What are some of the funniest names that you guys and gals have seen at work? I'll start

Twins : Roderrick and Roderricka,

Twins : Autumn and Fall

Girl : Asshole (A-sole-lee)

P.s. This thread is just for fun.....

Specializes in Neonatal ICU (Cardiothoracic).
I don't know if this has been mentioned yet...but does anyone else notice a trend in combining the Mother and Father's name to make baby's name?

Yup, had a "Joshuary" recently. Joshua+Mary. Sigh.

My new personal favorite...La-A pronounced "LaDasha"

Specializes in Neonatal.

"Journey". Not THAT weird but come on.

Specializes in Neonatal.

I asked a FOB the other day what his newborn daughter's name is: "Sayree". Huh?!? She's a 34-weeker in our NICU and he kept calling her name over and over: "Sayree....Sayree. Sayree?" Hello dude, baby's sleeping and is exhausted from the delivery. Plus, she's probably ignoring you because you're calling her something STUPID!!!

Specializes in Nurse Scientist-Research.

Latest addition; little dude named "Twister", it's a theme though, older sister is named "Rain".

Specializes in NICU.

Twins (boy and girl) named Jack and Jill.

Every time we say their names we all start hearing the rest of the nursery rhyme ...

Specializes in NICU, Pediatrics/PICU.

hahaha I love this thread...I don't work in NICU but I see enough patient names to be completely amazed by some of them!

Specializes in PICU, ICU, Transplant, Trauma, Surgical.

We were discussing this very topic at work the other day.

NICU (pronounced, as you would, nick-yew)

Shithead (pronounced Sha-theed)

Tut (pronounced Toot)

Lovely.

I know this thread hasn't been active for a while, but I thought I would throw in a few names. Not a nurse yet, but these are names I have encountered over the past few years...

Went to Winter Camp as a child with a blonde haired girl named Meadow Lark (surname), the offspring of two local hippies. Sweet as can be, though.

Knew a boy in high school named Panic. Ironically, he was the very quiet kid who never really made friends easily. He had a younger brother in my sister's grade named Fury. Can you tell that his parents looked like former Hell's Angels?

Heard a story on the radio, maybe two years ago, about a teenage girl who tried to name her newborn twins Thing 1 and Thing 2. Why? "Well, babies like Dr. Suess, and I wanted to give them names they would like!" Needless to say, someone intervened, and she ended up naming them something slightly more normal.

Met a woman this last week named Trillion Leia Kirk. For those of you not familiar with Sci Fi, Trillion was a character from The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galazy novels, Leia is Princess Leia from Star Wars, and Kirk as in Captain James T. Kirk from Star Trek. (Although, in her defense, Kirk is her married name, original surname was much more common). You could definitely call her the Queen of the Nerds with a name like that, although, I have to say, I really liked her name. *:p

Have a godson named Basciano, we call him Little Boss. *;)

And I've babysat many a Jayden, Brayden, Caiden, and so on.

Two baby boys: Clinton and Bush...:icon_roll

I've noticed a trend toward da' names. Da'Finest, Da'Baddest, Da'Lovely.
