Dictionary
definition of Cool baby names - Important info!
Cool - Excellent, first-rate, imperturbable,
informal and casual are all definitions of cool. The term 'cool' is a development from a usage meaning “excellent, superlative,” first recorded in written English in the early 1930s. Jazz musicians who used the term are responsible for its popularization during the 1940s. As a slang word it has stayed current (and cool) far longer than most such words.
Other similar slang expressions include capital, hot, groovy,
hip, crazy, far-out, rad, and wicked - these are no longer
perceived as 'cool' but as old-fashioned and out-dated. A
similar fate could well apply when choosing a name that is
currently viewed as cool!

The Reasons why more people are looking for
Cool Baby Names
There is a definite trend towards people choosing Cool Baby Names.
People searching for Cool Baby Names are looking for a name that
has been used by a celebrity and has therefore become highly
fashionable. The problem with this choice of baby name is that

name is forever associated with a specific era. A question that
should be addressed is "Will the cool name of today
continue to be cool in thirty years time?".
Any
name that is the height of fashion and come top in the
popularity stakes is likely to go out of fashion within
fifteen years.
