The 2nd Annual Baby Name Face-off BEGINS!
September 2nd, 2008 by RahulFriends, Family, Ladies and Gentlemen, the 2nd Annual Gupta Family Baby Name Face-off has begun!
The tournament consists of 32 names: 16 picked by Rahul and 16 picked by Sarah. We asked Tatiana if she had any ideas, and she said “ackitow” (which translates to “tractor”), so we decided she wasn’t taking this seriously enough.
Each list of 16 names was compiled in secret. We then pitted them, one name against another. First Sarah revealed one of her names, and then I picked one of mine to compete against it. Then I picked one of mine, and she one of hers to try to beat mine. And so on. It was intense.
Pairings in place, they were divided into the divisions you see below.
It is now up to you. Every week you will vote, and every week the list will be cut in half ’til we have one name left (Sarah wouldn’t let me add Highlander to the list, but we all know that would have won).
The voting system we’re using allows you to vote more than one time, but we ask that you limit it to one vote per person, please. If you want to come back to the page to see who’s winning, click on the link that says “show results” instead of voting again… We’ll know if you don’t. We’re keeping track.
Also, please feel free to use the comments area at the bottom of the post for discussing the finer points of each name.
