Retail Babies: 'Ikea' And 'Disney' Among New Baby Names

San Francisco, CA -- The low-cost Swedish furniture chain Ikea is a popular stop for shoppers -- but it's also becoming a popular name for kids.

Well, sort of. According to the 2004 BabyCenter Baby Names List, at least one set of parents decided to bestow the name "Ikea" on their bouncing bundle of joy in the past year.

That's not the only brand-name baby: The name poll also shows kids have been named after the Disney retail empire and the car line Infiniti.

Other odd infant names picked by parents in past year include Tahini, Sushi, Ohm, YouYou and Blazer.

Just for the record, Jacob and Emma were the most popular baby names for tots born in 2004.
