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 went to school with a girl named Twila (one L, I think) That was in the 1950s. My husband just remarked that he, too, went to school with a Twila in the 1950s--same state. different county

I went to school in the 50's with a Twila also! I always thought it was a pretty name.

Consider this! The baby's name was "Le-a' We all thought the baby's name was, of course "Lea', spelled strangly, but hey, everyone is spelling things weird these days. Oh no!!! The family told us the '-' wasn't silent!!! So the name was acutally pronounced....."Le,dash,a". Go figure.

The weirdest name was The Squirel E. They were going to name the baby just plain Squirrel....but decided to put The in front of it so that he could go by the initials T.S. just in case he preferred it when he got older. The middle name is E. I wouldn't believe it if I hadn't seen it.

Psalm... yup, and... my husbands niece named her baby Zero... No, I am unfortunately not kidding!

I went to school with a girl named Precious(first name) Melody (middle name). I'll leave out her last name because it would be incriminating.
