My name was almost ‘Bliss’.

That’s right, when I popped out into the world my parents had grand plans to name me after an emotion. A genuine sense of euphoria, to be exact.

And now, all those years later, my parents are finally in good company…

According to Nameberry, a new set of less-than-conventional baby names are on the up and up, and they all have one thing in common – the dictionary.

The trendiest babycino-sipping, kale-munching kids at daycare, will soon be sporting these shiny new names. (Post continues after gallery)…

Names that aren't names.

Brace yourselves, parents.

Kindle.

This tech-savvy pick was used for 15 baby girls last year. We can't quite work out why it's an exclusively female choice...

Boss.

Twelve boys were called Boss last year. It seems that glass ceiling is still very much intact...

Alias.

Alias meaning 'an assumed name' was used for 28 boys last year. And yes, it feels particularly mysterious...

Awesome.

Eight little boys may now confidently assert, with all sincerity, “I’m Awesome.”

Remedy.

Another exclusively female pick. Last year, 27 parents chose this pharmaceutical-themed name for their offspring.

Halo.

This cherubic name, or Beyonce song title, donned the heads of 22 baby boys last year.

Couture.

First there was Chanel, then Armani and now, eight girls have been blessed with the high-fashion name, Couture.

Zeppelin.

In 2014, 42 baby boys and 11 girls were named after Led Zeppelin. Or maybe it was the giant floating, exploding blimp.

Indica.

Indica, another name for 'weed', was used as a name for 26 baby girls last year.

Shanty.

Last year, six baby girls were named after the small, crudely built shack.

Harsh.

18 boys last year, were given this no-doubt-tough-skinned name.

Gamble.

Five boys were named Gamble last year. It is addictive, after all.

Sativa.

Sativa, yet another name for 'weed', was given to 14 baby girls.

Eliminate.

Eliminate, slang for 'murder' (yes, really) was given to 5 baby girls last year.

Yes, these are the top 13 names – or ‘words’ – that American parents are picking, choosing and selecting for their very own little offspring. Because what little girl, or boy for that matter, wouldn’t want to be named after an electronic reading device?

What do you think of the latest baby naming trend?
