I personally have never seen anyone consider Cameron for a girl before Cameron Diaz. Now its everywhere. I dislike it for that reason. There's something insubstantial to me about naming trends totally driven by Hollywood. One of the reasons I can't stand Xander, which I never saw before Buffy the Vampire Slayer, but now so many little kids are given it as a first name.

I readily admit this may be somewhat unfair, and its a very personal bias - I can't stand celebrity worship, so I roll my eyes any time I hear about a girl Cameron or an Ashton or Xander. I can only imagine it won't be long before we start to see the little Apples.
