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!

Most recently....Iceeona. Icee for short. I stopped at a 7/11 as soon as my shift was over and bought an Icee because I'd been thinking about it the whole time.

so i went back and checked out one of the local hospital nursery websites, just because it's been a while and i needed some laughs. i noticed what looks to me to be a "new low" in choosing your child's name: copy (with only slight variation) the name that was given to the last baby that your ob/cnm delivered earlier that day! :eek:

at first, i thought this next pairing might have been twins (less than an hour apart, same midwife), until i clicked through and saw that they had different parents! (the first page just lists the baby name and the time, you have to click the link to see the parents' names):

I also found these names from our local hospital's nursery... they may not have copy-catted the family that delivered just before them, but they sure didn't pick winners -- I feel SO SORRY for these little babies, being saddled with these names!

Oh well, at least the kid won't spend all of kindergarten learning how to spell it.

My hubby does social security disability and he SWEARS that he PERSONALLY has seen people named Lemonjello and Orangejello (pronounced le-mohngello and or-ahngello). I don't know.

My wife swears this is true, she says she went to high school in OP with them. I have never seen them in any yearbooks, though.

I once met a man named Stephan who saw to it that his three children were named Stephan, Steven, and Stephanie. Guess he wanted them ALL named after HIM. At least that's somewhat better than the famous Michael who named his two sons Prince Michael 1 and Prince Michael 2 (and then nicknamed the latter...of all things...Blanket...no wonder that poor kid is reportedly harrassed mercilessly by an older male cousin he's now living with...)
