Do you know what the most popular baby names are in Maine? They differ somewhat from the rest of the country. We’ll learn about trends in baby naming, which names have Maine connections (think of a certain basketball phenom), why old-fashioned names cycle back—and what goes into the process of choosing a name. This show is part of our series “Name Calling on Maine Calling: Stories of Maine Names.”
