Geeks of the Twelfth Century

From Wikipedia's entry on Abelard and Heloise:

"Héloïse became pregnant and was sent by Abélard to Brittany, where she gave birth to a son she named Astrolabe after the scientific instrument."

What would be the modern equivalent? Naming your kid "Large Hadron Collider" or something?
