The worst baby names you have ever heard?

[IAmTheOneWhoKnocks]

Just starting a list of what not to call my baby. I don't usually make a habit of judging babies by their names but some I've heard recently have been frigging awful! The most recent one being Katara it just reminds me of that phlegm when you've got a cold.

So what would you not name your baby?

scrufhead I don't actually think Chip is that bad, however with my surname ( F.r.y.e.r) it most definitely would be!

Blimey, were expecting a little girl and the front runner is Katherine. I had no idea she'd be at a social disadvantage because we would use a K instead of a C.

yvonne pronounced why -vo-ney

Diesel.

I was thinking of celebrity bad name making decisions when clicking on this thread. Thought Gwynedth, Katie and Posh had the bad name brigade all tied up between them, but Kanye and Kim took the biscuit. North West. Couldn't believe they did that. Are they hoping for some free flights in the future or endorsement deals with the airline

Randy as a name has always grated on me since I was a child. I disliked the sexual connentations of it I think although I know it's common there. Had an American uni lecturer called that and there were always grins. Didn't seem to be a name well suited to a UK student population.

And at Jenna Taylor

And I was nearly called Colombine. Why would my parents have done that to me?

Persephone :-(

Persephone is lovely. Esp NN Percy.

Kyle

Egbert

Really miffybun the WORST baby name you have heard is Kyle???

Probably, I'm not keen anyway and it just reminds me of Jeremy Kyle.

I'm sure that loads of people won't like my children's names and I really don't mind that. Everyone has different taste in names.

My DS is called Kyle. I know it isn't an approved MN name but am upset it is THE worst name for you.

Sorry Theonlyoneiknow

Nothing to do with it not being an approved name, just not for me.

I suppose threads like this are always going to offend/upset someone and I should have kept my thoughts to myself. I'm not a horrible person really.

I know a Kyle, he is American. Nice chap who really suited his name

I can't believe DS1's name has made it in here (Gwynedth also chose it but years after we did) again its a great name and he wears it very well. I have to say that we never intended it to be the long version but EVERYONE uses the longer version. Odd how people can't get their heads around unusual names

I hate the name Kyle. Really hate it.

I just said my DS was called Kyle. Was there really any need to be so nasty about it FFS. Grow up.

Snow Angel.

First name Snow, middle name Angel.

Two of them separately? Whatever. Together? Just why?

My mother said that Downton would be a cool baby name yesterday.

I rolled my eyes so blatantly she thought I was having a seizure.

Oops sorry didn't see that.

Kyle is a lovely name Theonly
