    I was thinking the exact same thing. Absolutely revolting.

    I'm sorry hun, I hope your friend finds the perfect name to fit her family.
    Remember her friend isnt a member of BB and cant see the fun girls are having while tossing idea's around, which may actually result in a name !

    TBH your right Lisa, there was another "joke" thread started about names, that members gave time out of their day to reply to, and I thought pffft when I bothered replying, only to find it was a joke, Thats probably why members may have asked "is this serious"

    How can you call having fun "absolutly revolting", no one is being hurt, the pregnant lady isnt reading this, I think its "absolutly thoughtful" that everyone is putting in suggestions. Fun and serious

    How do you know she won't join so she can read it? and what about other people who are new and see this kind of behaviour? Do you think it's going to encourage them to post if they think they may be ridiculed for their choices?

    Also, just because someone can't see that you are mocking them doesn't make it ok. Just like calling an overweight person a "fat slob" behind thier back isn't ok. (that's an example, I don't actually think like that about anyone)

    That'd all I'm going to say, this wasn't the purpose of the thread and IMO it's been derailed enough already.

    I'm sorry you took my post that way, Bengal. It's not how I meant it at all.

    How about Indian city names?
    Calcutta
    Bombay
    Dehli
    DumDum
    Hyderbad
    Sinnar

    There's a list on wiki and some of them look totally made up.
    List of cities and towns in India - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    What about Tiger? There are lots of tigers in India.
    or Chilli? They use chilli in Indian cooking.

    I quite like the name Kendahl (sorry if I have spelt it wrong) I knew twins whos names were Kendal and Lacey they were gorgeous.

    ANyways back to it.

    A boy I dated when I was in high school,his name was Ragner ? (I reckon he ended up doing time personally)

    I love unusual names but honestly how many actually keep them? sometimes I think parents need to remember that these are little human beings that will have to grow up correcting people with spelling and pronunciation and its very very annoying. (my name is fairly common and people STILL cannot say it or spell it correctly)

    Tell your friend to buy a baby book. She can find good ones out there that have different races in it to find something more unusual. Swahili (sp?) names, Hebrew names, Celtic names would all be worth a look, just about any culture can be found in name books these days.

    Just out of curitosity - has your friend ever explained why she wants something that looks impossible to pronounce? is it JUST to be different?

    Why doesn't she call the kid India, that's Indian. She could spell it Indyiah.

    Kikkoman is a kick arse name. It's a bit more Chinese than Indian though, wouldn't you agree?

    yeah I'd have to agree, looks like a philippino surname.

    Oh I also knew a guy whos surname was Kittikhoun? maybe try different nationality surnames?
