Musk is a cruel bastard. There are other really terrible names, but that has to be the most idiotic.

Like if your parents named you Shaun Sean Shawn lol

29 Times Kids Didn’t Win The Name Lottery, As Pointed Out By Members Of This Online Group I've twice tried to post this on the tragedeigh Facebook group and haven't been approved because they think I'm bulls***tting, but I have had confirmation on this from several people who lived in my city at the time of this.

My mom taught at a school in the 80s where there was 2 siblings, one named Hallelujahthemessiahiscoming, and Repentorburnforever.

I thought my mom was BSing for years until my coworker told me my mom was a teacher at her school when she was a student in the 80s.i asked my coworker about this, and she said yes, she was a little older than those kids but remembered them because they were in swimming classes at the local pool she was a lifeguard at. She told me her younger brother knew them and said at least one of them got into [illegal substances] later.

Not joking. Was working security in MN and a trucker came in to sign in. As he's writing his name, I glanced at his name. 'Derf'. I felt bad for his childhood.

My daughter has a friend named Lavanderia. I asked her mom how she came up with that name and she said it means lavender in Spanish. 🤦🏻‍♀️. Honey… no. It means laundromat.

Sounds pretty though, it would be a nice name if it did mean lavender.

I got teased as a kid in the 80s/90s for my name. It's Crystal. That's literally banal now compared to some modern names XD The point is, kids will tease and mock other kids for ANYTHING, but don't make it worse by saddling them with something like "Abcde" or "Khaleesi". Incidentally, I was named after a chandelier (not joking), so my name is spelled the basic way one would spell the noun "crystal". The number of times I'd tell someone my name was "Crystal" and then have them write/spell it with a K or an I or H or a combination of all three... whew XD

The first and only time I met a Crystal was ~50 years ago. She was 5 and I was 8. She lived on our street and I just happened to walk to the bus with her a few times. I thought it was a pretty name and told her. Yep, she got bullied because of her name. I don't understand. I got bullied because of my family name. For Pete's sake, is it really our fault???
