Baby Name Wizard

Some time now I been been playing with voice recognition shipped with Windows and how to interface with it and make a custom voice control application. This posed a slight problem, not with programming part but with something quite different.

After 16 years of owning a computer I was compelled to name my computer. Lame, but necessary. I didn't want computer to activate voice recognition every time someone yells "computer". So I decided to name it. should it be a girl or a boy. I choose a girly name.

First off, I had problems choosing a name so I checked the web for some page that could help me. The Baby Name Wizard - NameVoyager was the best I found.

It not only provides boy and girl name but also shows how popular was any given name in a span of over a century. There is also a search function and to spike things up its a Java app that is animated and nice to use.

Planing a family or just want to name a pet or a gadget check it out.

Digg!
