Names You Can’t Stand #4 It’s heaven spelt backwards.

I don't mind the name Sam although it's a bit bland and non descript but it puts me off that almost everyone that I know who has a son called Sam seems to have a lisp and calls them 'Tham' and it just ruins the name for me!

 

[Rippedjeanmaybe]

There’s someone from my hometown who has twin boys called…. Ronnie & Reggie

You must be from where I’m from because I’m sure there can’t be another mum who’s named her twins after Ronnie and reggie and I have one where I’m from!

There are a load of 'boho' American instagrammers that have moved to Hawaii, and one of them has a husband called Tanner. All of them seem to get weirder and weirder with the names they pick for their babies; I think they must be in competition with each other to name their child the most boho/hippy/wacky name. One of them has a girl called Ozzy (LoBeeston is the instagrammer) which I think is awful for a boy, let alone for a girl.

Ozzy is definitely a dog name for me. Male dog obviously.

My granddaughter used to go to playgroup with a little boy called Memphis!

Is Ozzy short for Ozymandias?

Yeah think so! Can't remember which episode it was but they were on about baby names for Howard and Bernie I think

Yes that's the one! Brilliant episode! God, I miss Big Bang Theory. I really hope they start making new episodes again one day after a few years like they did with Will & Grace.

Have you seen the TLC show Sweet Home Sextuplets names?
The three older boys are Wales, Sailor and Bridge. The sextuplets are Blu, Layke and Tag (boys) and Rawlings, Rayne and Rivers (girls)

Yes they are dreadful, I think I posted about them on one of the first threads about bad baby names

what’s wrong with them? Bring back the old school American names like Cody, Cory, dillan, Jesse
