Seven, Sunday Molly, Tu Morrow. What do these random words all have in common? Well, they’re inscribed into some baby’s passport and will follow them for the rest of their lives. Unless they decide their parents were a little bonkers and it’s better to change that name for good.

Celebrities are notorious for giving their babies weird names, like Kylie Jenner’s daughter Stormi and Katie Holmes and Tom Cruise’s daughter Suri. And they’re not alone. It seems like the weird name trend is not going anywhere, but you wonder when parents cross their line with their ingenuity.

“What horrible, ridiculous names have you heard parents choose to call their children?” asked someone on Ask Reddit, and the thread amassed 12.7k responses. Below we selected some of the weirdest ones that will make you like if not love your simple, not special, quite boring name.

30 Hilariously Unfortunate Names Parents Actually Gave Their Children, As Shared In This Thread I know a girl named Random. While at an Easter egg hunt years ago (eggs were labeled for each kid), I took the eggs labeled Random thinking they were up for grabs. Random’s parents were unamused to say the least.

Bored Panda spoke with Lynn How, the author of “Positive Young Mind,” an experienced educator and life coach who specializes in supporting educators, parents, and children with improving and preventing of mental health issues. Lynn also runs this Facebook teacher coaching group that offers support in either leaving, changing their mindset, changing their schools or setting healthy work/life boundaries.

Having been an educator for 20 years in 6 schools and in various roles, Lynn has seen a huge amount of various children’s names. “I'm from the UK so our most popular names differ slightly from those across the pond! There are certainly fads when it comes to popular names. A decade ago, for example, I taught 5 Matthews at the same time! Not so many about now in primary school,” Lynn said.

30 Hilariously Unfortunate Names Parents Actually Gave Their Children, As Shared In This Thread I went to high school with a guy named John John John. Yes, his first name, middle name and last name were all “John”.

Update:


This was not in Texas, BC or Ohio, so there are at least several parents who inflicted the same name on their kids.

He was a nice enough guy and owned it. He did sometimes sign his name John3.

30 Hilariously Unfortunate Names Parents Actually Gave Their Children, As Shared In This Thread I work at a college and often go through the new applications to process them, I've seen all kinds.

Most ridiculous name I've seen thus far though:

Starscream Anakin as his first and middle names. He has a normal last name. When I first saw it, I was certain that it was a kid f**king with our application system. Then I met him in person, and he showed me his ID.

His name is legally Starscream Anakin. I get the Anakin part, but of all the Transformers to name your kid after, why on Earth make it Starscream? He was just awful.

“Different cultures have their own most popular list but I would say that in the UK, some traditional names are still very popular, such as Joshua and Jacob.” Moreover, Lynn argues that “for girls, many names that were reserved for the older generation are coming back into fashion, such as Molly and Elsa.”The professional educator added that she has worked in a number of schools and the type of name is very dependent on the demographic of the students.

According to Lynn, names are coupled with identity so it is an important choice and very personal to individuals. “I remember being worried about people liking our chosen names for our children and not revealing them in case others we knew used them first! As a teacher, naming children is harder as there are so many students that you associate with certain names.”

“When naming my children, I considered whether it would look ok on a CV when they are older and whether it sounds ok screamed across a crowded playground,” Lynn recounted. “If you are undecided, use the scream test for your chosen name. For example, shout '*chosen name*, get back here now' at the top of your voice, and see how it sounds.”

30 Hilariously Unfortunate Names Parents Actually Gave Their Children, As Shared In This Thread Well... let's just say that the state I live in doesn't have a significant english-speaking population, especially in the rural regions, despite the official language of the country ( India) being English and most of the urban population being educated. However; I have friends whose parents gave them names like "Benadryl", "Goodbye", "Very helpful" and the absolute worst "Dishwasher". This, however is because people from the rural regions ( especially in the North-East) come to the cities, and see words in ads and billboards that they find pretty and innocently name their children after a variety of brands. I don't always blame them, I had a family friend who came off as very posh and educated, spoke perfect English... but named his daughter Darth Vader. Some of them are just trolling. Do not underestimate people of the hills; they don't take your bullshit, educated or otherwise.

