Our Inspiration

We are obsessed. We've spent every free minute of the last four months on Mom and the Pie. We learned how to set up a youtube channel because Sunny Lenarduzzi is the best! We discovered tools for creation like Canva (amazing) and when we felt like we had NO IDEA what we were doing, we'd get a lovely reply to our comment from a fabulous namer like SJ Strum.


We are finding inspiration in so many places. #Babynames on Pinterest? Don't even get us started! We created 30 Unique Names for Girls by collecting names that were new to us. There are at least 20 namers on instagram, including namespottings, who frequently has us laughing out loud.

Did you know Baby Name Monday was a thing? You’re welcome. You don't have to be expecting to enjoy a weekly themed video such as Earthy Baby Names, Unisex Baby Names or Baby Names Inspired by Color every Monday from a variety of enjoyable youtubers.

In the time since we started Mom and the Pie the SSA released their Top Baby Names of 2017 and we made an accurate prediction with Liam. Also in this time a royal baby was born and we anxiously awaited his name. We've discovered naming trends, as some of our most watched videos are Unisex Baby Names and One-Syllable Baby Names (Our girl's edition featuring the Kardashian name True came out before she was born) We've been inspired in so many ways and motivated to continue because we are enjoying every minute of it.

We recently came across the name Laylia. It was new. It was sweet. Had we heard it before? No. Were we sure how to pronounce it? Not really. But we designed media for it and the crowd went wild. Is it the most clever and unique name we've ever seen? No. But it was the finding of it that was such a thrill.

We are finding inspiration in the naming community!

Name Watch 2020: Names for Boys that End with -s

Boy's names that end in the letter "s" are everywhere!  At least it seems that way. Of course with James being perhaps the most popular boy's name of all time, you'd think that -s enders would be all over the charts. Not exactly. There's Lucas of course, coming in at #8 in 2018, but then you have to go all the way to #49 and classic Thomas before you see another boy's name that ends in -s.  So why then, does it feel like we are seeing them everywhere? We are seeing these -s ending names  trend into a few categories. Nature Names An earthy vibe is something we've long seen in naming, yet don't tend to find in the Top 100. Last year we predicted that we'd see some on the rise, yet these boho names still don't top the charts. Perhaps these -s ending nature names will move on up this year.

The Next Kardashian Baby Name

It was early in our naming journey when Khloe's daughter True was born, but only a few days before, we'd posted our video One Syllable Baby Girl Names , and sure enough at 3:23 you can see short & sweet little True. No, we're taking NO credit for any kind of prediction, but it felt kind of cool to have at least had the name on our radar. Nine months later and tons of time spent exploring naming, we are going to make some observations and soft predictions about the next Kardashian baby name. Kanye Omari West & Kimberly Noel Kardashian West have three children: North West Saint West Chicago West With a fourth child on the way, who we know is a little boy, we thought we'd see if we have our finger on the pulse- a feel for what the name might be. We are thinking if we put this out there now, it will be fun to look back at and see how right (or terribly wrong) we were! Jet West How fresh does that sound? With that coast to coast "wheels up&quo
