Bad Bad name

**MummaBee** · October 1st, 2011, 07:26 PM

I have just come across a beautiful little girl her name is spelt (le-ah) okay so looks like leah not that bad, but the parents pronounce it le-dash-ah and get angry when people say it wrong!!!!!!!

REALLY, my name is now mary

and will be pronounced marysmileyface!!!
Had to share

Yep have heard of that one before, pretty sure there is an extensive thread about really terrible baby names!
Tallulah does the hula from hawaii is one that springs to mind....

Oh for crying out loud!! I LOVE the name Leah, can even come at spelling it Le-ah. But not saying le-dash-ah. That's just beyond rediculous.

So do you mean they pronounce it like (Princess) Leia? or they actually say Ledasha?

**MummaBee** · October 1st, 2011, 08:24 PM

yeh actually say Ledasha, its not actually a bad name but the spelling is bad

The latter.

Oh! That's pretty much all I have to say. I just told DH though and he said a whole lot more!

**tellytubby** · October 1st, 2011, 08:30 PM

what the?!

And they get upset at people saying it incorrectly?! That's just ridiculous! You can't honestly expect people to verbalize a punctuation mark,..... Can you?!

That is just mean to the child. I would have assumed it was Leah, with an odd spelling

**MummaBee** · October 1st, 2011, 10:21 PM

thats exactly what I did, it was followed by a 3min lecture on how to say the name, and ranting about how no-one ever gets it right. Oh i wonder why???

I work in mid and some of the names/spellings are just down right wrong. You wonder if the parents actually sit back and consider the impact on their childs life?
