Romeo Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 I have noticed a trend recently for people giving kids stupid names. This morning I heard a mother calling her kid Magenta, is it only me that finds this ridiculous. Also recently advised a pal not to name her kid Lukas, with a K, as she and the kid would spend their entire lives saying "hi, this is/i am Lukas, with a K" Any P&B'ers got stupid names, or names spelled differently, just to be unusual 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YER SISTERS YER MAW Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 Some celebs are the worst for it. Naming weans after fruits like Apple & Peaches is just plain wrong. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ICTJohnboy Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 I knew a couple who called their daughter Iona. Nothing wrong with that of course except that their name was Gunn. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nsr Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 I used to work for the police and they kept records of children in dodgy families. I was amazed at how many neds appeared to have named their child "Ubb", then I finally realised this was an abbreviation for "unborn baby". Not one of my brightest moments, I must admit. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ForzaDundee Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 (edited) Billie-Jae is the worst I've came across. Edit: Probably should have worded that different. Edited October 6, 2014 by ForzaDundee 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cardinal Richelieu Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 FACT- no name beginning with the letter 'K' is acceptable in the 21st century. I expect Keith to be along with his trusty banhammer shortly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacksgranda Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 I have an acquaintance whose newly born grandson is called Troy - didn't have the heart to tell him our daughter's dog is called Troy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottsdad Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 Was at school with a boy called Kris. WTF? Spell it right. And any parent that names their kid Clare, Lynn or Lyndsey is forcing their child in to a lifetime of spelling their name out to people. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom McB Posted October 6, 2014 Share Posted October 6, 2014 TBH chaps after 37 years in teaching I have seen many names with variant spellings. Most names one can learn to live with but with others you simply hope the poor wean has a decent middle name that they can use in later life. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
