Reality TV is giving birth to some of the most popular baby names.
No, not Snooki. But Mason, as in Kourtney Kardashian's son, jumped 10
spots to become the second most popular name for newborn boys in 2011.
The more traditional Sophia is the new top name for girls, while
Jacob is No. 1 for boys for the 13th straight year, according to the
list released Monday by the Social Security Administration.
Kardashian, the reality TV star, gave birth to Mason in December 2009
following a heavily publicized pregnancy. In 2010, Mason jumped from
No. 34 to No. 12. Last year, 19,396 baby boys were named Mason, an
increase of nearly 4,600, by far the biggest jump for any name.
