My high school boyfriend's name was Sky. His middle name was Walker, which his parents swear was a family name and the pairing with the first name was unintentional.

5/7/2014 7:16:06 AM

^^there was a lady being interviewed last night in connection to the Nigerian story and her name was Comfort.

5/7/2014 9:12:46 AM

a lady on wheel of fortune tonight has a 6 month old named Seven.

7.

5/7/2014 8:55:56 PM

was her last name Costanza?

5/7/2014 8:56:42 PM

My friend has a cousin named Six. I didn't really think it was too odd.

5/7/2014 9:02:05 PM

Only if that were his middle name, and his first name was Nikki

naming your child a number is pretty damn odd

5/7/2014 9:16:00 PM

Six is from Blossom

I know people think a lot of awful names are urban legends but there's a reason why I stopped asking our patients if they had any names picked out. Ugh. People think it's the black people with the worst names but I disagree. They're usually consistent in the style of names but it's the trashy white girls and the rich IVF women with the worst names. One name that I'll never forget is Sigourney Beavers. As far as one of the worst made up names, Amsy Pelaura is a memorable one (they couldn't decide between penny and Laura, their grandmothers' names).

Girl I went to college with named her son Titus

5/8/2014 6:40:47 PM

Old roommate named his kid Jaxon Alexander. Last name has an X in it too, so I imagine that a triple-X neck tattoo is in his future.

Titus isn't uncommon these days. It was ranked in the 300's as the most popular names of 2012.

If you don't self-identify as a basic bitch, your Facebook friends are basic bitches, and that implies you are a basic bitch.

Gyno.

Pronounced like Gino. Good move, parents.

8/1/2014 3:05:41 PM

Not weird...but my sister is giving her kids family/country names.

My niece is named after my Grandmother. My Grandmother's name was Hattie-Merle. My niece's name is Hattie (thank god they didn't add the Merle).

My soon-to-be nephew is named after my bro-in-law's grandfather or father...I can't remember. He'll be Hackney.

Can't say I'm in love with either of the names. But I won't love the kids any less!
