Names you can’t stand #2

[Itsallaboutmememe]

Are you my mum? My brother (2nd born) is called Nathan and is always a bellend. I always found the name nathan was always being shouted by an angry parent (not always my mum )

Im not sure I know those sisters though lol

Haha
im was more likely to yell at his brother-who seemed to be on a mission to wind me up
id never met a Nathan until I had one and they all seem to have their moments

Nathan - because that's my exes name and he's quite possibly the biggest bellend known to man.

Oh, and my niece has a friend called "Stormi". A part of me cringes inside everytime I have to call her by name

Stormi suits kylie Jenner because she’s kylie jenner. Like that could pass as a famous persons name, but hate when people’s kids are called like stormi Jones it reminds me of a stripper

Aw see I actually love a Glaswegian accent (I’m quite common tbf ). It’s just the turning the “i” to a “u” that some people throughout the whole of Scotland seem to do that has me like

Like how “Willie” becomes “Wullie.” I’m Glaswegian.

Omg yes . There are just certain names that don’t sound nice in our accent

Hold on to your hats people but I know of a little girl called Mahiki-Bow.

Jesus wept... for a sec there I thought you'd said "Mankini Bow"

 

[Fancyfeathers]

I used to love the name chloe until i heard it being called clue-e (apologies for all the Chloe's out there )

 

[Papayya]

I was reading this thread thinking some of these must be made up until I heard a woman screaming for her daughter 'Lyric' in the park some time later

Where she was conceived

 

[Busybee93]

I had my first Son young he’s 21 now and I always remember the midwives telling me that a baby in the ward upstairs was called Pocahontas. Being young I thought they were taking the piss but nooooooo! Fast forward to my Son’s first day of Academy and he came home and said “I’ve got a girl called Pocahontas in my registration class”

Where she was conceived

I can only imagine I would tell you what they called the next kid they had after that but I’m scared I’d out my location

Ok so I think I’ve messed up my own kids names... has anyone else done this and wonders if it’s too late to change...

I saw the most beautiful spelling of my girl’s name the day I registered her- of course it was too late then!

Girl on front of me today in the shops and she named her twin daughters Dolcie and Darling

So many awful Irish names.

Donnacha.
Diarmuid.
Dermot.
Colm.
Padraig. (or PAAA for short)
Aine
Grainne
Fionnuala
Nuala

I'm sure there's plenty more. My partner wanted an Irish name for our kids and we couldn't decide on any.

Donnacha is a name that should be banned its horrendous. Roisin too.
I also don't particularly like Eireann/Eirinn/erin or eire as a name. Going abroad "ya my name is literally Ireland"

I prefer the Irish version to Ireland Baldwin- it’s very harsh to my ears.

I dislike the name Zoe - not that there's anything inherently wrong with it but it reminds me of an unpleasant woman I once worked with

My family knows someone who has three young nieces with very cutesy, twee names. I won't give the actual names but they are similar to Jamie Oliver's daughters Poppy Honey and Daisy Boo, but with diminutives of a full name (like Susie, Betty, Katie etc - not even a name like "Molly" which used to be short for Mary but has now been used as a name on its own for long enough that it can stand in its own right.) These names are nice on a little girl but could you take them seriously on an adult?

I don't like the name Zoe simply because I associate it with unsavory characters.

And no no no. Theres a family in my street who have given all 4 of their daughters those types of twee names but they are chavvy and shouty. One is called "Mitzy".

Molly sounds like a dogs name.

I once heard about a girl named 'McKayla' instead of 'Michaela'
