   Her dh and kindred spirits should be lined up against a wall and pelted with flowers, yeah flowers, that’ll show em to get all looney with their kids names.

   My uncle works at a hospital and he told me that this one lady whom had just given birth, overheard the doctor use the word “Macomium” and thought that it was pretty so that is what she named her child. Unfortunately, it means “baby’s first sh*t in medical terminology. Hopefully this kid won’t be going to med school. 😛

   21. anything with oyde
   22. anything realated to a cleanser. Lysol and bleach are not names. I know someone who WAS named bleach.
   23. anything related to a condom… your child will hate you.

   What about Penn Jillete’s kids

   Its something like:

   his daughter: Moxi Crimefighter
   and his son: Zultan

   Im not sure about the spelling though 😉

   I gotta be honest with y’all. A guy I went to high school with named his son Sincere. I don’t know how he spells it though.
   I also have a neighbor who’s got three kids named Dallis, Houstyn and a boy named Austin.geek:
   As for the lady with six kids, what’s so bad about those names.

   01 November, 2006, 6:11 am

   Let’s remember Dweezel and Moonunit Zappa.
   I live in Thailand and I have a few friends with strange nicknames.

   Dum = Black “Hello my name is Dum”
   Moo = Pig, not really, but could be.
   Odd = don’t know what it means
   Mud = don’t know what it means

   I am hungry for pumpkin pie. Do you think they would share a pumpkin?

   epitaph – DOD = Dead from drink.

   Oh, I just remembered one more. Kosmos Shiva, Nina Haagen’s daughter’s name.

    I want to name a child Fire so I can legally yell at it in a crowded cinema.

14. Spud

    01 November, 2006, 7:26 am

    I wonder if anyone has named their child Fuckyou, hilarity could also ensue from the calling of this childs name.

    What’s so bad about those names? Come on. If you met a boy named Pascal Sebastien, you’d kick the cowboy shit out of him and not a court in the land would convict you.

16. Spud

    01 November, 2006, 7:29 am

    Oh, just incase anyone thought may be a trifle over the top, I once had some customers who’s last name was Farkass, I shit you not, hilarity always ensued when one of our kids answered the phone and then yelled out “Hey dad, Mrs Fuckass is on the phone”

    Ah, happy daze.

    Back in high school in the 70’s, I knew a kid who was short, skinny, and looked a lot like Bill Gates when he was 12 or so, with thick glasses. But his parents should have been shot on sight because they saddled him with the name Flavian Bonderer. He was a nice kid, but the kids in our school were mean, and all us geeks got picked on. Hey Flav, if you’re reading this, Treewoman says hi.

    He got his dues, though. Last I heard, he was a Marine. Hoo-rah! Flav-or FLAVE!

    I knew of a family in Tennessee (neighbor of a friend) that had a daughter named Juanita. She saw it in a baby book and thought it a lovely name. Problem was, she pronounced it “Jew-Ann-Neeta”.

    Hilarity ensued, even in Tennessee.

    my wife and i played with naming our son after our fathers, robert and claude.
    bobby claude. good for a laugh but not the final decision.

    given all the comments today that contained this line i think i will plan my epitaph to read “hilarity ensues”.

    that’s how you have to swim in russia. so many people drown from drunken vodka swimming.

    you think these names are bad, try living in the hood 🙄

    Never name your kid after the motel they were concevied in. That is just begging for theripy.

    Never name your kid after your favorite tv or movie character. No kid wants to be named: Buffy, Terminator, Spike, Honey or Gaylord. If you didn’t already know this, you have no right to pro-create. 😈

25. Myra

    01 November, 2006, 11:20 am

    We have an employee whose name is Larry Billy. That’s bad even for the south. And how about the Phoenix kids – Leaf, River and Joaquin? I named my kids ordinary names like Dan and Jeff. Also know someone who is a real Matrix fan who named their kids Neo and Trinity. Enough already!

    01 November, 2006, 12:16 pm

    OK a few (all true) here:

    first : (from an old job) An illiterate family went for the “glamourous” name.. I guess it was supposed to be “Mystique”.. but they named the child “Mystaque” – say it out loud – Mistake!

    second: Along the lines of the “meconium” incident – an former co-workers mom was from rural Tennesee, and babies were just starting to be born in hospitals. Her roommate didn’t know what to name her daughter and saw a pretty word on some papers. The nurses went into a panic, and whispered to the roommate what the word meant – and baby “Vagina” was spared!

