I was thinking more along the lines of
@baby_names = BabyName.find( :all, :conditions => { user_id =>
current_user.id } )
to get all of them, or

@baby_name = BabyName.find(params[:id], :conditions => { user_id =>
current_user.id }) if params[:id]
if you want to get just one.

In addition if you use a named scope then you don't have to keep
putting the conditions in.  Also you might like to look at the
find_by_... methods.  Have a look at the rails guide on the Active
Record Query Interface at http://guides.rubyonrails.org/
