To ask what brand names you hate?

[sandytoes84]

Expecting first baby and physically revolted by twee brand names...tommy tippee, cudl, cuggle (the worst offender) and the most ridiculous encountered so far...petunia pickle bottom, what the actual fuck?!

I can’t be the only one to have such a reaction - what brand names do you hate?

Dr. Oetker. Just makes me feel a bit queasy. Ditto Yakult. Sounds like the noise cats make when they have a fur ball.

Every mum walking round here has a 'BabyStyle' pram emblazed on the hood and the side. I HATE it. Looks cheap and naff.

I had a Babystyle Oyster. It was fantastic. Durable, solid and offered parent facing way beyond other brands in a similar price range.

Graco I just don’t like them I think it’s how the car seat fits into the chassis it just looks ugly

@HighlyUnlikely I willnever be able to call it anything but vag is ill now 😂

Dickmanns, but I still eat them.

Bickiepegs. Awful.

Shnuggle bath. I refused to buy one, even though they're supposed to be good, because it would make me want to vomit every time I saw the logo!

Hot Milk, breastfeeding clothes
Bickiepegs is actually so awful I almost admire it

Vag is ill 😂 I don’t hate is so much now

Mum & Me

Also the faux-wankery that is Mr Kipling's Signature Collection and the like

My Babiie - it’s the two i’s that does my head in.

I don’t mind Anusol or Vagisil- at least they’re upfront about what they’re for instead of using flowery language

I’d never have a Quinny ( medieval fanny?)

Snuzpod.

Stop it.

FCUK.
We all know what you mean.

Bioglan

Anusol has always looked like anus 'ole to me.

"What shall we call it? It's for the anus."
"Well, yes, but that's very middle class. The poor won't know what the word means. They call it an 'ole."
"Hmm. Maybe we should combine the two words into Anusole."
"Good idea but drop the 'e' so it's not too obvious."

Came on to say FCUK and glad I'm not the only one.

Say FUCK if you want to not this coy: we're almost swearing, look at us! They were fine as French Connection for years and I'd give them the time of day now if they were still that or just plain FUCK.

Cilit Bang. Clit bang more like

Ickle bubba..I would have bought one if it didn't have this name.

I don't have kids (or haemorrhoids) so mine haven't been mentioned yet...
Anthropologie, & other stories, gym shark

Skoda Fabia. Makes me think of people driving about in big minges.

My toddler loves the YouTube channel Little Baby Bum. The videos are really good but I despise that name.

HAha I was going to say little baby bum but I didn’t think anyone else would know it! My 2 year old loves it but the older kids refuse to put it on as they hate the name

My babiie definitely. It shouldnt even be pronounced like "baby", more like bab-eye-ee

Agree with Jojo Maman Bebe. If you pronounce it with a French accent you sound snobby, if you dont you sound common. Many of my friends just call it Jojo which still sounds pretty naff.

There is a play cafe near here called Ickle Village which sounds awful.

I never liked Birds Eye.
