Worse name you EVER heard for a child

[xmasevebundle]

Today i went out and was doing shopping heard this name been called i thought it was a nickname, then the dad and nan said it to him, but fuck me i feel for the kid.

His name was DENIM.

I thought about this all day and it cant be...

Paris is just a city. London is just a city. Chicago, Vienna, Venice and Rome are just cities.

If you've never been there, and only seen it on films and travel brochures, or perhaps if you've had a wonderful holiday, then your associations will not be the same as for someone who trudges through the traffic every day to work in a noisy factory or a sewage works.

But Paris was named after... Well Paris!

Lucky I wasnt called Gorbals then...

Think Homer pre-dates city of Paris.

But if you are Paris Hilton, are you named (cross-genderedly) after Homer's Paris or Daddy's hotel in Paris the city? I'd always assumed that latter.

Could've been a lot worse. Isn't there one in Bangkok?

Piper Noveaux (real spelling)
Armani (girl)

Carly-Jo

Anakin

E-Jay

Not a horrible name as such, but a girl whose name was Siobhan, but her parents didn't realise it's pronounced shevorn - they referred to her as si o ban. Bit embarrassing for the teacher who rang home saying said child was poorly and needed to go home - the mother didn't know who she was referring to...

Paris Hilton is crossgendered?

Ocean
Milan
Madrid

I know of a girl called Manon- thats pretty awful.

Little girl in a supermarket with her grandma shouting shakira at her.

Dh once taught a little chubby kid called Adonis.

Tequila

What's wrong with Manon? It's a girl's name in French speaking countries, and I knew several growing up in the Netherlands as well. It's not weird or made up or anything, just not common in Britain?

There's a Bobdylan in DS's class at school. Not two names; not hyphenated - one word. Poor chap.

Ghengis Khan O'dell, known as Genghis.

Burberry, heard it today when visiting a school

I know twins called Piper and Prairie.

E jay!!! Oh god you couldn't call a kid that down here it was a metal bar I used to drink at with my bloke mates

Sorry in advance to all the people who think my children are called Tom Window and Stropalot.

Manson is a lovely French name. I also know of a tequila. Overheard in a beauty salon love'elle (spelled out). For a boy.

Worst one i know of and in very poor taste is treblinka.

Gojng back to the OP DSs middle name is denham. It's a family name on DHs side.

DH loves lord of the rings and wanted to call DS1 samwise. I'm glad I overruled that one

Ruby Marmalade is great. Love interesting and varied names, although dcs' are pretty run of the mill. Sometimes though I do wonder why parents give their dcs a tough name to own, I know a Gypsy who at 6 is insouciant and spiky and a gentle Gaylan who is probably in for a tough time as he gets a wee bit older.

I went to school with a Melina over 20 years ago. I also know of a girl named Piper, another named Angel and a boy with a name of a London area (don't want to out myself by saying what it is).
Weren't Ocean, Madrid and Milan in that report about child "beauty" pageants?

When we went camping last year, there was a very loud mother family pitched near us. Every bloody time she wanted the kids for something she would stand at the tent door and yell their names.

China and Ireland.

It gets worse.

They had a broad brummy accent so were actually yelling Choy-na and Oy-er-land

Think these things through please people. DH liked the name Hazel but I vetoed it on the fact that around here everyone drops the "h" sound, so it would have been "Ay-zul"

I'm imagining a noddy holder voice
v funny description
