    On the bright side, they're spelled correctly/intuitively. At least they're not Trahk, Trygg, Brystel, Wylloh and Pyeper.

    Didn't Micheal Jackson have a kid named Blanket?


  • Registered Users Posts: 26,281 ✭✭✭✭Eric Cartman


    theres a few mad names, but spelling normal names in strange ways is worse

    orlagh instead of orla , timm (with 2 m's) etc... is just the torture posh cúnts enflict on their kids

    actually also naming your kids after a car make/model or something religious like faith, hope etcc is also weird

    Carly is a name that just creeps me out, come on seriously who names a child Carly.

    hope isn't a religious word.

    Alec Baldwin & Kim Basinger named their daughter Ireland

    Faith and Hope are the most lightweight of religious/virtue names...and not so bad imo. The Puritans apparently used Silence, Obedience and Hate-Evil as names...

    Daughters : Bristol; Willow & Piper
    yeah, whats wrong with that name?:p
    i dunno, i think theres room in the world for weird and normal names, i know people with really unusual names and they just suit them and some really simple names are lovely too,,, lalala, *skips off into the sunset*

    Ye some of these names are a bit in the mad side but I think its equally strange that parents name there kids such common names, I think in one of my classes in school i was one of six Davids.

    I'm not saying I would have liked to be called brooklyn but surely parents could try be a bit more creative.

    I hate artsy fartsy Irish names like:
    Iseult
    Isolde
    Fionnain
    Laochra
    etc etc

    Generally kids called these names are usual offspring of parents who bring their kids to art galleries and don't care if their darlings annoy everyone else.
