Most recent name to make you "huh?!"

[zingally]

What names have you heard recently to make you stop in your tracks and wonder if the parents are a bit mad?

My most recent favourite is... Flossy, for a girl.
Made worse because my dads pet name for me is Flossy, or Floss. So to hear it as an ACTUAL name just makes me gawp.

Worst boys name - Banjo.

To the person who said about the name 'Xenon' on the first page you probably heard someone call their son the completely normal Polish name Zenon.

MACJESUS IS THE WINNER!

Louisiana - They were not Polish, they were very English middle-class.

MacJesus?!! That is just pure genius. Almost makes me want to have another baby!

I know a Petronella - known as Plum

My brother went to school with a Xenon.

MacJesus, I love it!!

That may be my new swear word!

Mc Jesus, that pie filling's hot!

There is a girl in my DD's class at school (reception) called Angel'Mai. It's all one word, you have to say it joined together.

I also know a Jozzi and a Kenny. They are siblings.

I know two boys (brothers) called Spike and Buzz adorable though haha

I can't say the first name even though it made me 'huh?' because it's so unusual I will out myself, but this poor child's middle name is Flash and his surname is Gordon.

And I know a Nevaeh T'nes.

I know a little girl called Serenity. She's gorgeous and very serene. wish I'd thought to name my children something like that, maybe they would be the crazed hooligans they are today

My sister taught an Alora. I worked with a colleague whose child was names Cara Mia (sweet!).

Colin.

I know of a Daisjhua-Maire pronounced Die - sha -Marie. Don't know where the heck it came from, the parents are Saaarf London through and through and yes Marie is spelt Maire. Don't know if it's a legitimate spelling, made up or just mis spelt!

Japanese maybe?

Moomins - err definitely not! There's nothing Japanese about this lot, think Jeremy Kyle, Shamless or that Skint programme which was on last night...

I just heard someone yell for Divani (boy I think).

No, I knew a boy called Zen who was anything but.

There was a Japanese lad called Raki. It took me ages to work out it was Lucky.

That was more of a Ah! moment than a Huh! moment.

Someone I know has chosen Alivia. Yep. Thats Olivia with an A as she will constantly need to say

Snake for a boy, Fox also

Cinnamon and Vanilla for twin girls

PMSL at Macjesus!

I knew a Titanilla and an Olimpia when I was little. they were nice girls

ladyjadie

Also, ABird - Neveah T'nes?!

Hahahahahahaha

Rettu S'kcollob.

Surely it should be T'nes Neveah?

Not to split hairs or anything.

I met a baby called Fry recently. Different.
