The game of golf has become increasingly popular over the years and people have taken an interest in the professionals, likening them to Hollywood stars and other notable professional sports players that have tended to receive more attention in the past.
Check out our list of golfer baby names for your sporty tot. Perhaps, you'll find a hole-in-one to name your golf-lover-in-the-making.
Golf lovers may notice that the game seeps into their lives in many ways: a putt-putt course in their backyard, that certain "golfer" attire — on and off the course — and perhaps even in how they name their children. With so many amazing golfers out there, it is only natural that a golf aficionado may turn to some of the top players for inspiration when seeking out the perfect golfer baby name for their little one.
In a recent article posted on ESPN.com, Shawn Peters compiled a list of the top 50 golfers. A few of the names are traditional names (Mike Weir, Jerry Kelly and John Senden, for example), but there are several on the list that might just pique your interest.
Baby Boy Golfer Names
The top one you might imagine we'd suggest is — you guessed it, Tiger (as in Tiger Woods, of course). But did you know that his real first name is actually Eldrick? Well, it was at birth anyway. The young golf phenom eventually legally changed his name to Tiger, however.
In 2007 Rory Sabbatini was considered to be one of the best putters on the PGA TOUR and finished second at The Masters. If you're looking for a "winning" name, Rory should be at the top of your list.
Hunter Mahan was called a "sure thing" (besides Tiger, naturally!) in the latter half of the 2007 season. A fringe player, he recently won the Traveler's Championship, followed by three top 10's in a row.
A few other male golfer names to consider from Peters' list: Brandt (Snedeker), Zach (Johnson) — or think about a variation on spelling here, such as Zak or Zack — Woody (Austin), Geoff (Ogilvy), Ernie (Els), Padraig (Harrington), Luke (Donald), and Heath (Slocum).
Baby Girl Golfer Names: Legendary Ladies of the Links
Don't forget the girls hit the greens, too. Some of the most popular women in golf have some pretty cool names to pick from… whether they are known more for their swing or their "curves." In fact, according to Golf.com, "Today's stars are selling not only their record but their… body of work." A few ladies that were voted by Golf.com as "Sexiest Women Golfers" include:
Natalie Gulbis, who is considered to be the "poster girl" for sexy golfers, also made FHM Magazine's list of 100 Sexiest Women of 2007. Sophie Sandolo, Anna Rawson, Paula Creamer, Cristie Kerr, Carin Koch, and Grace Park are a few others that Golf.com mentions.
About.com ranked female golfers as well, looking at their stunning golf ability over their superficial looks. Of course Annika Sorenstam topped the list because of her history of posting great numbers in some of the most competitive fields in women's golf. Others on this list include Mickey (Wright), Kathy (Whitworth), Babe Didrikson (Zaharias), and Nancy Lopez.
So when you're out on the greens, you might want to start mulling over some of these popular names. Just think — how you name your child may just solidify his or her destiny as a future golfing great!

Had been thinking about Lindsey's new vibram fivefingers ever since she posted about them on this blog. When she first sent me a photo of these bizarre looking vibram five,I just laughed at their vibram fivefingers ridiculousness, thinking 'no way I'll ever put those things on my five finger feet!' But alas, once I saw them and read about them, I just couldn't stop thinking about them! I had to try them for myself. Last week I went to Blue five fingers Ridge Mountain Sports in Charlottesville, VA and tried on a pair of fivefingers kso. I tried both the Classics and the Sprints, but I liked the arch and heel support in the Sprints much vibram shoes better. Like my sister, I impulsively purchased a pair on the vibram five finger spot. Obviously I had to try them out right vibram finger away, so I mixed a little bit of walking and vibram five fingers running in since I had read many reviews explaining you need to vibram five fingers shoes gradually adjust your muscles to barefoot running.Running in these five fingers shoe is amazing. I actually am not a running fan, but these shoes make it feel more vibram five fingers fluid, light, and fun! After running/walking in them for the first two vibram kso days, I took a break to let my muscles vibram classic recuperate. This past weekend I broke them back out for some hiking and wouldn't you know, I fell even more in love with them. Although vibram flow walking over gravel in my Vibrams was a little vibram sprint uncomfortable, the rest of the hike was extremely fun and vibram fivefingers kso enjoyable. I am wanting to work out in my vibram 5fingers every day!Most of the vibram shoes sale, the fact that it is indeed more harm than good. The problem is that these shoes in order to “protect” in such a way that they should not be his leg. After the over-built five finger shoes muscles, tendons and ligaments of the lower limb atrophy conclusions. This is because your five fingers shoe do the work, your legs and feet should do.
