Bad Baby Names

[Ed, Ego and Superego]

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)

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.

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 middle name is the name of a dead baby.

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?

Ack, how could I forget...I went to school with O.K. Doak.

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."

I once knew a boy named bread

I was named after a popular British SCI-FI show in the '80s

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?

It could always be worse...
