Regarding Grey, it's possible it's an extrapolation of Greyson, which was super popular a few years ago. Trendy names tend to work that way: first Aidan got big, then Hayden/Jayden/Braden etc. Or how Addison got popular and then other names that could be nicknamed Addie followed.
I always wanted to have a daughter named Adele, but between all the little Addies out there and the singer, that's not happening.

I loved Adele way before she got popular (starting when she was on SNL in 2008 promoting her first album 19). And I LOVE Adele as a name and would totally have used it. Unfortunately now that she's gotten super popular and Adele/Addie is rising in popularity as a name I can't use it. :-(

Did no one say they "knew" an Orangejello and Lemonjello? Wow. Was waiting for that one.
I mentioned it on page 1 and how it's clearly just a racist urban legend, like La-a. I'm sorry, but I don't believe anyone who says they've known people by those names and I kinda assume they're either gullible or a racist.
Welp, call me gullible, or call me internet illiterate (because I pretty much am), but I am certainly not a racist. Let's not all beat a dead horse, or throw around assumptions on the La-a thing. Truth is, people name their kids some weird shit, so it's not that crazy to think this would be real. I mean c'mon... how about the people who named their kid Hashtag. And they wanted to actually just use the # sign.

People do use terrible names all the time but there's a reason why nobody questions it when someone claims to know a Cash Money, Tequila, or even fucking Abcde. It's because those names actually happen. La-a, lemonjello, oranjello and the like don’t. They are constantly brought up in Internet conversations, far more prevalent then they could actually be used in real life. I garauntee if you search for similar threads (bad baby names) you'll see one of them brought up in it.
Personally, if I was unknowingly repeating or saying something that had racist undertones (like the origin of La-a does) I'd want someone to tell me, because that isn't how I want to present myself.
Anyway, in the spirit of bad names I have a Facebook friend who named their kid Axton Cash.
I'm sure his parents thought they were giving him a strong, traditional name, but you gotta think famous race car driver Richard Trickle didn't have the easiest time of it growing up. Seriously, Dick Trickle?
Some of these names are crazy! I can't imagine growing up with a really difficult and confusing name. I have a hard enough time with the fact that my last name is hyphenated.
PS: Just a word of warning to everyone. The periods in the middle of the name don't prevent google from bringing them up. Google tends to compensate for things like this. For example, if you search the name in the OP, without the period, it's the second result.
Re: Bad baby name
Weirdest ive seen was "Lil Feller"
I read it out loud as Rain or Shine.

Also, I hate the "eigh" endings where they don't belong. Seriousleigh. Just stahp.
Edited to confuse Google. Hopefully
