Would you EVER pay someone $10,000 to help give you a name for your new baby? Well, SOME people do. Taylor A. Humphrey helped name more than 100 babies in 2020 making over $150,000. Taylor does not have any children of her own but what makes her a great baby namer in her eyes is the fact that she’s a “passionate writer and storyteller” who is “adept at branding, marketing and social media.” She actually started a business in 2015 called “What’s in a Baby Name.” How she comes up with names? According to Taylor her services “range from a phone call and a bespoke name list to a genealogical investigation.” She also gives free advice on her TikTok account. CLICK HERE
