Where did she think the name came from?! 🙄

Surely just another piece of DM fiction?

I dunno. Some of the name threads on here..

It's a terrible name however she came by it. I'd have been annoyed about it long before 25 years.

having just clicked on it… why would you be upset being named after a lamp if you’d lived with being called SHAIDE for 25 years, you’re right, it’s made up

What was the name? Not clicking on any DM links!

Could have been worse. Lamp. Bulb. Flex. Switch. Even worse if she'd been in the bathroom at the time. Plughole. Soap. Shower. Toilet...............

Definitely added the “i” to make it quirky

Shaide

Toaster for a boy maybe?

I heard a mum call out to her son in Dunelm Mill last week, kids name was Placid. People are barmy.

I don't know, it's not the worst name ever. It would be pretty cool if you were a goth. I kind of like it and I usually have no time for daft made-up names.

Shaide is being silly fussing about it now if she was OK with it before. What's wrong with being named after a lampshade anyway?

It's her brother Tin Opener I feel sorry for.

I saw an article recently about a boy who was called Table. He was begging his parents to let him change it!

You just know there's someone in the world who has to introduce themselves by saying "Hello, my name is Plughole" 😂

Thought it was going to be Tiffany!

It wasn't Lava?

they were clearly set on it

He should have tabled a motion to change his name.

A memory just popped into my head. My dad is a huge aviation buff and I remember him saying that Bill Lear, the designer of the Learjet, named his daughter Shanda!!!!

@@ShuviToopya heaven backwards know a child named that.

worst ever Hyrani Tiger Lilly

".. a boy who was called Table."

Named after where he was conceived. Very romantic.

🤣🤣 You're so right

Saw that as well. Poor child. Tbh I hope it isn't true.

Hate Neveah. Not least because every parent who chooses it thinks that they they are being oh so original and feel the need to tell you what "they" made it up from.....they all seem to think that they made it up themselves!
