True story:

Remember Poison? Ok, but do you remember the drummers name? Well it was Rikki Rockett... But of course thats not his real name. You wanna know what it is?

Taken from here and other sites as well.

Richard Alan Ream, but his friends just call him Dick Ream

If I'm lying, I'm flying...

skylar/skyler bugs for me some reason. sounds like a cutesy-artsy-fartsy name, like something a girl would squeal annoyingly when she see's her boyfriend or something... ooooo hiiiii skylerrrrr!

Oh man, yes. Add Skylar/Skyler to the list. I've never met anyone named Skyler/Skylar that wasn't an asshole.


I wonder if anybody has named their kid Lucifer. That seems like it'd be pretty bad if you were religious.

My cousin Skylar isn't an asshole, but he does weigh nearly 400 pounds. Not too well-adjusted.

My dad has a name that has always made me think, "WTF was grandma thinking!??!!??" ... Alvin Henry. What did he end up going by? Bud. heh

My great uncle Ade (Adolph) had to call himself "Pete" during WW2 (he was in the US military at the time.)

Edit: My brother and his wife are totally into anime, and named their daughter for one of the characters. I sh1t you not. It's not a common name anywhere in the world, either.

One of my neighbor's friends named his son Harley David.

how about Hermione? "herr-my-oh-nee" Young lady form Harry Potter movies. Quite unique but don't think I would plop that name on a daughter tho..

Is that really how it's pernounced? I haven't seen any of the movies (though read all the books) and in my mind its always been "her moine" (her as in a lady, moine as in DesMoines).

Ágnes?
That's a pretty common name in Hungary.
It's all right, but not a casual name for an American, IMHO.

My daughters are named Satya Morrigann and Esme Astrid.

Moonunit, GOD DAMN YOU FRANK ZAPPA!!!!!!

What about parents who name their sons "Guy"?

Yeah, all those names are for 90 year olds.

Agnes would always remind me of Agnes Skinner

I dont know what you guys are thinking but I think hunter is an awsomne name. I have a cousin named hunter. Also if I ever have a son I want him to be named Kane.

-Xionide

 

[PanzerIV]

Another thread that had me LMAO.

Names you couldn't pay me to give my kids:

Male - Baron, Abe, Wallace, Brice, Bubba (I hate hate that name with a passion), Chester or Clyde.

Female - LaWanda, Marge, Madge. Nor Porsche or Mercedes which sound like stripper names.

A season. Never ever name your kids a season. And Brianna is the 17th most popular girls name for 2003. I think that's a pretty bad name. And Jasmine - that's just asking for her to be a stripper or something. LOL. I have weird associations with certain names.

Quick! Somebody hide this post from Tyler!

 

[SuperTool]

Misty Hyman.

That would be fine if you're french, then it'd be pronounced 'ghee'.


Other than that, I don't think Bertha is popular any more.

 

[Fudssa]

If your last name is Dover you do not want to name your son Ben.

 

[brigden]

I would say 90% of people give there kids stupid names. The same percentage of people, coincidencally, are morons.

 

[ironcrotch]

Larry, or Bertha.

"AWW, how cute, come look at baby Larry"

 

[ohtwell]

Virgil


That names just sounds weird to me.


: ) Amanda

 

[cricky]

Real people's names that I have known: Pepsi, Tag, Spot and Drum. The only decent one of those would be Drum. Who in god's name calls their kid Spot?

I imagine we will see a lot of kids named after cars pretty soon. I'm sure we will have to add a new peg to the personalized keychain rack. Ellen, Emily, Eric, Escalade...

 

[BatmanNate]

Corbit
Elise

Two couples that I know named their respective children that and it pisses me off to no end. Corbit sounds like a fish, maybe a trout, and any kid named after a car just sucks. I would also avoid androgenous names. If I have a son I'll name him Hans.

 

[bigshot]

bad ass son names:

nate, sid, damien, rocco

daughter

jen, victoria (by far the most sexist name!), may, april, leslie, angelina~~
