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!

My last name is pinion- when I was pregnant people were trying to get me to name my child "mya pinion" for girl or "noah pinion" for a boy.....but I didn't ;)

I grew up living next to the Rabbit family. Believe it or not, The dad was Peter, wife was Helen and yes...the 3 kids were Peter, Jr, Jack and Bunny. I went to school with Jack who got beat up almost every day from K-12th grade. :-)

I once had a woman whos last name was Seeman, she named her baby Richard. Not so weird. That is until I found out the baby's nickname was going to be Dick. Dick Seeman. I feel bad for that poor kid when he grows up.

Meh, my dad's name was Dick, and our last name was the slang word used for a particular part of male genitalia, He thought it was hysterically funny, though of course as kids, WE were mortified.

You never know what people will be sensitive about.

Last year, I had a woman who had twin boys. I don't like to this out, but she was black. Their kids were named Orangejello and Lemonjello. They were pronounced "orran-gel-owe and lem-awn-gel-owe".

One of my good friends helped deliver a baby later named Shithell. Poor child...

If it were spelled and pronounced "Sheetell" or "Shettell" it would be okay...

Funny story:

In the Jewish faith, when a boy is bar mitzvah'd, the Rabbi refers to him as Master...and then the last name. The boy I knew that was bar mitzvah'd had the last name of Bader.

You put it together...:lol2:

There was a patient in the hosptial whose name was Extrafine

I went to MA school with a Latabia. That sometimes made for comical moments with substitutes or on the first day with new teachers.

my husband really wanted to name our boy seth. so what's the problem? our last name is poole and can you imagine if you the poor boy had a lisp???

DH thought it was hilarious, me: not so much. Just imagine the torture.
