Clarification on her name

So I've been rained out again so here I am at the office. I was listening to the local radio station and they were discussing the fastest rising baby names of 2007. Miley is number one, then Kingston (Gwen Stefani's son), Mylee (unique spelling for Miley Cyrus), Jordan (American Idol), Jaslene (America's Top Model winner). The morning guys went on and on about how sad it is that people name their children after celebrities. I DID NOT NAME MY DAUGHTER AFTER A POP STAR!!!!!!!! I honestly, no bs, never heard of her until I was already 8 months pregnant. If you can't tell, I get asked all the time if Miley was named after her. Or I get this "Oh, Miley, like Miley Cyrus?" No, like Miley my Miley, my baby not someone else. I really hope this whole Miley business is over soon and she is just a distant memory.

So you may ask, where did Miley come from then? I've always liked the name Kylie and one day watching television I heard the name Miley (a character). This was years ago by the way. Anyway I heard it and thought wow, that is really pretty and different. It stuck with me since it was something so different. Well, not anymore I guess. I e-mailed the radio station letting them know I didn't appreciate being bashed on air for something I didn't do. Called Stephen and told him to think of a new name for our baby. I think Bettie is in the led. Does she look like a Bettie?
