The birth of Penelope Scotland

I try not to care about the Kardashians. I really do.
But when I heard that Kourtney Kardashian and her husband Scott Disick just named her daughter Penelope Scotland, well, I couldn’t help but take notice.
Is Scotland an appropriate name for a child – especially given by a non-Scottish couple who probably couldn’t locate Scotland on a map? Is Scotland an appropriate name for a girl? Am I wrong for wondering why they couldn’t just stay local and go with a name like Hollywood, Westwood or Burbank? What do you think?

I think they should have named her Penelope Weed. Actually, no, because the poor town doesn’t need more grief.
I bet they thought Scotland was The Most Clever thing ever, because it sounds like the dad’s name of Scott.
