Names You Can't Stand #8

[EvilJigglypuff]

I’m sure they’ve been mentioned a thousand times but just dropping in my continued hatred for Alfie and Archie. Horrid

I hope I don't offend anyone on here. But the name Nevaeh. Heaven spelt backwards. There's 3 in my daughters school.

Know a girl who’s child’s middle name is Aloha

She won't know if she's coming or going.

I know of brothers called Teddy and Eddie. Not particularly bad names in themselves but ridiculous for brothers.

 

[Borntorun]

Personally, I could never imagine naming a child Lucy. I just think they’d end up growing up into the kind of adult that sings along to the music played over the speakers in shops

 

[Sir Lancelot]

Used to know a girl called Candida.

Just seen these comments on a random fb post

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!"

My friend’s partner is called Gav and he likes to shave his pubes

I used to work with a lady who had two boys called Levi and Nike. Nike was pronounced with a Y at the end - Nikey

I was in Winchester 5/6 years ago, and just as I was walking back to the train station, a couple of kids (8/10 ish), came running out of McDonald's and straight across the one-way system missing a bus by mere inches. Mum hurried out and chastised them while the rest of us put our hearts and stomachs back in the usual places. I will swear on my kid's lives that Winchester Mum said "Ocelot, Mauve... don't you EVER run off like that again."

Had to quickly dive into McD's so I didn't wet myself laughing.

I don’t like Freya , sorry to anyone named Freya , it makes me think of a frail person

Just spoken to somebody on the phone called Katriona. I've seen the name plenty of times before, but never had to address anyone with it. I pronounced it Kat-ree-oh-na. She immediately corrected me, "it's Katrina".

What's the "o" for then?!

 

[Donnavanessa]

Just seen a Corrie actress has called her newborn Doris (her other daughter is called Hilda apparently). Each to their own but IMO they are such ugly names. Poor kids.

Just had to take a break from work as I nealt choked on my breakfast. Currently dealing with a "Kal-El". For those who don't know, it's Superman's name on planet Krypton. It's what Nicholas Cage called his kid, and it always appears on those "worst celebrity child names" lists.

Had a brother and sister called Charlie and Lola last week.

I love my job

 

[Blair-Waldorf]

Cassandra.
Hate the name.
When ever I see or hear it I just picture Cassandra from Only Fools and Horses and man, she had a weepy miserable face you'd want to slap.
So now, it's ruined all Cassandras for me.

Oh god I know a Cassandra she’s a moaning fuck

Phone call from a lady today, to say she's had another baby.

Me: What's the baby's name?
Them: It's Stevie hyphen Blue
Me: Is that Stevie spelled S-t-e-v-i-e?
Them: No, it's S-t-e-e-v-i-i
Me: OK, and is it B-l-u-e?
Them: No, it's B-l-e-u
Me: Oh so it's like the French word for blue?
Them: No it's not French, it's just blue.

Baby's surname was also hyphenated with 2 really unfortunate surnames. Think Grimethorpe-Shufflebottom. Poor kid.

 

[Nutsymom]

The comments section was hilarious. One thought baby's name was actually "Texting typo"

 

[miaaaa]

I know twins - Martha and Arthur. Gorgeous names but not for siblings!

 

[AliceInWanderLost]

randomly stumbled across a family with a daughter named Bellanor - presumably her parents couldn't decide between Eleanor and Bella, so simply....merged the two together.
