Naming trend from Boston Globe? (m)

There was a photo spread in today's Globe. The first picture was of a baby in a carseat/carrier. The caption explained that the baby's parents were evacuees from New Orleans. When they arrived in Massachsuetts the first announcement was that they had arrived on Cape Cod. The parents, who were expecting a baby, decided to name the baby "Cape Cod." The article was very brief and did not say if the baby was a boy or girl.

I saw that too, in the magazine section. I was horrified!!! I believe the baby was in blue so I just assumed it was a boy. Can you imagine? What's next, baby Foxboro when the Patriots win the Super Bowl next year?!?! LOL!

You're right. I went back and looked and the baby is wearing blue.

You gotta admit - the name "Foxboro" does have a ring to it (LOL!).
