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!

there is a very large family that is mostly sons and only a couple daughters. near the beginning of the line was fred tucker jr. that isn't the weird part. about 10 kids later they named the latest boy

junior fred tucker. junior fred, as he was called, was in my class in school.

well when you say these names it sounds like "what is that" then you see the spelling and realize how messed up this is...

1) pronounced oo-reen (urine)

2) pronounced ahb-su-day (abcde)

3) pronounced suh-phyllis (syphilis)

4) playa

5)not weird but cute i thought mom is Ruby, babies were Jade and

diamond

mykenvaughn

pronounced... mike in von

former coworker named her kid that...

we had a couple that we delivered one time (who my husband worked with) and kid you not they named their baby girl Cora Vette (corvette) he was a mechanic.. We still cant believe they did that.... but then again our last name is camp and my husband jokingly said we should name our daughter summer..... but we didnt!!

My friend Tammi always wanted to nickname her future first son "Skip"...just liked it. Then she married a man whose last name is Church.

ok - i just got this in my email. i am in classmates online, and i got a notification that several people had signed my guestbook yesterday (lord only knows why! lol) anyway - i do not know or remember this individual, but his name is "leamon tart" and his profile is complete with history and pictures, so i guess he's the real deal. or someone with way too much time on his hands. my vote is for the real deal though.

and there was another individual on the list whose last name was also "tart" - but the first name was not significant in making any kind of strange combination...........

The little girl's name was spelled "la - a" and pronounced la-dash-a! Why name your kid ladasha and spell it with an actual dash?

That's similar to what my friend's friend named her baby..."t-a." spelled just like that, but pronounced "ta-dash-a".
