Bad Bad name

[LimeSlice]

Girl called Cviiitlin - using the Roman numerals for eight - so C - eight - Lin.
Mental.

I can't even.

[Floweryfields]

Shaking my head, over and over.....

[Floweryfields]

I have a colleague called Katie, the very next memo is going to be addressed to Kviiiie!

[myturn]

Lordy lord.

If anyone refers to me as Kviii I'll slap them.

[Trillian]

Christ on a bike! that's got to be one of the worst things I've seen. I hope they give those kids the contact details for Deed poll when they are 18 so they can change their name.

[Amity]

Saw that one for the first time a few years ago.

Similar to Lmnop etc although a bit more stupid.

[Tinks]

I feel sorry for those kids.

[peanutter]

Similar to Lmnop etc although a bit more stupid.

How do you pronounce that one? "Alphabet segment"? "Eltopee"?

Genuine question.

[Nai]

Oh dear! Makes my one seem mild - Jezycah

[Trillian]

How do you pronounce that one? "Alphabet segment"? "Eltopee"?

Genuine question.

I'm guessing it would be something like 'Elemenopee'?

[wysiwyg]

We have a kids CD by They might be giants and they sing an alphabet song - LMNO - sounds just like 'Elemeno' - my two keep asking what Elemeno means - so I think you are spot on Trillian.

[Amity]

Yea two points for Trillian. It came to fame after Abcde became popular.

Because every bho'gay-nneh bahbee must have a Eunique name. And yes that's a name too.

My parents have gone to archive for a few days - Mum was reading the local paper and it had a photo of a family that had attended the Deni Ute Muster.
The kids names are
Rusty Falcon
Chevrolet
Mac-enzie (note the hyphen)
And the bubby they'd left at home:
Holden!

😯


A.rmani-L.ondon - a relative of mine just named her daughter this. smh 😔😳

[*TripleJ*]

My cousin named her son J aega don't even know how to pronounce and a friend of mine her sister named her twins R eef and S torm boy and girl

[Trillian]

I wonder if the people who work at births deaths and marriages ever get tired of face-palming over some of these names. Although I do admit I have a cousin called Harley Davidson LOL and I can see why some people would name their kids things like that if the opportunity presented itself, such as someone's last name just happens to fit nicely with it as it does my cousin, but FFS some of these people need their heads read for calling their kids these things.

I have a distant family member (mum's cousin's grandson, something like that) named Harley, whose father is named David. So he's Harley, David's son
