Judy is a Punk! Top 10 Punk Rock Baby Names

Here at Psychobaby we obviously are commited to bringing you the coolest, craziest baby clothes (among other awesome stuff), and that is driven by our deep and unabiding love of all things ROCK AND ROLL. Being punk is going against the grain, swimming upstream, turning it up loud and wearing whatever the heck you feel like. So in the spirit of  that, let us present our 10 favorite super punk rock baby names!

1. Sid (Sex Pistols) 

We realize this troubled musician's tale is not the happiest, but punk isn't always happy- it's raw, real, and messy. And Sid Vicious' story is as iconic as it gets in punk history. Plus, Sidney is an awesome name for little punks and punkettes alike!

2. Nancy (Sex Pistols)

The lady half of punk rock's most famous love story. Romeo and Juliet, take a hike, Sid & Nancy will always be punk's reigning king and queen.

3. Joey (from the Ramones)

There's a 1 in 5 chance someone in your family is named Joseph, so pretend you're naming your kiddo after them but secretly you named him after Joey Ramone and are going to raise the punkest little dude on the planet. (We maybe made up that statistic, but lots of guys are named Joseph, so it's maybe true.)

4. Ramona

So you had a little girl, that means, Joey, DeeDee, Marky & Tommy are all off the table for baby names... why not pay homage to ALL the Ramones by calling your punkette Ramona? Plus, people will think it's after Ramona Quimby, and that's not a bad thing either.

5. Johnny (Rotten)

Lead singer of the Sex Pistols, this name will make Grandma & Grandpa happy while letting you nod to one of punk rock's greats. (And Johnny Cash!)

6. Henry (Black Flag) 

Henry is a pretty All-American-sounding name...unless it's inspired by the hardcore singer of Black Flag, Henry Rollins. Who turned out pretty awesome. Dig his Fabio mane in this pic:

7. Lita

Lita Ford, bad-ass guitarist for the all-girl punk band The Runaways. This is one girl who rocks just as much as her name does.This name has a retro flair to it, and is unique enough that you don’t hear it often.

8. Iggy 

Iggy Pop - the Godfather of Punk - and overall rock 'n' roll legend has a totally unique name.  You could always take the safe route and use the name Ignatius with the nickname of Iggy...but who are you kidding? Hand the kid a guitar and let him rock!

9. Sheena

Dudes, Sheena is a PUNK ROCKER!!! One of the best ever Ramones songs, and therefore a great choice for a punk rock Psychobabe.

10. London

London/the UK - home of some of the greatest punk bands known to man - The Clash, The Sex Pistols, Joy Division, The Buzzcocks, Stiff Little Fingers... even the band London!

Let us know if your P'Baby has a rad punk name in the comments - we love seeing all the cool crazy things you call your littles!

Punk's Not Dead - It's Alive & Well at Psychobaby!

Punk rock clothes for kids? Why not? You'd have to be DAFT not to like these PUNK styles! Whether you're a punk rock papa or a mohawked mama, we think you'll dig these cool styles for your little Sid or Nancy (minus the craziness, of course). We think it's never to early to steer your Psychobaby away from the Wiggles and Bananas in Pajamas of the world, and down a more rockin' path - one that leads straight to bands like the Ramones, the Clash, the Descendents and Green Day!

So spike your little one's hair and grab some mosh-pit-worthy clothing to complete the outfit - like our Electric Rock One-Piece or this Mini Skulls Dress from Sourpuss, perfect for a punk princess. Rock out with a few of our fave punk songs while you shop our collection of punk rock gifts! 

OMG! New Ramones Tutus, Skully Dresses and More!

Sourpuss Clothing's new pieces for spring are a little bit vintage, a little bit rock and roll, and totally OMG-worthy! Sourpuss tricked out these adorable styles by updating them with punky prints, retro details, and a whole lot of rock and roll attitude. Little punkettes will love the Ramones tutu one-piece, it's perfect for cool crawlers and three-chord toddlers. Stylin' dudes will look sharp cruisin' the playground in a new flat cap or a rockabilly button-down. Our favorites right now are Sourpuss' new Mini Skulls Dresses - their combination of girlie puff-sleeves and edgy skull print is the perfect match for a sweet and sassy Psychobaby!

So wear one of these new Sourpuss styles to dinner at Grandma's house... that is, if Grandma likes to turn it up to 11 (and not because she's hard of hearing)!

The Other F Word

Recently a movie has come out that caught all of our attentions, here at Psychobaby.  The Other F Word. This documentary examines how some of our greatest Punk icons have switched gears from breaking bottles, and slam dancing on stage, to changing diapers and carpooling.  The foul-mouthed, inked-up rockers struggle to adapt to the pains of parenthood.  Punkers like Flea, Tony Hawk, Fat Mike, Mark Hoppus, and Lars Frederiksen provide us with situational comedy and inspiring testimonials. 

A list of theaters screening the movie is available on their website.   Here's the official trailer: 

Just so your little one can feel like a rockstar too, we provided some of our favorite Punk Rock inspired gifts, outfits, and style tips below.
