It is not so much about having acquaintances or family help you pick a baby name, so much as it is a way to create small talk where you would otherwise not have anything in common to talk about with these folks.
It could be I'm just tired, or have had too much sugar, but I can't stop laughing at the first and fourth panels. It doesn't help that I'm picturing a woman standing on a front porch, yelling for her son to come in for dinner-- "KHAAAANNNNN!"
Omfg burden love it my sis in law is expecting# 4 now I have a perfect name for it
You have kept away from conversation
How 'bout "Soda"?
I lol'd on every panel - I have no favourite!
Khhhhaaaaaaaannnnnnnn!!!! hehe
Guffaw!
You could still go with Brayden or Jayden of course - just use one of the many variations thereof to give your child that extra bit of personality.
Otherwise, here's a handy list of fabulous names for expecting parents, and some exciting derivations:

Give them the gift that keeps on giving. A lifetime of telling people how their name is spelt.
hahahahahahahha, Maryyy, good line
Starkiller? Luke, han, jar jar, lando, r2, darth nobody!
No I know the mavericks kid should be named johnny Mac! Or if its a girl Sarah, initials I c s r f h Jenkins!
Second and third panel were gems Sir. Keep up with the work.
But... maybe, just maybe, Gimli or Legolas will do.
Khaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaannnnnn!!!!! (It should appear on the birth certificate with all 16 a's, all 6 n's, and -most importantly- all 5 exclamation points.)
Panel 4 is awesome.
Yeah... there should be a law where whenever they see "Brayden" on a birth certificate, they take the child away to be raised by wolves.
love it
It was awesome. First panel was really funny. But last panel made me chuckle really loud.
Then I realized that laughing in the toilet is considered indescent. Or maybe they confused that sound with a f@rt.
I once named a friend's baby FurryAnne - that was one hairy baby - she's sixteen now, a lot less hair and still has the name - but everyone calls her Frannie
Khaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaan!
6:00 AM, at my desk at work & I burst ot laughing. A good way to be left alone for the rest of the day!
Tiberius would be a kickass middle name for a kid. I wanted my first born's middle name to be Akira, but my wife objected.
FIRST?
Burden! Classic!
KHAAAAAAAAAAAAANNNNNNNN! Epic!
Haha, brilliant. I did once know someone whose name was James Kirk. Unsurprisingly, his nickname was 'Captain'. Which, as nicknames go, is not too shabby.
Naming your kids after what they'll eventually become is not a good idea. There're only so many synonyms of "Disappointment".
THAT was hilarious! Too bad I didn't think of that when naming my kids years ago!
