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!

There is a little boy in the next town from ours named ESPN. That is his actual name! His parents need to be slapped.

Specializes in Med/Surg.

I had a patient during my OB rotation who named her baby boy Jalexander (pronounced exactly as spelled). Sigh. :lol2:

Niveah (Heaven backwards) is getting really popular here in Southern California in the 15-19 year old demographic.

Areola is the other name I just don't understand.

I think I missed the humor in this one ... :confused: ... I keep repeating it to myself but nothing is registering, I'm trying to see how much worse it is than Saliva or Placenta :D

I went to elementary school with a girl named Sunshine Honeybutter (I'm dead serious....how crazy!) and I went to high school with a girl whose last name was Swallows....she got married to a guy with the last name of Seaman...and kept her maiden name as her middle name (obviously she wasn't thinking!) Now she's Anna Swallows Seaman! That too, is for real. How funny!
