What's the weirdest baby name?

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!

Well I can remember babysitting for an OB nurse when I was 16 and she came home one night telling me that this lady had delivered twins and seeing the name cards in the bassinets thought someone had already named them so they were forever to be called BoyA Brown and BoyB Brown.

I have a friend names Eartha and her sisters are Nova and Suna

My cousins names are Vayda, Michon, and Declan

Names of children I have known or are in my childrens classes at school: Miracle On-earth Daily, Nauticca, Avolon, Co-Co, Lovely, Diamond, Champagne, Emerald, Levi, Legend, Omni ... Ill think of some more probably

My step-sister named all of her kids with B names and all of their middle names are Lee. Their last name starts with a T, so all of their initials are BLT including her husbands! Lisa

My daughter did the same initial thing, the boys are Rase, Ryder and Rowdy and all have middle names that begin with K. Kinda glad to hear she is not the only one to do this.

I went to school with a family that had four girls and one boy. Their names were Debbie, Diane, Donna, Darlene, and Fred. We felt honor-bound to help the brother keep the family tradition by re-christening him Derf. He used that name all through high school. I'm pretty sure the job world helped him change back.

when I worked L&D, we had a baby named "Tequila Rose"

my kids have pretty unusual names for this day and age - John and Michael

for some reason, no one can grasp the concept that "John" is not really short for "Jonathan" and he gets called that all the time.............

I went to high school with a girl named "Lisa" - she was the youngest of 5 kids - her older siblings were Linda, Lorna, Loretta, and Larry

also knew a family who had Jeff Jr, John, Jacob, Joel, Jeremy, Joshua, James and then there were their two sisters, Mari and Carrie

I have cousins in Canada with names like "Jade", "Jesse James", "Storm", "Deneige" (which was actually my grandmother's middle name), and "Alphee"
