RubySlippers · 18/01/2008 14:54

baby names always leads to a healthy debate

SueBaroo · 18/01/2008 14:54

I think I'm going to be really disappointed if this is a joke...

TheYoungVisiter · 18/01/2008 14:54

and lulu, my DS is actually called Kitty-Chesney B'um-faice so please be careful what you say.

Twiglett · 18/01/2008 14:54

yes YABU

and as I assume there is no way on earth you can possibly be serious about them I would say that anyone considering giving children names which will make people laugh at them, will probably be well-advised to post it on a site where they will get honest reactions first .. just so they go at it in all knowledge

would've done Frank Zappa a world of good

Eddas · 18/01/2008 14:54

if you don't want a comment don't say what the name is.

I don't think they're real though.

THe only people that need to like a name choice is the parents. Anyone else has to get used to it.

nailpolish · 18/01/2008 14:54

i fhtose really ARE the names you ahve given your children, then teh teasing on here will only be whats going to happen in RL

sorry

BecauseImWorthIt · 18/01/2008 14:55

tictacto - are you really serious? Both with your names (which are dreadful, IMO) and then asking us if you're being unreasonable?

You must be new to MN if you don't like the response you have had.

But also you will have to realise that with those kind of names you are exposing not yourself but your child/ren to other people's ridicule.

Threadworm · 18/01/2008 14:55

Tictacto is surely joking. These wd be outrageous even as MN nicknames.

CantSleepWontSleep · 18/01/2008 14:56

lol lol lol - this is obviously a joke.
Very good tictacto.

Dropdeadfred · 18/01/2008 14:56

those names are crap. noone will be able to pronounce or spell them and i pity your child learning to spell their name

tiredemma · 18/01/2008 14:56

sorry- those are truly awful names, especially the potato one.

Dont do it.

well, I think that a majority dislike of a name gives a good idea of what that child will have to go through as she/she grows up. Do people that give their children such stupid names not consider that?