    Other names I have seen through work:

    Virginia Hamm
    Caliope Jones
    Bong Huit

    and a personal favorite:

    Richard Limp… imagine last name first w/ nickname? Limp, Dick. :limp:

    Have a great day all =)

    I had a friend who worked in the public school system. She used to keep track of the weirdest ones. Unfortunately, these are all reall children’s names (at least until they’re old enough to change them):

    Shithead (It’s pronounced “shuh-THEED” — But you know that teacher’s looking at the roster on the first day, going… WTF???)

    Lemonjello (pronounced “leh-MON-shuhlo”) whose sibling is
    Oranjello (“or-AHN-shuhlo”)

    USSenator (“yus-sen-ATE-er”)

    And my personal fave… friend used to babysit for the Pancake family. Who named their daughter Bleu Barrie. I kid you not. Poor kid never stood a chance!! :wtf:

    OK, and this is for real, I know some people that named their kid Grynnon, their last name? Barrett. As in Grin and Bare it. I BEGGED them not to, I TOLD them he was going to be getting a regular ass kicking, but, they did it. Should have had My Parents Think I’m a Joke, or Just Kick My Ass tattooed at birth, on his forehead!!!!

33. Klesko Fan

    01 November, 2006, 2:19 pm

    I can verify the Grynnon Barrett name, that is my nephew. His parents should be tortured as he will be later on in life. I’m volunteering to do the torturing of the parents, anyone want to help? Please? LOL

    Real names I encountered as a data entry clerk for school fundraiser firm:
    The PYE sisters: Sweetie & Cutie. (3rd grade twins with a future to be spent on a therapist’s couch)
    Real names my cousin’s (now) ex-husband picked for their sons: Colt, Ruger & Khyber – And yep, there’s now a restraining order against the gun nut!

    01 November, 2006, 5:59 pm

    My (ex) mother-in-law tried to force me to name my daughter after her… Lagathia! and my son after her brother… Woodley! That’s what I get for marrying into a backwards ass country family. Idiots. 😛

    Good friend of mine had two sisters in his band class in Memphis:
    Lemonjello and Orangello: procounced: leh-MOHN-jello and or-AHN-jello

    Also from Memphis: Formicadinette & Samual Adams (his parents DID name him after the BEER!!!!). There are MANY more, but I just can’t think of them right now…

    From my mother-in-law as she processed paperwork from her hospital job: “Female,” pronounced: feh-MAHL-ee. Here’s the really bad part: She thought tha that the DOCTOR named her baby girl, because that’s what he put on the kid’s paperwork, so she thought it was a done deal or something!

47. Pappy

    01 November, 2006, 10:10 pm

    My mother works in the ER so she sees some lovely names. Here are a couple that she’s seen over the years:

    Genita Cox (just wrong.)

    Went to school with:
    Penny Nichol (we called her ‘6 cents’)

    While working for the state, I came across some doozies, this is still my fave:
    Justin Case (I mean, what were the parents thinking? Just in case what??)

    And another:
    Oral Love

    All these folks still live in or near Salem, Oregon.

    as a teacher, I’ve seen/heard some odd ones over the years (like Tana C., B. Focht, and the ever hated “Chastity”) but this year I’ve got TWO students whose first and last names are identical (like Bob Bob or Sam Sam). I teach math, so I just call them “(name) squared”. Now one of them has actually started signing his paper that way… LOL

    The Money family lived down the street from my mom while she was a child. They had three children: Cash, Penny and Nickel. They moved away…and another family moved in. One of the children was named Bewilder. Must’ve been the house.

    02 November, 2006, 12:10 pm

    The lemonjello/oranjello is urban myth. I’ve heard it so many ways. The mom liked the jello at the hospital, etc.

    Same hospital that patients called heart attacks “Massive Internal Farts” instead of myocardial infarction. Kinda descriptive, doncha think?

    My wife wanted to name our first child “Willa” if child was a girl. Willa Barry? Ugh. Almost as bad as Wilma Beest.

    dh and spirit need more than a punch in the face and pelting with flowers. I would never subject my child or children to such names. I know a mother who named her kids after the cars she wished she could afford. The little girls were Porsche and Mercedes and the boy was Lincoln. Her husband named the last boy after his favorite baseball team, the Dodgers. The kids are still being ridiculed today about their names. 😈 😮 😀
