Now. I’m not one to ever judge baby names, infact I don’t think I’ve very judged a baby name before now, but this one has tested me today.

A good Saxon name 😁

I thought this was a thread asking for opinions on a potential baby name, I was mentally taking a deep breath before I clicked it.

Nope

I really like Wednesday as a name, but this spelling is nuts.

Well at least she got a better name than her siblings…

SuperCamp · 09/12/2022 09:16

Yaigh!

ChessieDarling · 09/12/2022 09:16

At least she hates all her children equally. Stupid woman, so desperate to be unique and special , she’s saddled those children with ridiculous names, endless ‘no, it’s actually spelled … ‘ and judgement for the rest of their lives… or until they reach 18 and have the ability to change their names!

I can't get passed the fact that the parents literally look identical

Perfect response

To be fair at least Wednesdaigh doesn’t have an apostrophe unlike her poor siblings. In the modern day where everything is done by computer I suspect that having an apostrophe in your name is going to be a massive massive hassle.

Emily - lovely name.
Emma Leigh - ok - can’t imagine why not just Emily but she can be Emma if she wants which is also lovely.
Emma’Leigh - WHY WOULD YOU DO THAT TO THE POOR KID??????

This!

Honestly the spelling is just ridiculous but the parents genuinely look like the same person!

BedTaker · 09/12/2022 09:21

I proper laughed out loud at this thread title. Look at the siblings names though!

Notanotherone6 · 09/12/2022 09:23

People this thick shouldn't be allowed children.

IbizaToTheNorfolkBroads · 09/12/2022 09:24

I don't see the need for the apostrophes in the other children's names, ibises to indicate that even more letters are missing.

Poor kids is all I can say.

My 18 yo DS has just said "Why do they look like you have to say them like you say Klingon words." Grin

SavouryFlavour · 09/12/2022 09:39

Love how she snarks that her family 'can't spell' her kids' horrifically misspelled names.
