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!

Don't you feel sorry for that kid's softball coach?

"Who's on first...."

I heard of Twins Named Evian and Dissani.....................

Some of us were discussing Roy Orbison on another website, and I looked him up to find out when he died. (1988 - had no idea it had been that long.)

His father's name was Orbie Orbison.

my chemist daughter wants to name daughters "Ethyl" and "Ester"!!!

Considering that the old fashioned names are coming back for girls, that might not seem so weird.

When I was taking organic chemistry, I saw a story in a magazine somewhere about a woman named Methylene. This was around the time that I saw a reference to the movie "Psycho" and read that word as P-S-Y and an aldehyde group.

In my town we have an Ob/Gyn PA named Haref Agina. Say it out loud. Yep... Im serious...

OK who ever the Creative individual is that thinks "la-ah" should be pronounced "ladasha" should be forced to take an IQ test to check for MR. In English that punctuation when used in writing words is called a HYPHEN!

Ok I'm going to spaz the next time I hear about:

the Jello twins, Sh1thead, Meconium, Female, lady parts, or placenta, or another STD kid.

Now so far the hands down funniest has to of been "sexybird"

I personally Hate how the new big names is Isabella (can we say stripped) and the nick name we'll call her Bella I Know WAY too many dogs with that name. Isabelle isn't nearly as bad and it's only one latter away

People should lay off naming their kids names that the family dog has: Bella, precious, lady, queen etc.

Also what is with the trend of naming your child a "childish" nickname? They're going to need to be an adult someday Hard to take serious a guy named something like "Mikey"

I'm not in L&D yet (hope too soon) However here are some of the more out there names I've seen:

Lyria

Mohamed Mohamed

Phuc (yup pronounced how you think)

ming-ming poo (she was actually not a patient but a Professor I had in college)

Harold Sachs (Yep Harry Sacks, principal in middle school of all places)

Richard Head III (his parents, grandparents, and great grandparents all deserve a slap for that one, and so does he for actually responding to people who called him dick)

Hmm can't think of much else @ the moment

What is with the sudden facination with turn of the 19th and 20th century girls names? Personally I know they are popular but I think they are so hideous something you would name a cow literally

Bessie

Emma

Ella

Ruth

Jude

Etta
