Many Illinois parents are thinking outside the box when it comes to choosing a middle name for their daughters, and it looks like this trend might stick.
When I was born, way back in 1963, my name, Riley, was given to less than 5 babies born in the entire United States. I was in my middle 20s before I met another person with that name. Things have changed in the baby-naming world since then.
In a piece last week, I told you about cheese being the most stolen item from Illinois grocery stores. And while cheese is the biggest focus of grocery theft, baby formulas are not far behind, ranking third overall in pilfered items.
