Baby Names

Amazyn, Bison, Chaos, and Draco...

And that's just for starters... Apparently, there are a lot of parents with HORRIBLE taste in names living in Alberta!

And what does everyone think about Feenix, Cinderella, and Twinkle?

    Apparently, there are a lot of parents with HORRIBLE taste in names living in Alberta!

    Sadly, there are a lot of people with horrible taste in names living everywhere, I think.

    As for Feenix -- when seeing that name, I make assumptions that the parents don't know how to spell.  Ditto for Lynkyn (mentioned in the article).

    The names in the "one-of-a-kind" paragraph are.... interesting.  Morpheous is probably from parents who are fans of the Matrix, and Kal-El is a reference to Superman, but most of the others listed in the same paragraph I'm at odds to identify a reason why the parents would give that name to their child (Peanut?  Twinkle?  Chaos?).

  • I had a customer call me Cinderella once and I almost kicked him in the balls. I can't imagine having that name for life. I think it is kind of demeaning actually considering the premise of Cinderella was that she was basically treated like a servent by her family.
    A lot of years and a million tears finally led me to you.
    After 7 years trying to concieve, 3 failed IUIs and 2 failed IVFs, my third IVF was a success!
    My Christmas baby turned into a turkey bird! Dillon Richard was born at 34 weeks, 5 days on November 28, 2009 after 10 weeks on bedrest for preeclampsia.

  • I was joking with friends that I was going to name one of our twins Draco b/c we thought we should stick with a Harry Potter theme (kidding of course.)  And now I see people actually do that.  Yuck

  • People amaze me when it comes to some names.  Why would you name your child Chaos?  That just sounds like a recipe for diaster as they get older. 

    From miscarriages, a diagnosis of a bicornuate uterus, and fibroid removal surgery...It's been quite the journey but it was all well worth it. Baby Birthday Ticker Ticker

  • I know a little girl named Cinderella. She doesn't go by Cindy or Ella ? everyone calls her Cinderella.

    She has three sisters: Ariel, Belle, and Aurora.

    I'm not kidding and this is not an urban legend ? the older 3 were students at the school in California where I used to teach and baby Aurora was born at the end of my first school year.

  • I know someone who wanted  to name a child Cinderella once.  Of course the child was her younger sister and she was 4yo.  Some people should have to take a test before naming their children!

    PAL/PGAL Welcome

  • Oh Cinderella...seriosuly these parents make me sad! Why would you ever name your child that?! Now I have the Cinderella song stuck in my head "cinderelly cinderelly!!"

  • Wowza!  Those are awful!!!
  • I live in Alberta too, and I know some people with horrible names.  I have a friend named Seven (yes his real name) and his sons are Jubei and Felix (Felix isn't bad, but it make me think of Felix the Cat) . My sister has a friend who named her daughter Tequila Haze and if her and her husband have a son they want to name him Rye (mom's name is Brandy so I guess they just want to stick with the alcohol theme.) I thought those names were bad until I read some of those in that article, there really ought to be a law against giving children horrible names.
