Stumbled across this at work (don't ask). Someone from that MTV show Teen Mom has announced her new child will be called Kaiser.

Is it me or... no. Just - no.

Not meaning to be snobby, but Kaiser just isn't a name, is it?

Having said all that Cesar is a widely used name, so ...

Alita7 · 11/06/2014 22:55

I like the sound of it but no due to the implications.

Yes Caesar basically.

Maybe when he grows up he'll change his name to Mr. Dog

Maybe he'll grow up to marry Katie Price's daughter Princess and they can stage a takeover bid.

It's the spelling, isn't it, not the sound of the name?

It's a derivative of the same name, but while Cesar is acceptable and widely used Kaiser is very much Hmm.

It sounds like the name you'd give to a German Shepherd. Sorry, it's awful.

der Kaiser - the emperor

a bit like calling your child King!

I thought Hitler. So a no from me!

fledermaus · 12/06/2014 21:24

Why Hitler?

rachel234 · 12/06/2014 21:56

What does Hitler have to do with Kaiser Confused

Kaiser Wilhelm was part of the cause of ww1 with making Germany strong and a leading power in Europe. not direct associations but that Aryan nation train of thought and anti semitism.

This year sees the century of the outbreak of the First World War.

I think it is a spectacularly bad time to choose this as a name if you are Caucasian and live in Europe.

It is on a par with Adolf.

Noooooo.....

Kaiser roll or Kaiser chiefs. Just DON'T.
