As the parent of a child with a relatively normal (I hope) name: Arianna Elizabeth I hate to see 27 Jaydens or Bradens or Aidans. I'll leave the girls names alone tyhay can be far worse! On that subject I found this great blog: (Baby's named a bad bad thing) http://www.notwithoutmyhandbag.com/babynames/Its absolutely hilarious. I laughed out loud. I'm of the opinion that if you can't say "President Whatever" or "Doctor Whatever" you have the wrong name. There will not be a President Karsyn You kids will not thank you for a lifetime of misspellings and Misprounciations. -Ed

I went to gradeschool with a kid called stealth. If i remember right he was a weird little bugger. If I ever have a kid I wanted to name him Spartacus for a boy or Athena for a girl. But i just think those names are a little weird. Or am I wrong?

Yeah, those names are weird, in today's world at least. My suggestion for parents who want to give kids an unusual name: make it their middle name. That way they won't have to tell it to anyone unless they want to. I see no reason to guarantee that your kid will be made fun of for having an unusual name.

My brother dated a girl for awhile who had a baby named Shelia Cayenne (yes, like the pepper), how could you do that to another human?

When I was in school there was a girl named Patty Wack ... I figure her parents took lots of drugs in the 60's. Everyone use to say "Nick-nack, Patty Wack give that dog a bone."

As a grad teaching assistant, I had a student named Pinkie QuoVadis (first & middle name). Nice lady, odd name. If I had ever had a son, I would have been sorely tempted to name him Edgar Allan (the first three letters of my last name are P-o-e). Would that have been wrong?
