The "dash" is suppose to be read literally. So the name A-a is pronounced Adasha. I did'nt know you could use characters in names until I heard this one at a preschool!!!!
Which is a shame, because Adasha is actually a very pretty name. I could see it on a little girl.
* Some friends of ours named their son Angus.? Middle name?? Rib.? NOT kidding!? Angus Rib, folks.
* Also, my Mom suggested we name our daughter Milagros.? That means "miracle" in Spanish.? I seriously laughed out loud at her.? Yes, our baby is a miracle, but come on Mom!?
Alright...your turn!!
My husband's middle name is Angus....he is from Scotland, though, where the name is as common as Michael or David is here.?
Busby Berkley Jukebox Jezebel. For a little girl. She goes by Busby Berkley. And this isn't an urban legend. Her mother is friends with my sister-in-law. And it was further confirmed true when the family moved into my area, and while I was doing student teaching, she was in the same school as me. She's named after a Broadway choreographer and song I think.
My sister-in-law also went to church with a woman with a bunch of kids with crazy names. They're actually still friends and the lady just had another kid. It's the combo of names that makes them strange. Ruby Buttercup, Trixie Petunia Pineapple, Superstar5 Jemima, and lastly Sassafras Sapphire Sophronia. Yep. Seriously.
I went to grade school with a girl named Cincinnati. She had a younger sister with a totally normal name. We asked her why her parents named her that. She said they just liked the name. She transfered in mid-year and when our teacher introduced her to the class on her first day he called her Philadelphia!
I am greek too and my parents are the regular annoying name ur kid by our parents names. uhhh no. my first son is gabriel and middle name constantine after my dad. but there is no way i would ever name my kid constantine for the first name.
Just wanted to say I work with a woman (a teacher) with the first name Sh*thead (Shi - theed). She is Indian. It's not an urban legend, it's a real name.
I don't usually find too many names "ugly" but relatives of mine just named their baby girl Vonya. Sorry if anyone likes this name, but I just can't take the name seriously!
I once dated a guy who wanted to name a son Cologeno (pronounced Cole-O-jen-O). He may have loved the name, but it reminded me of a cross between cologne and bologna!
Re: Fun Thread: What is the ugliest baby name you've heard?

Gwen Stefani's youngest son--Zuma Nesta! Poor kid. Sounds like a new-age soft drink.
Not a fan of Sparrow James Midnight either. He's going to get his a$s handed to him in middle school.

I know a Chevelle as well. I love the name.
After all, we are naming our son Ford!
Cant wait to hear the comments on that name. ( not that I care what anyone else thinks) My 5 year olds name is Gage.
And I LOVE Harper. What are your choices for this baby! Sounds to me like we like the interesting names.
My nephews name is Diesel.
