About 1/2 way down that list I found myself saying “What the He**”
Some need my 2 cents though.
Harlie~ any little girl named that should come with a pole and pasties.
Skyah~ Huh, sounds like someone who is a Star Wars fan with a speech impediment.
Katilane Marhea~ diarreah…. I feel for her when she is learning to write her name.
Remington~ I almost Named Colton this… Ben explained he would be called “Rem the fem” at school. So I re-thought my decision. I was in love with Remington Steele.
Tenzing~ oh, that poor poor child. He will get beat up every day at school. and will spend the rest of his life explaining to people about his name. I am not even sure how it is said.
Thanks for doing that BTW! It was fun!

maybe if he’s asian he could get away with it…maybe.
also, tildon? you know what his nickname will be? tildo…enough said.
those are terrible terrible names…
also bonnie, i’m glad you named colton colton. remington steele wouldn’t have worked. and it sounds kind of like the name of a factory. he would’ve caught a lot of flack for that methinks.
I was just talking about this. I know someone who is named Valeria. It, along with some of the names on your list, sound like some disease you could pick up from a toilet seat.
Let’s not forget Clamidia from Amy’s old work.
Colton is still laughing over tildo! What a dork!
Clamidia. I pray you are kidding me with this. And seriously, wouldn’t you change your name?
Not kidding, ask Amy!
When I worked at Primary’s we had a list of wacky names. Chlamydia was one of the girl names. (I’m still hoping the family was foreign and didn’t realize what it meant) There were also jems like Ajax (boy), Orange Peel, Sweet Peaches, Joyride (girl), KobeBryant California (girl), and Bodacious (boy).
this is nick.
you have got to be kidding me about the girl named joyride….those parents need to be tracked down and curbed…
that is so terrible….
Lyn knew of a Shithead pronounced shi-thead. For Real!
Holy freakin cow. What is up with people! My friend’s niece is named EmmaLeigh. Stupid right? Way to take a really nice, simple name and complicate it beyond reason!
BTW poor little Shithead pronounces his name by blending the ‘th’ together as in ‘this’ and the ‘e’ and ‘a’ are separate syllables. (ey-ad) So it sounds nothing like what it looks, but I’m thinking the first day of every school year sucks rocks for him.
