AWFUL NAMES TO CALL YOU CHILD...

[Justine888]

I dont think there's anything people get more worked up over something that is none of their business than what someone has or wants to call their child.
With this in mind, I thought it might be fun for people to nominate some really bad names they've heard friends or relatives have given to these poor little children.... Whats the worst you've ever heard?
Who knows... this page might be inspiration for some pregnant ladies out there!
Have fun!

Timberland ( A boy at Ds's school - who actually asks ds to call him just plain old 'tim')

Swayze - Name of a baby being DNA tested on the Jeremy Vile Show

Koolio- unfortunate name of a baby in one of those shit real life mags 'take a break or chat- or something equally as shite

sonny is nice, but the others are horrid. i've heard of a Storm too.

A friend of mine open calls her DS a "little shit" to his face!!

tiredemma the 2 names i remember reading in a magazine were "alien" and "z"

how long do these threads run before somebody says. oi, that's what i called my LO??????

I give this thread 100 posts before someone mentions one of my sons' names and says it is chavvy.

'alien'??

Oh dear. Isnt that child abuse?

shall we guess?

lol platesmasher and dumblesdores girl, exactly what i was thinking

Its common knowledge in 'the real world' that my ds2 has a 'chavvy' name. (not intentional)

did this thread not just happen about 48 hours ago???

I seem to be in some kind of wierd MN groundhog day...

,,racks brain for contenders fro Dumbledoresg DS name>>

I know a child called Storm - nothing particularly bad about it.

Stick to names like Abishag - which aren't simply a matter of taste. Not in this country, anyway!

(someone will have an isreali relative called Abishag, you mark my words!)

Fruit Juice - a bloke I went to uni with

Spring - a girl at school (although actually I really like that! )

I think OPer should have declared already

Crouton
Fark
Urk
Billericay
Laproscopy
Tumeric
Envelope (pronounced like 'Penelope')
Balustrade

Avishag? Oh dear God. And it's biblical, you say? Oh dear God.

Gobnait.

Though I do think it's a grower

see if you can find any goodies on herewww.gro-scotland.gov.uk/files1/stats/pop-names-07-t4.pdf

Oh Blu, it is mentioned without fail every time this sort of thread is started. Just open your mind: chavvy boy's name = ................

Yup, that one!

you lot are horrible

how dare you talk about my son's name like that, its because i am not mumsnet royalty that you have decided to pick on my.

do you not know that my son was named after his grandfather who was trampled to death by a donkey. the name means a lot to us then you come along and start slagging it of, just because you have no imagination and called all yourt children josh or rebecca

Well, DDG, I don't hold with this categorisation of 'chavvy' so your secret is safe with me
