Ugly names...u.g.l.y.

bigbootyjudi · October 2012

You ain't got no alibi.

Tell me a name or a few that you think are ugly...I'm talking every time you hear it, you think, "Why?!"

Oh and if someone happens to list your name, don't get too offended. I mean, you guys can hate Amanda...IDGAF. I hate it too.

I'm sitting again today, so entertain me.

And no one say La.dashsign.a/Ladasha. Obviously, anyone not on meth would think that's terrible.

Brayden. Ick. Reminds me of "bray" as in, what a donkey does.

My cousin just had a boy and named him Byron. It's fine if you're a 65 year old man, I just don't get it for a baby. It doesn't quite qualify as a "cool" old fashioned name.

klp28 · October 2012

Haha isn't it funny how everyone's taste is so different?! I love Beatrice and if I ever completely went off the deep end and had another girl baby, that would be her name.

I loathe all of the aiden, braden, etc names.

rp-chicago-mom · October 2012

The "son" names for girls excluding Allison. They mean son of so and so.

Many of the NFL football players have terrible names....

AprilAngie · October 2012

I hate smoosh made up names. Can't think if any right now but you all know what I mean

Crossingfingers · October 2012

I have a couple more... Devin, not sure why, but I hate it. And Axel.. My cousin just named her baby this. I don't get it... And there is a little girl named Druzella in my son's kindergarten class- why, why, why, would you do that to your child?

ShariJenn · October 2012

I'm sad my kid has an ugly name.

Sorry! It's not that there is anything wrong with it, it's just not my style. But I'm sure there are MANY people who think Gunnar (my 3 year old's name) is very redneck- and I'm one of them

Hortense

Olga

Gordon

Abner

Jedediah

thepretzelchick · October 2012

Any normal name + "de," "le" or "la," like Sean = Desean or Michael = Lamichael. Really? Just name your kid Sean or Michael.

Anything ending in "aden"...Braden, Jaden, Caden

Same for "aley" and the like...Haley, Kaley, Bailey

Taylor. It's too girly now for boys but it's still too boyish to really fit girls. Can we just keep it as a last name?

Miley. No, just no.

Persephone. Do your research, people, and do NOT name your child Persephone! This is more common than it should be. Same for Lillith.

Evelyn. Unless your daughter is born with white hair, polyester pants and a plate of cookies, there's no reason she should be named Evelyn. Ever.

Names that aren't the common spelling (like the go-to spelling that first pops in people's minds)...like Emmalee, Madyson, Erik, Jakob, Ashlee...as someone whose name is always misspelled and will always be misspelled, have mercy on your children, please. Do you know how irritating it is to have to spell it out and still have to correct people after I've spelled it out? I prefer the way Jaime is spelled over Jamie, especially since it changes the meaning, but it's still annoying to have to constantly correct people. Have mercy.

LindsayDesigner · October 2012

My old neighbor just named her baby Indiana. Her DAUGHTER is named Indiana. NMS.

I really dislike Braxton mostly due to Braxton Hicks.

I really don't understand unique spellings of common names. What is the point? LynZee still sounds just like Lindsay. If you really want to be different pick an old name or one that isn't common. We wanted something unique so we looked at our family trees and now we have our little Wilhelmina.

This was my husband's top pick for Gunnar... which is why he is Gunnar- it was the ONLY name he could come up with that I though wasn't terrible... The other names he liked were Rock, and Jager.. Seriously.

latnprincess · October 2012

I know someone who named their boy Broxton or Broxson, something like that. So weird.

cmb2 · October 2012

Uriah ... the newest baby boy to appear in my facebook newsfeed...cute kid though!

How random. Evelyn is a fantastic name! I think it's timeless.

Kasi80 · October 2012

Henry. Reminds me of a shriveled up old man.

JayandEmm · October 2012

Bodie. Reminds me of a dog.
Bronx.
Tallulah.
Jasper.

These have all come up on my Facebook in the last month or two.

