Society & Culture Terrible baby names

[The Speaker]

I have an extra vowel in my name, and while it's uncommon, and it's not unusual given my name's descent.

Dutch double a?

 

[Cruyff14]

Iain?

Know a few blokes of Scottish decent who have that name. I give them shit about it being inefficient and for all the bandwidth they've wasted in their lives, when the same name could be spelt with one less vowel.

Lol got it in one.

Grandparents were Scottish so parents spelt it that way.

It's kinda like Eion Morgan, English/Irish cricketer.

Came across Shae'la today. Family was 100% Bogan as you would probably guess.

Lara Bingle and Sam Worthington naming their kid Rocket Zot. Come on now that is beyond the pale. These two should have their citizenships revoked.

Mercadez. Pronounced 'Mercedes'. Mercedes is bad enough. Islander family.

Clem Smith, there's a name you can hang your hat on. Should win multiple Brownlows.

 

[Bumpswithagrin]

Kamdyn

Lol, was wondering how long it would be before it made an appearance in this thread

 

[EdgeOfReason]

Kamdyn

I was just coming in to post that.

In the same vein, I've always thought Bernie Vince was a good old fashioned football name.

Let's be honest, they're both dumb as dogshit and largely talentless, and this is just a further reflection of that.

Funny how he comes across as the exact opposite of his name, in personality, look and playing style.

Best/worst stereotypical made-up welfare kid name - Caydn Beetham, Jarryn Geary, or Kamdyn McIntosh?

 

[akkaps]

I knew a girl who had a palindrome as a name. Meaning her first surname was her first name in reverse.

 

[wally funk]

That's awful and my condolences to your friend. Think there was a chick on The Voice or whatever called Rachael Leahcar (a stage name, thank Christ, but why would you do it to yourself?)

 

[akkaps]

Was she the blind chick?

 

[NotAMagpieBogan]

Was she the blind chick?

Yeah, before I found out that it was a stage name, I thought her parents might have been trolling and decided to name her Rachel for that reason. Since she wouldn't have been able to see her name written down and all.

My mate's surname is Wang, he had to think long and hard (huehuehue) about what to name his two kids without scarring them for life

 

[Catfish Alley]

I read an article today and it was about a doctor named Cat Pause. I think it must have been an April fools joke.

Rocket Zot Worthington.

Well done Lara & Sam. Excellent troll.

Wait it's not April Fools....

 

[Ice-Wolf]

Rocket Zot Worthington.

Well done Lara & Sam. Excellent troll.

Wait it's not April Fools....

I love how they've tried to defend Zot, but offer no defence for Rocket, I understand where they were going with the Zot part but surely you use the dad's actual name and not the nickname, but at least that is a middle name and can be excused, but Rocket wtf?

 

[Cruyff14]

Yeah, I don't think that name will really take off.

 

[rdhopkins2]

Naming is a crash landing?

Yeah, I don't think that name will really take off.

Exploded on the launch platform.
