Baby Hashtag made her debut in the Twitterverse on Saturday night. Named for an action on the popular social media platform, a hashtag or “#” for short, is a symbol used to mark keywords or topics in a Tweet. The baby’s debut was announced on her parent’s Facebook page:
“Hashtag Jameson was born at 10oclock last nite. She weys 8pounds and I luv her so much!!!!!!”
It’s not the first time that a baby has been given a social media inspired name. Last year, TechCrunch reported that a young Egyptian man named his firstborn daughter “Facebook” to celebrate the Jan. 25 revolution and the role social media played in organizing protests in Tahrir Square.
It's actually kind of cute for a baby... but then again almost any name is cute on a baby
Hopefully they at least gave her a reasonable middle name she could go buy instead when she gets older... You can't even get a good nickname out of "Hashtag".
