As many of you know by now, Kim Kardashian had her baby. As if you couldn't miss all the annoying coverage over every single detail. They named that poor kid North West. What are some of the funniest/weirdest/most unusual baby names you have seen? Could be a patient or someone you know in your personal life. And if you are someone with one of those odd names did you just learn to live with it or would you change it.
QuoteHonestly I don't believe anyone is named ***, la-a, lemonjello, orangejello, female, abcde. Let's not post the same urban legends over and over again like the other thread.
Not an urban legend!! I worked peds on an Air Force Base & we have these names.
Abcde (pronounced abcedy) mom was ****** when I said her middle name because I thought the computer made an error.
We have multiple families who's kids have the same first name.
Darius Jake

Ah, almost forgot my patient with the first name of Semen. The last name makes it even better, but I wont post it. He is foreign, though I don't know which nationality.

Most likely he is Russian or Ukranian. I don't see anything wrong about this name as it is taken from the Bible (English version is Simon). Take care.

Go ahead and do this if you like. I'm not really sure what do you mean by your reply. If you don't like foreign names, suck it up.

So what?
Oh, I DO like "foreign names"; in fact both my children have them! Just not the ones which denote bodily fluids, nether regions, or objectionable motions.
In the US "Semen" is not a kid's name. Sorry. But thanks for the SEMantics lesson!

Knew a girl names Marida--dad was Marvin, mom was Ida, put them together and get Marida.
Went to school with a Rainbow--in the late 80's, so you know she got teased for Rainbow Brite.
Mom worked with a Harry Pitts.
Sis has an in-law who emigrated, name was Horronomous Peter, but they had to Americanize it, so they renamed him Harry Peter.
Saw a name in the phone book of Richard Head. You know what the nickname for Richard is, right?
My nephews half sister is named Winter Isis. Her sister is Hallow Eve Ghostly.

I once had a coworker who named her son Lemon (pronounced le-MON).
Working in the prison system you see some weird names too. I have seen a Precious, a Master, a Lawyer and a Senator. Also a Jairus (not sure where that one came from). No wonder they wound up doing time.
