A friend recently posted a picture of her new grandson on Facebook, named Coleman. 😖 I really dislike surnames, especially occupation type names, as first names.
Just makes me think of mustard, to be honest.

I send a lot of letters to toddlers in my local authority as part of my job and today I had a Donald MacDonald.

Bruce just reminds me of Bruce Bogtrotter from Matilda, the chocolate cake boy! 🤣

such an odd name to think suits a baby boy! i also remembered recently that I went to school with a couple of boys named Gavin, and again, who looks at a baby and thinks "looks like a Gav!" 🤣🤣
I have a 3 year old relative called Keith. I do understand wanting a name that doesn't sound too babylike when you're an adult. But who looks at a baby and thinks Keith?

Stepsister made a huge effort to hide her baby name. So we were all expecting a huge surprise or even a nice tribute to a relative. The name was Isabelle Sophia…

A combination of two of the most plain, common names at the moment and she hid it for months 🙄

I saw a McKeira yesterday. Parents obviously couldn't decide between McKenzie and Keira.
Instead, they've ended up with something that sounds like a new addition to Maccy D's board.

I’ve seen Nevaeh-Mai twice as well, how can people justify naming their baby ‘I am heaven’🤣

The Jack and Daniel reminds me years ago of someone I knew who called their boy Harley because his dad was called David - Harley, David's son 💀 And they explained it every time someone asked what their children were called, proud as fuck.

Just seen a baby called Graylynn (gremlin?) on FB. Taken in her dad's arms showing his tattoo of her as an embryo with a clock representing the date she was implanted. I just can't.

I'm new here but I had to share this. I work in a dental practice and 2 brothers came in with their mum and they were called Koden Kenzie Kelvin (KKK :oops: ) and the other one was Jaylen Jayden Jackson. The Mum insisted we address them by all 3 of their names......fucking madness🥴

i actually quite like Wren, but equally there are names which just don't work, based on a child’s appearance. I was once told that I was almost named Willow, but my parents decided against it, because they felt the name would suit a tall child with a slim-build, and wouldn't have been so fitting if I had been a short kid with less of a willowy physique! i guess it's hard to predict if you love a name whether it will actually suit your child as they grow, but some names are somewhat unfortunate as they don't really fit the child. obvs it depends on the name, but i agree that Wren gives me dainty little waif kinda vibes. 🤷🏻‍♂️
Wren just gives me kitchen vibes
