Weird name to call child?

[BootsWithDresses]

The baby was born prematurely and so they decided to call him Prem.

Is that weird?

Bollocks.

No worse than slithery

I'm a teacher, trust me anything goes these days!

It's short for a longer Polish name that I can't spell

No worse than Ova, she was overdue.

It's an Indian name though. Are they Indian?

Or it's literally because he was premature?

Think Prem means love in Nepali

Definitely not Indian. He's called Prem because he was born premature.

Yes, my son is Earl.

That's worse than Justin.

Middle name Arther?

For the same reason!

I used to know a prem I think he was from the Maldives?

I kne a premature ban called Lucky Boy.
I also am not keen on premature babies called Hope. Hope is a nice name but it just means the child is always labelled as 'the poor little premature baby'. I can't imagine they will always want to have that label.
Or Melody. Again a lovely name but what if they can't sing/are non musical?
Or Storm. What if they are really quiet and shy?

You're pulling our leg, no?

So what? Their baby their name. as a teacher I encounter ever weirder and more wonderful names every year!

I call bullshit

Sounds odd to me.

Have the parents actually said that this is the reason behind the name?

It is an Indian name. My mum has a friend called Prema and she is Indian.

friend worked delivery rooms
woman had baby needed a name.
asked my friend what that box on the shelf said
friend"modess"
yup there is some poor child out there named after sanitary napkins.

Does he have a sister called Frogmella?

Nothing wrong with that, my firstborn is called Caesar Ean

DS was kind of squished when born.

Should've named him Cauliflower Head.

Might be a good way to name children?

My DS1 - Ento Nox (after Angelina Jolie)

DD - Morphia

DS2 - Catheter. Was worried about "Cathy" for short but tell him just to insist on the full version.
