To earn a place on America's most popular baby name list, there need to be five babies with that particular moniker. There were 1,393 new baby names in 2014 and here are some of the weirdest.
Princecharles
Five baby boys were named this in 2014. Really.
Upton
Yes, five people named their baby boys Upton - presumably after model Kate Upton.

Five American babies were named this last year. Let that sink in.
Princetin
We think this is a misspelling of the more popular boys name Princeton, which 535 baby boys were named in 204.
Germany
26 American babies were named this last year. It's a new entry on the list for male names, with it previously only given to girls.
Acer
Another new entry with five babies named this last year. We think it's after the laptop brand.
Clutch
Apparently this is a boys' name.
Brilliant
Six baby boys were named this in 2014.

Safari
A new entry for popular male baby names in 2014. Last year five boys and 16 girls were named this.
