Chart shows more ppl are willing to name their babies after kobe than lebron

[zoom17]

Year before LeBron became famous:

6 Babies

Best Year:

110 Babies

= 1733% increase

Year before Kobe:

87 babies

Peak:

1552 Babies

1684% increase

So it's close. Factor in that Kobe plays in a huge LA market and the fact that you can really only name a black baby LeBron where as Kobe is a more versatile name and i gotta give the edge to LeBron.

It's retarded to name your child after a pro athlete competing for money to begin with...

Even so, it's normal that Kobe as a name is more popular now.The teens that grew up watching Kobe at his prime are now of age to have children...Lebron stans are still in their majority too young to have a family and a kid...

Jabbar you can do better than this man...

[AirFederer]

Kobe carried by Shaq

[Derka]

Probably the dumbest chart ever conceived in human history.

Seriously, it could come in second place to "Which historical dictator would you allow to perform a Dirty Sanchez on you?" and that's about it.

How many girls named Kobe doe?

[iTare]

michael jordan. goat gonna goat.

[DonDadda59]

Let's be real- both names are stupid as hell. One's named after a cut of beef, the other's on some ghetto French bullshit.

[Crown&Coke]

I know two people who named their kid Kobe. One is a complete idiot so he gets a semi-pass.

I know of no one who named their kid Lebron.

I know of about 10 babies named Michael/Jordan. Hell, my ex GF named her build a freakin bear Jordan and she don't even watch ball. She said the shoes look nice

what the hell is this world coming to

[Joyner82reload]

Who the hell would name their kid LeBron? No disrespect to LeBron as a player, but his name is absolutely terrible. Must be crackhead single mothers or something

Yep. Same people who name their kid Dwyane.

[BigBoss]

Pretty sure we're missing information. A LOT of girls are named Lebron too.

[NumberSix]

LeBron is named after a title for a king.

Kobe is named after Japanese food.

[Shade8780]

LeBron is a ghetto ass name. Kobe isn't.

That's like saying more people called their daughter Serena than Sharkeisha.

[KBaller33]

Probably has to do with the names more than anything. Who wants to name their kid "LeBron"?
