.
