For Mobile users: Your "WTF was I thinking" favorite names from the past...

I've always liked names. I loved to name dolls, future children, etc and I still do. When you were younger (grade school, high school, college) and thought about baby names, were there any that you look back and think "WTF was I thinking?"

If you have any, spill...

When I was really little, all my dolls were named Cindy. Not a horrible name but why all of them. LOL!

In college, while dating my DH, my favorite name was Breelee, said Bree-leigh, which I made up. So glad I never ever decided

For a few years as a teen I loved kr8tive spellings, I thought it made the name unique. Glad I had more sense by the time I was married and a baby was possible! Since then I have very seriously considered naming a daughter Shenandoah but it's been cross

heaven. I read a book and me and my bff at the time were going to name our babies after the main character.. um, nope.

Annalai- pronounced Anna-lie but now just makes me think anally

Camerine- for a girl, pronounced Cameron

I have a slew because I loved naming my kids while playing Oregon Trail! But a few pretty bad ones were Clairissa (because I wanted it pronounced CLAIRE-rissa) and Caden-Michael (because I even loved double names back then and the -Aden trend was just beg

When my sister was born I begged my mom to spell her name, Emma, yooniquely.
Amma
Ammah
Ema
Emah
Emmah

I think that's all I came up with. shudder

Sapphire was a name I really liked in middle school. Also, Temple, which I came up with all by myself, to my great pride. I have no idea what inspired either of those. Apparently I wanted my younger cousin to be named Ashla when I was about four. Not Ashl

When I was a teen I liked Laiylah. It is definitely speshul.

Disneygeek77 · March 2013

Jezebel. I am 100% serious. When I was 11, I thought the name Jezebel Louise was the most beautiful name ever and told everyone that one day I was going to name my daughter Jezebel Louise. Yes I knew it had bad connota

I used to like Raelynn. I thought Rae was a cute NN and wanted a longer version, so I threw a lynn on the end. I

kendra223 · March 2013

When I was really young.. like 4 or 5 yrs old, I made up a name for my cabbage patch doll. Baressa... I have no idea where I came up with it.

When I was a young teen, I liked names like Destiny

My 2 yr old daughter named her c

GingerCat20 · March 2013

When I was little I LOVED the name Integra. Like the car. I thought it was the most beautiful name. I even tried to do internet research (back in the beginning of the internets) to see if there were real people with that name.

Sarah52Beth · March 2013

Skylar nms anymore

Charleigh for a girl still absolutely love it ,but my SO was none too impressed, so when I got a cat a couple years ago, I named her that!

MiaMyPuggle · March 2013

I named my stuffed troll dolls Conrad and Constance. Of course bc they were twins! I bought them at the same time!! Needed to have similiar letters!
Felicity, Bennett and Beckett were my tops choices in high school. I wanted different names!

Brilee and Everleigh. Yikes.
I still think Everleigh is pretty and I know someone who named her daughter

dressandtie · March 2013

When I was in elementary school, I loved the name Kaleigh Rider. Kaleigh wasn't even going to be pronounced Kaylie. It was going to be like ca-lay, like lay down.

Around the end of middle school I began liking good, socially acceptable names, lik

PepVeroni · March 2013

I guess this isn't that bad, but when I was under 10 or 12 my first daughter was going to be named Sharon. I was so obsessed with that name for no apparent reason that I can recall.

when i was in my early teens (so this was like... mid nineties) i thought the names madison and mackenzie were so beautiful. now... i don't hate them, but they are SO overdone and just... so overdone. not a fan at all anym

Chelscole · March 2013

When I was like 4 I really liked Lulu I named all my dolls that. In middle school it was Topanga. I actually found a list I made in highschool the other day boy name Morrison or Jude and girls names PaytonLee Anne lol wtf I also liked Tesla and Journey. A

nyki06 · March 2013

I grew up in a biker family so I always wanted to name my future child Harley. It didn't help that I always watched Days of Our Lives with my grandma and there was a lady on there named Harley. I know a few Harleys now and I don't think it's the worst nam

Griffin, Duncan, and Alistair. Still like Alistair, but more of a GG. Griffin and Duncan...blech.

stahlop · March 2013

I thought the name Krystee was just awesome. I loved the unique spelling. I also 'made up' Braea pronounced Braya. I really liked Brae but thought it was incomplete sounding, so Braea would've been the full name. Thanks goodness I grew out of that.

BlueRidge8 · March 2013

In college I loved Bennett....for a girl.

*shudder*

kjgilhoo · March 2013

In high school I was all over the name Mya.

When SO and I first started dating (2002) if we had a boy he was going to be named Noah Taylor or Taylor Noah and twin girls would be named Anna and Stella after our mother's middle names.

Anna wa

alittlejarephanie · March 2013

I loved the name Mercedes Valentine. It's still beautiful...if you're French. In the US naming a child that would be an atrocity.

Hero (heh-ro rather than hee-ro) remains a guilty pleasure as a girl's name, but again, standard English wreck

SaraSKC · March 2013

As a pre-teen, Destiny or Crystal. Definitely NMS now.

Late teen/early 20s I loved Lily. I still love it, but 10 years later Lily is far too popular for me.

LadyXaverian · March 2013

My favorite girl names from when I was a kid myself included Cassandra , Brittany, and Kimber. I "WTF" Brittany and Kimber because Brittany was after Alvin's girlfriend on Alvin and the Chipmunks and Kimber was from Jem and the Holograms lol!! As a tee
