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!

You won't believe this one, but . . . my microbiology professor swears it is true. He was doing a research project on newborns, and some were so young they had no name yet. The arm band had "Female" and the last name. After a couple of weeks, one of the kids still had no name, or so he thought. The nurse working with the child explained that the parent like the name on the arm band, and named the little girl "Felmalie" pronounced Fe-may-lie!

My wife just told me about a young kid named Myster. His original name had been "Mr." but a judge forced the parents to change the spelling.

The child had two brothers named.....Te'Kevin and Tenacious.

My mother in law is a first grade teacher, and she always gets a lot of...interestingly named students.

Myking, HerMajesty, Hiskingdom, Sparkles, Peaches, Glitter, Vodka, Sterling (middle name Silver)... It's like these people just pick the last thing they see or think about before they pop the baby out and go with it. And then there's always the people that name their baby Baby Girl or Baby Boy... Did ya just not have time to look through a baby name book?!

While working in a children's hospital I had young parents....the dad had a tattoo of a pot leaf on his arm, mom had one on her thigh.....so it comes as no surprise that the baby was named "Mary Juana"! I kid you not!:rckn:

Heavenly LaMiracle - first and middle name.

Good idea or great idea?

One of my friends said last night that when she was having one of her six :eek: kids, there was a couple on the floor who were really into motorcycling and named their daughter Kickstart with a conventional middle name. She didn't know what they were planning to actually call her.

We were talking about strange baby names at work last night, and someone mentioned a baby named Marijuana Pepsi. I wondered if the poor thing had a brother named Steroid Cheetos.

I think the little sister was Meth Yoohoo.

There were a couple of uncles, too. Heroin Oranjello and Coke Coke.
