This name...seriously

yoshea · September 2015

Making class lists for the school year and I came across this gem which just begged to be shared.
La-a
How do you pronounce that you say? Well of course it would be
Ladasha. You pronounce the dash.

1) there's a whole thread dedicated to ridiculous names... please make posts like this there rather than starting a new thread.
2) this is an urban legend... i too fell for it once as it was told to me... but alas, it is false

ashleyandely · September 2015

lol oh c'mon.

ecwk · September 2015

Oh Jesus.

Fancy sharing real, photographic evidence of this student's name?

N1col3 · September 2015

It's true. I had a patient once and this was her first name. It's a scary thing

Scornelius · September 2015

If you have any proof, I would really love to see it! I know this started out as an urban legend, but it wouldn't surprise me if life eventually imitated art.

Then wouldn't HIPAA prevent you from mentioning names?

tvnewsgal · September 2015

What's sad is that I can give legit examples of names that are far more ridiculous and trashy than the made up Ladasha. Why do people keep perpetuating this lie?

CharmBombExplosion · September 2015

Please stop. This is not funny, it's just annoying.

claireloSC · September 2015

Are you sure it wasn't spelled Lemon Jello? C'mon.

missemmawoodhouse · September 2015

Pic or it didn't happen.

Why do so many claim to know a la-a? I was at my son's MyGym class and the topic of names came up and if the instructors ever see crazy names. Immediately one of them mentioned La-a!

Same number of people claim to have met a Shithead... Which, btw, does not even register on the social security list, which has every name used more than 5 times in a year. I fell for it years ago, had a coworker at a day care swear she had met a boy named Shithead.. NOPE! I've yet to see any photographic proof of any of these names.

Ladasha is an actual name on the list, but that does not equal La-a.... It started out as a racist joke, and has turned into an urban legend.

I swear i know 3 of them...my mother's sisters niece's 3rd cousin on her husband's side said so.

There's a couple of reasons.

1. People like to pull other peoples legs, but they're lazy. Instead of coming up with something else (Like Axton Cash) they use something they've already heard.

2. People are gullible. We don't THINK our friends, cousins, coworkers, etc are going to lie to us (and they too might just be parroting it back) but they do.

3. People are racist. I really don't need to elaborate that one.

Elsa1984 · September 2015

At some point, someone is going to actually use the name, and we will no longer be able to point out that it is a urban legend!

Sadly I know a la-a in Kansas. As far as I can tell her mom only named her that because of said urban legend. Coffeyville Kansas breeds some of the world's worst names. I hated getting my step daughters classmate list, though it always have my husband a good laugh

I don't believe you without a picture on an official document, but I do know that Coffeyville is where the Google marker defaults as the center of the US on Maps.

This name...seriously
