Crazy kids names in real life

kfry22

Pregnancy insomnia has hit. So I'm gonna start a thread....

What are some of the craziest names you have heard in real life for people's kids?

We know a family with three boys named Fox, Jaguar, and Tiger. I also know a little girl named Jornee. Two names for boys that I know and can't stand are McCoy and a Coy.

Share away ladies!

Twin boys named Orangello and Lemongello...yep Orange Jell-o and Lemon Jell-o.

I taught a student named Dra'gon. First day of school I called roll and said "dragon", which prompted him to let me know in NO uncertain terms that it's dray-gone. I really wanted to have a talk with his mother about her choices...

I also know a little boy named Fox. Through work I have come across a little boy named Sir and one named Eminem. Those are probably the strangest I can think of off the top of my head.

Kid at the doctor's office named Major, friend's daughter friends with a kid named Boss.

My sister is a nurse in OB and she had parents name their child Meconium. They thought it sounded beautiful. Who does that?!?

Nukke

Popsicle.  Her sister had a crazy name too, but I can't remember.

I had a student this year named Kortavious.
I have a cousin named Princess.
Edit: words are hard

Little boy named Dune Danger is definitely the weirdest I can think of.

I dated a guy from a really small town and they were big on different names. He had friends named Easy, Branch, and Silver. There was more but those are the only ones I can think of right now.

I subbed at a school where there was a boy named Sir and his brother was Mister!

There's a boy in my sons class named maverick. I also know an adult man whose name is harmony.

I know a little girl named Falcon. I used to substitute teach and there was a girl named Stetson in one of my classes.

Oh man, some of the names in my area. When working as a cashier I had a lot of WIC checks come through with interesting names on them. Gonoherra (Gun- AIR-ra) and Syphillis (Sa-pie-LESS) were my favorites. I had a boss once named Mystry Misty Moonbeam Faith and she had a sister named Rachel. Not sure how that ended up.

I went to middle school with a Bud Wiser (first and last name) and dh was talking to someone who names her kids Thor and Lightening.

I know someone who almost named her daughter first name Allana last name Dicks....poor girl would have got teased so much. They ended up with Alexis instead.

Barella...
Ryden....
Made up names just irk me, those have been the strangest I e heard in real life though.

Working at a Drs office I come
across a lot, there were music teachers with quads named Harmony, Lyric, Melody and Rhapsody....on their own some aren't bad, but as a group not so sure. We also had triplets Holly Molly and Dolly last name Wood.

I work in a family court, so I see all kinds of strange ones - A'million, twins Lord and Saviour, Latrene (pronounced latrine), La-a (pronounced La-dash-ah), Sir Lancelot, Lastone (this was baby #8 in a family and, for the record, was NOT the last one...), Awehsome, Amazein' Grace, siblings Liberty and Justice ... I could seriously go on and on.

heytallmama

@AGMeeks -- I've also met an Awesome! that's definitely in the top strangest names for me. About to get an enrollment list for a summer academy- can't wait to scope out the names for some gems!

tbasinski

Candy Cane. Mary Christmas. I kid you not.

From college, Misty Rain. Also a girl from elementary school was named Princess. I went to school with a girl named Robin. Not bad on it's own, but her last name was Robinson. Robin Robinson. Unfortunate.

Faheva Anaday... Because the baby girl was 2 weeks late so she took "forever and a day" to arrive. Seriously.

Cookie and Lavender are the craziest I can think of right now.

Yeah, everyone knows someone who knows these twins. It's an urban myth.

I feel like I'm reading about storybook characters!! Geez louise! My favorite so far is Mystry Misty Moonbeam Faith who had a sister named Rachel. Oh the sibling rivalry!

We have two kids in our area named Lucky and Seven.

I have a cousin named holly wood! I didn't think that was a thing anyone but my crazy aunt did!

I know a girl that named her daughter Zayleigh. Another who named her boys Maverick and Archer.

My mother in law is an elementary school teacher in a very low income urban area. She has had some gems!

From two different non-english speaking families she had baby girl and female (fem-all-ee). They both just went with the default not understanding what it meant.

She has also had Obama and her sister Mandela.

My sister is a teenager and also has some good ones. Her friend's name is Wednesday and she has a brother Pugsley.

I went to school with a Remington Steel. And recently met a baby named Sunny Rae.

last14real

I know someone who just named their baby Monty and I feel like if he doesn't constantly wear a tiny white and blue sailor suit or own a yacht that his name just won't fit:(

saraking437

I remembered some more. Siblings: Binky George Washington, Tyty, Sassy, and Tetris (like the video game). A girl from high school named Barbie Skipper. 

Also at my nephew's preschool there is a little boy named Mateo (Muh-tay-oh). Not really a weird name in itself, but none of his little classmates can pronounce it and they call him "Potato." I thought the poor boy's name was Potato forever.

I wish, just once, a ridiculous name post wouldn't contain the urban legend names that were born as racist jokes.

I've heard of a La-a; apparently you pronounce the dash, so it's "Ladasha."

Oh, also a baby names Cortana Yvette (apparently Cortana is a character in Halo, and that's how the parents met or something, at a party), and they wanted to be able to nickname her Corvette by combining the names. That was one of those that I couldn't quite hide my shock right at first. And where it doesn't seem like the parents really thought about their baby as a person who had to grow up with that name.

I know a little girl named Rayne, and I used to have a female customer whose name was pronounced Chandelier. I have no idea how it was spelled, though.

The ones that stick out for me are Abcde (Absidee), Rainbow, Cinderella, and Nevaeh. I also can't stand the name Destiny...it's a carnival cruise ship not a kid's name. Just my personal preference.

I taught a little girl name Special. That's not too bad, but her last name was Payne.

You have to be careful with last names.

clau0611

Working at a doctors office a kid named pistol!!

One of DH's friends is Justin Payne. I thought it was his artist name- he is a tattoo artist and piercer. Kinda fitting, right? Nope, that's his real name.

Thank goodness my cousins, whose last name is Payne, decided on Bradley and Trevyn.