Where I live, South Africa, it is common in the rural black population to be given a second name which is topical at the time of birth. That is why, in tiny places where nothing much happens, babies are often named Happy or Welcome. And some poor sods were named Hitler and Stalin.

Lynn also said that it's lovely for children to have interesting names but added that “sometimes calling them names that are associated with other things can be problematic.” She recounted: “I knew a Gabriel who was far from an angel, for example. I also knew a very unoriginal William Williams. Just consider whether your child will be happy with their name at 25.”

Having said that, the educator concluded that “nothing is set in stone and if children wish to legally change their names, then they can.”

Talula Does the Hula From Hawaii. Yes that really was her name - her parents lost custody of her (yes way!) so her name could be legally changed. In NZ we are not allowed to name children after royalty (e.g. no King, Count, Earl etc) but sure go ahead and name your kid Number 16 Bus Shelter.

I had a good friend when growing up whose name was Gaylord. I have lost count of the fights I got into beating off bullies at school. I've lost count of the beatings I took defending him. They eventually moved to another country and we lost touch. However, the fights and beatings continued as I have a girl's name... (yes I'm a guy)... To this day (I'm 61)... I'm still putting a**holes in their place... Yup still dealing with adolescent adults.

Had a boy in our school named Avonté. Pronounced Avont. Mother insisted the accent made the e silent. She would come completely unglued when anyone said his name wrong. Lady, that’s “Avontay”

Update: IKR?! I have no idea why she didn’t just leave off the e altogether. The sad thing is, she really really thought it would make it silent. She was really angry about it. If she were a nicer person I would have felt sorry for her as I’m sure no one really challenged it until he got to school and people saw it written versus just hearing it. It got to be where after pre-K we’d warn each teacher about how to pronounce it so spare them the wrath and the incorrect grammar lesson from mom but no one could help it.

I met a woman called Formica Dinette Johnson. Her mother had seen a billboard for a cheap tableset (the aforementioned Formica dinette ) thought it sounded beautiful and named her daughter after it.

Knew a boy in America called Satchel...

He changed it as soon as he could, because his mother refused to believe that a satchel was a type of bag.

She thought it was a fantasy name like Aragorn or something...

Leroy Satchel Paige was a great black American baseball player. Broke many barriers & made a huge difference.

My daughter brought a friend home and said “Hey Mum, this is my friend Bovril”. I still think I ought to get an award for pleasantly saying “pleased to meet you.” without bursting out laughing or offering to make soup...

For Americans, Bovril as near as I can tell is a gravy-like substance used as a flavoring in the UK.

I heard many in my time as a sub, but my favorites are still DaBaby, DaLady, and DaPrince. On DaPrince's last day of school, he gave everyone the finger, so I can't imagine he's doing much better.

My ex thought it would be funny to name him Rocky with the middle name Bal so his name would be Rocky Bal Bowler...

Cinnamon sounds like it almost could be a real name. I dunno, it's just a nice sounding word.

The kid’s name was William. Unfortunately for the kid, he had a nickname that was spelled “Liam.” That doesn’t sound so bad until you hear the pronunciation: “Yum.” Like, “Will-Yum.” They called their child “Yum” and spelled it “Liam.” No teacher in my classes with him could ever say his name correctly, so he eventually gave up and we all called him the normal-sounding Liam.

I knew two girls in school, one was named Happy and one was named Buttercup. And no, they were not related, just instances of two ridiculous names. I also knew someone named Caramia, which I guess isn’t a terrible name, just sounds dumb to me.

"cara mia" is Italian for my dear, more or less, and there was a popular song in the 60s that started "cara mia mine", there's a decent chance she was named after the song.
