A Unique Name For Unique Cub Fans

A few years ago, a couple of friends of mine moved away from Topeka and went to Arizona. A few months later, I moved to Chicago. While we had left Topeka, they had a small son. They liked Kansas so much they named their first born son Kansas. Being Christians and with the path to God being the "narrow path" they gave this son the middle name of Lane. Eventually we all returned to Topeka, and I was introduced to Kansas Lane Barker by his parents.
Do you think that is a unique name. Well so did I, until today.


Two Chicago Cubs fans in Indiana whose last name is Fields have named their son Wrigley Fields.

Wrigley Alexander Fields was born Sept. 12 to Paul and Teri Fields of Michigan City.

"He can go by his middle name if he wants to," Paul Fields said. "We'll go with Wrigley for now."

This kid better be a Cubs fan forever?


Cubs officials have no record of other children named Wrigley, though they have come across babies named Zambrano and Ryne after Cubs stars Carlos Zambrano and Ryne Sandberg, the Post-Tribune reported.
