Please tell my sister this is a horrible idea

[Siilka]

So, my sister told us last night her names ideas, and she was asking which we prefer. They decided that her husband and her would mix their names to create a new name.

So if it is a girl

Jamifer or Jeniams

A boy :

Jems
Jamer

We all told us it was horrible. But she insist on saying "stranger will find that cute". What do you think

I just googled cake rap. Thanks. I hate it. 😀

Glad we're back to agreeing again, now

I used to work with a man from Hull who was called Jamie, but it sounded like Jamer when he said it. I think it's BRILLIANT - definitely encourage your sister to go for that for a boy or girl. Jamer 😄

😃

Jammy Fur ?😂

Yes!
Said with a regional accentJamie could so easily sound like “ Jamer”!

All of them are horrible

A while ago, someone suggested to an OP that they spend a week introducing themselves as the name they were considering for their baby and see whether they still thought it was a good idea.

Perhaps, instead of giving your sister your honest opinion you could suggest she does this instead.... and she how she feels using that name.

Innejam surely must be the answer here.

in a jam.

or Refinnejam. Ref in a jam.

so attractive.

Have we had Jammifer yet? I’ve been distracted by the banana song.

Jammifier goddamn you stupid telephone.

Pronounced Jamifeear

If this is for real it's a terrible idea. Both "names" are awful.

It's at times like these that I think it would be much better if parents could only use names from an approved list like they used to do in France.

Oh dear god I hope your sister is winding you all up 🙈

I thank you for your opinions. I showed her the thread, but she got mad "But immigrants give their children names that are not known or hard to pronounce so should they all be forced to give their kids British names". She got upset, and I should have stayed out of it.

She is not having a laugh, she was serious. I think they all bad, but I'll leave her to it.

She sounds quite heartbreakingly stupid. Her poor child is in for a rough ride.

Jamie seems the obvious choice for either sex.

She does realise that ‘immigrants’ give their children actual names that sound nice to them (and I think their cultures). They’re not generally portmanteau-ing their own names to produce something that people within their culture think sounds crap.

there’s also quite a big distance between jamifer and insisting she must use a ‘British name’.

my bet is that the pregnancy hormones have sent her a bit odd. Hopefully they’ll think of a nice name before they make it to the registrars.

Them damn immigrants eh??

I think that your sister is a bit thick.

Jamifer 😂 there's something hilarious about this name that I can't quite put my finger on.

Jeniams sounds like slang for testicles.

Jems and Jamer just sound awful. Awful. I can't think of a nice thing to say about either of them.

Poor child. Hopefully she sees sense.

Ahhh there was a house near me growing up called Trevon. As in Trevor and Sharon’s house. That was bad, this is worse. But I’m assuming it’s a wind up so 🏆

This has won the internet for me today 😂

Jè-Jàm has a bit of jur nur say kwa about it, non?

I've seen a house named Rayvon 🤣

What about Jafar?
