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!

Specializes in Tele, Infectious Disease, OHN.

A boy whose first and middle name is Cole Haun. Like the shoes.

Specializes in M/S, home health, LTC, rehab/orth.
Besides probably dozens of Marys, there's Marimae, Maude, Margery, Marjorie, Maybelle, Marcy, Marlys, Marley, Mildred, Myldred, Margene, Melinda, Marcia, Mavis, Marilyn, Marlene, Marlena, and Margaret--all people I met in school at one time or another. Some were students and some were teachers. Interesting that I could only think of one that started "Mi" like your other daughters. These names would all be from the first half of the 20th century.

We have decided on Melody. (3 1/2 year old loved it). Thank you everyone who gave suggestions. :wink2:

Can't say it was a 'weird' name, per se....but one name that I have had at least 2 pts. name their kid was 'precious.' Now, some people may think that's endearing or whatever, but to me it sounds like a name you'd give your poodle or a stripper.

:p

"Precious" just reminds me of a Ring..............................and a little ugly guy who wants it back.

My hockey-playing husband wanted to name our son Zachary Zamboni. :rolleyes: Needless to say I said no. ;)

My husband wanted to name our son John Arthur but I was insistent on naming him after my father Jimmy, so we named our son James Arthur (Arthur is a family name on hubby's side). So three years later my husband wanted to name our second child John Arthur and I told him "ABSOLUTELY NOT.....I AM NOT NAMING MY DAUGHTER THAT!"........I had to go in for emergency surgery and he filled out the birth certificate.......luckily, he did not name her John Arthur......her name is Johnnie Brook!!!!!!!!:smackingf

We had a patient with the first name Female. Thinking she had come in AKA, I asked what her name was and she pronounced it "femahlay".

We had another woman named Clamidia.

One of my co-workers swears (no pun intended as you will see in a minute) she knows a young boy with a name that is pronounced " shath-eed" spelled " Sh**head".

I babysat a girl named Heather Ann G..... Poor thing had to be asked not to put her full initials on her homework.

I have a friend whose name was Titsworthy (and she is rather veluptuous) and when she got married her name changed to Kunzler and when she got divorced it went back to Titsworthy! (last name):imbar
