It's pretty funny that named arguments were, for a long time, a feature present only in Objective-C of all the languages I tried (and I tried many).
It was one of the features of Objective-C I liked and I missed in any other language. I also think they were one of the reasons many developers disliked the language.
When Swift was introduced, it got named parameters from Objective-C and now they are getting more "mainstream", entering in a language much more widespread than the former two.
