Hey Pandas, What Are Some Of The Most Unfortunate Names You Have Come Across In Your Life? (Closed)

Everyone has a different story… and some of them are truly hilarious! I'm pretty sure most of us have had the chance to hear something weird or silly when it comes to people's names or maybe even something that could've left one outright confused as to what just happened.

So, Pandas, tell us the first thing that popped into your mind when reading the title—we will be waiting for your answers in the comments!

Make sure to keep your answers respectful and PG friendly!

Shame on those parents. If they wanted to see "funny" name combinations, then they should have had their OWN names legally changed, and then given their children more conventional names. This reminds me of a long ago governor of Texas, James Hogg. He governed from 1881 - 1885. He named his daughter, Ima Hogg. Although, legend has it that she had a sister named Ura Hogg, this has never been proven. (Perhaps some joker's wishful thinking.)

Chinese and Korean names usually have their surnames first which would be correct as Guan Xin. Xin Guan would be the way it is written in Westernized writings. So, whoever the person was is technically telling the teachers the correct way they (the person) say their name.

I used to work at a bank. One day a man, who was foreign from an Asian country, came in. When I pulled up his account I saw that his last name was “Her.” I do not remember his first name, but I vividly remember the other name on the account, which I assume was his wife, was “Dang.” “Dang Her.”

Another time a girl came in and made a deposits. Her first name was “Pornpen.”

Perhaps these were lovely names in their countries of origin (I 100% know they were immigrants or studying abroad from conversations I had with them) but some things just do not translate well!

My family name is Alcock (originally Allcock before immigrating to US). First name isn’t bad, but in the age of work email having your name, I was unfortunately stuck with balcock until we switched email a while later. Oh, and that last name sucks no matter your gender. My bro got a whole lot of “no balls” jokes, and I’m female....

I was named after my dad's sister, my Aunt Morna who had no children in her 40's. And thought not likely to in 1954. She was named for the time of day that she was born, in the morning. I had an Aunt Twyla (twilight) and Aunt Evelyn (evening). I never liked the name so I go by Lee.

In first grade I knew a girl whose name was literally the word Beautiful. She was so proud of her name, I was in awe that was a name that could exist! But nowadays I look back and hope no one made fun of her for it. Knowing what I know now, older kids would've probable bullied her...called her name stupid...maybe worse. I just hope that never happened.

YES, and i tell that Pierre Noel is like santa claus. IT IS in france. I get downvoted and it was not a joke, this is real, but a corgi or someone telling something about covid... it is a trend. Come on here in europe we don't care about breeds, and we are less targeted by covid? strange. It must be an oligarchy move
