Some white trash girl I went to school with named her child (yes, of course she has a child) Ellexis. Not Alexis, not Elle. Ellexis. It makes me angry just thinking about it.

I read a book that had a section on weird names. Try these on for size:
Orangejello
Lemonjello
Temptress
♥♥♥♥head
Loser
Winner

Yeah, these are real names. I can't believe there are people out there called this.

I really want to not believe that people have actually named their kids these because that's absolutely ridiculous -.- Those poor children. They haven't even done anything and they'll be getting grief right off the bat.
 
I wonder if at any time someone will name their kids Control, Alt and Delete? And if there is ever a problem with them, will they hit them all at the same time?

Sometimes, I only need to watch Maury to find the most ridiculous names that their parents gave to their kids. But if I had to name a few, it would be Letoshua and Laquisha. Yes, somewhere in the world, there is a girl named Letoshua Joshua.
 
Dude, I know this is tame, but it annoys the living ♥♥♥♥ out of me when parents name their identical twins practically the same name. It's like, what purpose does that serve bar being cute for like 5 minutes? It annoys everyone else and it causes the poor twins to get mixed up all the time.

One of my male cousins recently welcomed identical twin sons, and he and his wife named them Adil and Aqil. (They're Arabic names.) I don't hate the names, but seriously, the only difference besides the Arabic meanings is one letter.

I saw this atrocious girl on Maury named Rayletha, who was trying to have a baby. One of the names she picked out for it was Courvoisier, which is the name of a liquor (which she drank).
 
I've heard some named Lego, why would you name your child after plastic bricks? :/
 
I was watching the news several weeks ago and they were talking about a post that was becoming viral (in the Philippines) on Facebook. It was about a girl who had passed the entrance exams in a really tough school, and then everyone was talking about her because she had a weird name. The news team got an interview with her and found out that it wasn't just her; there were three of them.

The girl who passed the entrance exam was Sincerely Yours '98 (nicknamed Truly by her friends), and her siblings' names were Macaroni '85 and Spaghetti '88.

And I'm not kidding about the numbers.
 
- Nob - That poor hiker on Route 25, he would have been bullied so much as a child.
 
I've had family members with some pretty awful names. Iwanna and Happy are two I can think of immediately. Iwanna came about because the parents fought over if they wanted a boy or a girl, so they named her Iwanna, let that sink in for a moment.

I think the best name was a kid in one of my swim classes when I was an assistant swim teacher, his name was Rocco. He was a pretty good pupil too.
 
My old high school maths buddy had a cousin and it's middle name was Rudolph.

You wouldn't like my parents! My twin and I have different enough names, but they start with the same letter.

That and also he isn't a god cause a king isn't a god. :P Neither is a prince. They just have royalties, not the power of a deity like you.

Anyway, I think the worse name I've seen is Hashtag and then Like after the "Facebook Like". I have no clue what those people were thinking at all. Both of their children will be bullied for life.

One of my favorite singers/musicians, Lights Bokan, just had a baby with her husband, Beau Bokan of the band Blessthefall. They named the girl Rocket Wild. I know there's a good amount of people who found the name odd, but seriously, she legally changed name from Valerie (her birth name) to Lights (her stage name) and his name is Beau. You shouldn't expect people with names like those to give their kid a normal name.

@Sideshow Bob: Nob is the name of one of the former translators for the English games, Nob Ogasawara. He translated every main series game up to Platinum and most of the spin-off up to Ranger: Shadows of Almia. His name really isn't odd, he's just from Japan. His name isn't odd there at all. lol He's also a very known of the forum, Something Awful. Something Awful is known for some famous memes , so of course there's meme references in the games (In Diamond and Pearl a Galactic grunt says "Cosmic energy for the win!" and a trainer calls you a noob.) Fun fact. :)

Is one of them "eunuch"?

Hmm...I have known some bad names in real life, but none worse than Thong Song. Yes, like the "Thong Song". It's unfortunate, but yes, "Thong" is a name in Vietnam, meaning, "Understand thoroughly; intelligent". So...the parents aren't really to blame either since they immigrated to the United States from there. I'd suggest a legal name change personally unless he wanted to go into the thong or bikini business, then his name would be gold for marketing.
 
I guess I wouldn't say this name is stupid because in theory, I guess it's, as he claims, "inspiring", but Ron Artest's name change to Metta World Peace I thought was ridiculous. Maybe because I'm biased against him because of all his altercations and legal problems, but still.

Mother of heaven. Seriously, what are those people THINKING!?

Have we as a populous, fallen so far that the meaning of 'common sense' doesn't exist anymore? Or is that these people are trying to get at fame and/or popularity for naming their son or daughter after a popular service? [Ex: Twitter, Facebook, ESPN, etc] I can NOT even think the fear and punishment these children will have to endure in their futures. I might sound like a broken record, but seriously, think about it.

What IF you were named, 'Facebook', or 'ESPN'? Can you image the bullying and cruelty that these people can go through? Sure, having your name changed legally is there, but the fact these people want their child to GROW UP with this name....its just disgusting and utterly disturbing. Heck, the phrase; 'I'm going to log onto Facebook!' can screw someone up. ...stupid facehook.

Its just I can't image this happened and it is... and it hurts my brain... IT really does...

I think "Happy" is pretty cute, especially considering some other ones listed here, I mean what the hell... the world is quite crazy.

Any name that is an insult (♥♥♥♥head, Loser, etc) makes me cringe the most... :c
 
I heard of a case in my country where one pair of parents named their daughter Erdbeerfeld...
(Literally translated that means strawberry field)
