Bad Baby Names.

yoyopez · March 2014

my mom is oldest of 10 and while they don't have horrible names all 5 girls are named mary and the 5 boys eugene. they all have different middle names.

i had a customer at a bank i worked in who had 5 children i believe and named the 4 girls after disney princesses. i can't remember the exact ones but definitely cindrerella and ariel. her boy was named christopher robin.

Their was a girl that use to come into my work who's name was La'-ah (ladasha) and when we would call her name and someone would get it wrong she'd say "the dash ain't silent!"

I also went to school with three girls name Ka.tz, Tyg.er, and Koug.ar.

You guys should read/watch Freakanomics. Apparently there are roughly 200 ways to spell "unique" and everyone wants a you-neek name for their child these days.

I work in a NICU and have seen it all, and have learned not to judge in poor taste. My old favorite was "Da'Money" but we recently got a mother set on Lady Gorgeous. We talked her out of it, so now she is Taelor Gorgeous, because god forbid she spell Taylor "normally." Regardless, baby is a doll and I respect the mom and I wish her the best life. (I just pictured scenarios...15yo, boy walks up to girl with friends, "hey hey gorgeous," "oh hey," "no, not you, her." Oops, her bad.)

I see tons of Heaven's, Naveah's, Miracle, Lil' ___, Da'___, La'___. It is what it is I guess.

My dr had a patient name the baby A-a. Adasha. Worse than La-A.

One name trend I HATE is combining the parents' names to come up with a new u-neek name!
@mel689 I keep trying to get DH on board with this because our daughter would be Rashley. (rash'ley? Rahshlee?) So simple. So elegant.

So...rashy.

@theresat858‌ Xrash'ei. The x is silent, natch.

Man, there are some gems here. I met a woman named Cinnamon. A girl I know named her son Fig - at first I thought it was awful, but it kind of grew on me. Probably because he's so cute. Also know a baby named Tiger Lily, which I secretly kind of love, but would never do that to my child.

FN Wynter LN Flurry.... and of course she was born in January during a blizzard! You just can't make this shit up!

I went to school with two sisters, salami (like the cold cut) and piles (pronounced just how it's spelled). Also went to school with a little boy named Hammie.

I work with a woman named H.onni B.ear. She is Native American and I'm all for cultural names....but come on.

My cousin's daughter is named C.larksyn (after her grandfather Clark). She is the cutest thing ever but I just don't get it.

I love this thread! My favorite names so far have been Felony and Da'Money. LOLZ

Friends named their daughter Zuzu, after the character in It's a Wonderful Life.

La-ia pronounced Ladashia, yes, you say the "dash"! this girl was very rude to me when I didn't know that...

Placenta (mom heard it in delivery and thought it was so pretty, even after they explained what it was!)

and names that are ok an their own but bad together: siblings colby and brie (I guess their parents really like cheese?)

ETA- I am a teacher...I get 120 good (bad?) options every year for this post...these are just the ones that stick out in my mind!

ETA again, I just have to add I went to high school with: Misty Hymen

Oh geez, I can name quite a few...Cricket, Lotus and Egypt. I like "trendy" names- but not that trendy!
