Baby Names

Worst name ever... poor child.

An ex of mine's dad was an inner-city school teacher.  He would come across "unique" names all the time.  This one is just cruel though.  He had a girl student named Shithead.  Pronounced shi-TAIDE.  The awfulness is astounding.

  • That's HORRIBLE! In our province, I think the government is putting restrictions on certain baby names. Hopefully this would be one of them!
  • A guy with the same name lived on my street growing up. He was Indian and his family pronounced it "shuh-THEED." Horrible name!!

    Just a heads-up: someone on here will tell you that that name is just an urban legend. I completely believe you, especially since I knew one!

  • I also think that it's a popular spelling in India.  I worked with a man named Fortune Shithole.  His first name was pronounced just how it's spelled, but his last name was pronounced si-TOLL-ee.  He was the Help Desk guy, so we were always calling him for one thing or another.

    BTW - I believe you too since I've seen people with similar names and spellings.

    Haha... thanks.  I wish it was an urban legend!  Unfortunately I saw his dads class roster (because we didn't believe him) & this name was there in black and white!   I never thought about the fact that the kid could have been from another culture where Shithead isn't an actual word.  I don't think that was the case though.

  • Are you from Memphis??? My husband was a football coach in Memphis, and they had a kid named shithead pronounces just like you said. I think that this kid was african-american though. I clicked on this blog thinking the name couldn't be worse the shithead- funny that it actually was the same name!
  • That is just sad.

  • Why, that would be Ladasha, of course.  My cousin's uncle's neighbor's dog groomer had a daughter named this.  I swear!

    If you had any idea how many times people swear to this gem, you would understand why. If this many people actually knew someone with this name, it would be in the Social Security Administration's Top 10.

    I've never heard anyone else claim to know this name before... obviously if it's on Snopes someone has!  Who knows, maybe my ex's dad pulled a fast one on us, I'll never know.

  • OMG, and you've been on the nest HOW LONG?  I see this post every week.
  • YES. my moms best friend is a?neonatal?nurse and a mother wanted to name her baby that same thing. she had to call social services. another lady named her 7 kids all feelings she was feeling during labor. (Orgasm,?Ecstasy, etc!) nuts huh!?!
    Married my BEST FRIEND on December 1, 2007. Started TTC in March 2008. Found out we were expecting our first child in October 2008 - but had a m/c in December 2008 - resulting in a d&e. Met with a RE in May 2009 and set a plan - but conceived unexpectedly on our own! Our precious little Sophia was born on February 9, 2010! Lilypie Third Birthday tickers
