I’ve met multiple adults with this name and they’ve had no issue. I’ve met people with MUCH more ridiculous names that I would consider bullying 😬

But op your mission shouldn't be to find a name that "isn't the MOST ridiculous" you've heard.

Baby isn't well thought-out. I mean honestly imagine asking to speak to the manager and out comes "Baby."

I'd give that one a miss - I think it's hormones talking,

I love Poppy & Bonnie , girl in our town here called her baby girl Bambi last week , I’m on the fence , not sure do I like it or not , it’s like I do & I don’t 😂..
I really like remi & rain for a girl also ..
I think Samuel is such a nice name for a boy ..

I do have to agree here, especially for if somebody already did name their baby this (and I do know it’s rising in popularity!) read that last part.

Yes , that’s what I mean , that’s an awful thing to say , that last part …

Winter.

I used to know someone who called her baby a totally standard name, think Lily, along those popular lines. But the family from day dot called her Baby Lily, which she uses to this day and must be 15/16 now.

Actually think thats quite sweet.

I genuinely really like Bambi! I think there’s a celebrity who named their baby that and I liked it at the time then too.

Tuesday, for a girl. Have only known one. She was great.

Please don’t call your baby, Baby.

FWIW, Cicely von Ziegesaar's The Carlyles series - a take-off on the success of Gossip Girl - features a set of Upper East Side teenage triplets called Avery (g), Owen (b), and Baby (g). Apparently Baby got her name because the parents were expecting twins (groan). I don't think I've ever met an adult male actually named Baby, but have met adult men with the given names Lovie and Duckie which seem kind of similar in vibe.

My mother told me she was going to call me baby, i am grateful she changed her mind. 😎😇

Please don't name your baby, Baby. Or Blue, December/Ember, or Red. Or, Birdie. Just. Please. Don't.
