What's the weirdest baby name?

Specialties Ob/Gyn Nursing Q/A

Hi, I was wondering about some of those weird names that you've probably encountered in L&D and PP. I remember when I had my maternity rotation a couple of weeks ago, one of the nurses said she remembers a patient that named her child Placenta. I couldn't believe it that some child has to live his life named after disgusting afterbirth!

I suppose Candida's an okay name as long as the last name isn't Albicans. LOL

Former governor of Texas James Hogg DID actually name his daughter Ima. You can look this up for yourself! I am just happy that he didn't have a second daughter....

Not a baby name, but there is a Dr. Foley in my town....he's a UROLOGIST!!LOL

John Weiner. He's a doc in urology!!

Aja very common name among the black population were I live their newest is Ashanti after a rap singer

What exactly is this supposed to mean? So now we are picking on specific cultures now? I've heard that name around and none of the people were black.

Teresa

I went to school with an America and a Unique and my friend (a pharm tech) had a patient whose name was LaPrecious. He also knew a LaCharlotte.

Why not LaAtrocious...?

P.S. to Bronco:

we have a Dr. Beaver who is an OB/GYN. No kidding.

:chuckle

At the school where I work we had students called O r a n g e j e l l o and L e m o n j e l l o. 4 syllables each. Can you imagine.

I remember a baby being named---something like--

2 cool for u

Our female Chaplain where I used to work was called Chrys, FINALLY found out what that was short for...

CHRYSANTHIA ANASTACIA (first name pronounced similar to chrisanthimum, second ah-nah-stah-CEE-ah)

Also, that baby name book I mentioned earlier had only one word after the name Hortense...NO!

oh Give me a break not picking on the black population just stating very common names in my area for them not weird

My mom had an aunt named Venetia Leonora Theodosia, and her last name was SMITH!

This week our newspaper ran a story about a 14 yr old killed by a drive by shooting while asleep next to her 2 month old daughter. The 14 yr old had delivered at our hospital. She had named her daughter "Abcedey" (ABCDE)