Manda-Kay · October 2012

I think it's cute to name your baby a color or president, but having 2 of those in the same name is overkill.

Example: Carson Kennedy, Violet Mauve

Yes these are real people.

Also: kids named after characters from movies or books

lovebug33 · October 2012

Girls with boy names. I don't think girls should be called Ryan, Alex, Charlie. Leave those for boys.

Any name that is made up and nobody can tell what flavor of baby it is.

Gender ambiguous names, even if they aren't made up. Although, I never thought my daughter's name was gender ambiguous and apparently it is .

babyike · October 2012

Lexus, Bentley, Mercedes, etc (car names as first names, just can't stand them)

McKayla and any spelling variation of that name (just NMS)

oprastr · October 2012

The "Aden" names. I had a kindergarten class that year that had a Braiden, Cayden, Aiden, and Hayden in it. I could never remember who was which.

shakinros · October 2012

Bertha
Martha
Gunnar, sorry pp!
Jagger

Using nouns as names. I'm looking at you, celebrities! Blanket, Apple, Sailor, etc.

rels09 · October 2012

Harlow. It sounds like harlot.

valeriej6 · October 2012

One of my friends just named her son 'Karston'...wow

LIke PP said, girls with boy names bother me...Finley for a little girl?!

HoneyBunn24 · October 2012

Girls names: Bailey, Jessica, Logan

Boys names: Jesse, Damien, Michael, Bailey

I have personal reasons why I don't like the names, normally names don't bother me...but these names remind me of people in my life whom are no longer in my life for a reason.

I would never name my child after a fruit/veggie (apple) or an inanimate object (Blanket)

Ryker. Makes me think of law and order/rikers island prison.nbsp;

Ha! Reminds me of commander Riker. Nice guy, decent first officer, terrible beard. JeanLuc, on the other hand... sexygrowl make it so.

Haha, I just named my little girl Evelyn! I've heard this before, though. And I've heard others name their babies names I think are old-ladyish but they think are pretty.

I actually first liked the name because of the movie "Pearl Harbor"...that's the woman protagonist's name, and I guess her portrayal made it seem sweet and beautiful to me.

Oh, and "The Mummy," the chick in that was named Evelyn, called Evie (we call our little one Evie.)

I don't like Kiley, Keisha, Keely...I guess I don't like K names

klmcguire · October 2012

My cousin named her girl Ryah

Rhomonk · October 2012

Lennon Jagger.

We get it, you like the Beatles and the Rolling Stones.

Plus, Lennon just sounds like lemon to me. YICK.

AutumnLeaves2 · October 2012

For girls: Judy, Paula, Nancy (I'm talking for LITTLE girls...I saw a 2 year old named Nancy and it was just creepy)

For boys: Gordon, Lawrence, Douglas

byrne15 · October 2012

Henry, Fred, Doug, Craig, Bob

yvdukana · October 2012

I hate most names, that's why it took us forever to pick a name for DS, and even now I'm not thrilled with it. His middle name is after my late grandfather and I go back and forth all the time if I like it or not. I also hate most ethnic names. I vetoed almost every name my DH suggested, common and classic or out there and unique. I don't really like our first names either. Guess I'm a name snob.

Examples of names I would puke over:

Tiffany, Brittany, Amanda, Jennifer, Christopher, Timothy, Gregory, Craig, Bertha, Thelma, Janice, Janet, Melvin, Martin, the list goes on and on...

I have always loved Charlie for a girls name! Am I the only one?

my first thought, too. Number One!

Tula214 · October 2012

My baby has a name people don't like. Jayson. I added the Y because I hate the way it,looks without it. It's the only boy name I found acceptable for my son... And people have misspelled and killed the,pronunciation of my whole name since I was born. I'm over it.

I don't mind Aiden because its a nice biblical name.. its just so overused now. I don't like jayden, laden, whatevs. Alexandra, alexis, anything like that,I just don't,like. There's more but,I can't think.
